Re: Swyft Card- What is it?

[Don <leed@sfsu.edu>]

Hello,

	Well, if I recall the Swyft Card was a simple text editor, that 
allowed you to store or work with about 40K worth of data on your Apple 
IIe.  I can't remember the specifics about it, but if you did certain 
keystrokes, you would go to the editor otherwise the IIe would run 
normally.  

	The only reason I remember the card, is when the card was first 
reviewed by A+, there was a big fuss, because the author (David 
something, can't remember, he was the author of the Learning Curve column 
in both A+ and Incider/A+), wrote that "The card teaches an Old Dog (The 
IIe) new tricks."  There was a lot of people who wrote in on that 
article.  Sorry, I can't really recall anything else about the card.
