I got only as far as decompressing some files and then it gives me the prompt without any other messages.

I will post when I get it working. As you may know, there is now a Linux directory on ftp.wordperfect.com with instructions on getting the statically linked SCO binary. I downloaded it this morning, and it runs well. Please note that if you get the plain SCO demo, it is dynamically linked and will not run under linux unless you can somehow get the SCO shared libs (which is going to be difficult to do legally).
