The Cobol wordprocessor is based on the (tm) WordStar command set.
If you already know WordStar then you already know how to use the
Cobol Wordprocessor.
Here is a list of available commands. Note: the ^ means that you
must hold down the control key while you press the command key.
You may also use the F-10 function key to bring down the menu.
The wordprocessor will automatically assign the .COB extension to your
program.

Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!
This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.
But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
