Should this page be a bit more structured? In particular, the link TO this page seems to suggest it is "office document format" rather than simply documents. Should there be a list of genres such as: Word Processing document, Spreadsheet, Presentation, etc?

Probably. Other than the few editing guidelines Jason has put up, we're playing things by ear. Feel free to take a stab at it. -- Rhetoric X (talk) 19:11, 31 October 2012 (UTC)
I made a few headings for a start. -- Rhetoric X (talk) 19:18, 31 October 2012 (UTC)

There are a whole heap of old word processors in existence for Apple IIs and Commodores and TRS-80s and Ataris and so on... Wikipedia lists some, but I think they even missed some of them... I remember using one called Screenwriter II on the Apple II (probably still have the disk and manual around somewhere, but don't have a working Apple to run it on), but can't find any reference to that. I don't know any details on the file formats used by any of those, however. Dan Tobias (talk) 17:43, 9 November 2012 (UTC)
