Debernardis:

Here are two recommendations for Mac s/w.

AppleWorks: Word processing, Drafting, Painting, and Spreadsheet programs intimately integrated. Simple and reliable at the expense of a vast array of features.

HyperCard: A powerful ADE. Easy to use. A humongus number of freeware applications.

I haven't tried Basilisk yet, so I don't know if they work. HyperCard may have some issues. The authors sometimes played fast and loose with memory management.

Let me know if you learn anything.

Good luck!
