- The atrocious state of binary compatibility on Linux and how to address it
> GLIBC is an example of a "system library" that cannot be bundled with your application because it includes the dynamic linker itself. This linker is responsible for loading other libraries, some of which may also depend on GLIBC—but not always.
Running WordPerfect on modern Linux is done by shipping both of those components:

- A look back: WordPerfect on DOS (2023)
WordPerfect was like vi: forbidding entry point, difficult key bindings, and a joy to use once you got it.
Word for Windows even had a mode that replicated the plain blue screen and behavior of WP5.1 for a few years, which I still miss.
WP also ran on the UNIX of the day, with look and feel very much like the DOS version. Tavis Ormandy got it working on Linux[0].

- WordPerfect for Unix Character Terminals
Perhaps tangential, but there is a Pandoc marco [0] for this program to DOCX via RTF. But I agree, I can do all sorts of things but eventually I am often required to get a document in DOCX. Love Pandoc.

- Ask HN: Interesting TUIs (text user interfaces), maybe forgotten ones?
- Rich word processor for Alpine
Not sure if they'll work on Alpine, but there's WordTsar (a Wordstar clone) and WordPerfect. Alternatively, you could run Word 5.5 in DOSBox.
- Lightweight Word Processor
WordPerfect is a thing, still, and while its way more powerful, some would consider to be pretty clunky in terms of usability.
