If this program uses TextEdit it's generally worthless for anything
but the most trivial word processing tasks. There are serious limitations
to TextEdit applications (like only one ruler per document). The fact that
it's called EGOed and not EGOwp doesn't bode well.

If they didn't crash so much the AWGS word procesing and page layout
modules would actually be good/useful.
