** IIGS and Multiscribe Help! **

[antony@carson.u.washington.edu (Anthony Hand)]

Hello!

I wonder if someone could give me some advice.

An acquaintance has both Multiscribe and Beaglewrite for the IIGS and wants
my assistance in using these programs.  Aren't they the same one with 
different names?

This person has a IIGS with 4 megs of RAM, one 3.5" drive and one 5.25" drive.

Here are my questions:

* Will there be disk swapping if she only has the two drives mentioned above?

* If so, is there a way to use a Ram disk to cut down on this swapping?

* I've heard these programs are slow and clunky.  Is this true?

* This person wants to keep it simple.  I've thought about recommending
  the IIE version of Beaglewrite, which will load from a single 3.5" floppy.

If anyone has any info on this they would like to offer, would you mail me at:

            antony@u.washington.edu

Thanks in advance,

Tony
