The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: Every time the user presses the Enter key, after entering WordPerfect with the /NF startup option, the cursor jumps down to the lower left margin of the screen. Then, the cursor positions itself on the next line at the left margin. Solutions: This problem is occurring because the /NF startup option allows WP to use the machine's BIOS for displaying text on the screen. The Epson Equity 1+ machine has a much slower display speed than WP. The normal way WP writes to the screen is by directly writing to the video memory, using x and y coordinates, and bypassing the BIOS. If the clock speed of the machine is slower, the cursor retrace will be much more noticeable.
