WordStar for Windows
WordStar for Windows Support Resources
Introduction
WordStar for Windows went out of production in 1994. Since then the company that last produced the program, SoftKey International, has been involved in several mergers. All versions of WordStar are currently owned by The Learning Company (TLC).
Due to the age of the program, and the time lapse since it was last sold by Softkey international, TLC have withdrawn most of the support material from their own Web site. Most of the WordStar for windows support used to be provided by Softkey via the Compuserve WordStar forum, but this is now solely a WordStar user's group.

The WordStar Resource Site!
The WordStar Resource Site! is one of the main WordStar resources and
