Wordperfect 9 for Linux also was their last Linux version, and has well
known problems with non-Debian based Linux distributions.
It also was written using a non-accessible graphical toolkit so it won't
work with x-windows screen readers.
The Only wordprocessors currently heading to accessible versions is
StarOffice 7 and OpenOffice 1.1 and later. In the case of OpenOffice only
the version from OpenOffice.org seams to work remotely ok with gnopernicus.
Accessibility in the StarOffice beta I tested was more or less the same as
OpenOffice.
