The HomeWord Manual is an illustrated beginner’s guide to Sierra On-Line’s HomeWord word processor for the Commodore 64, teaching users how to load the program, understand the typing and icon-based menu areas, create and edit documents, save and retrieve files, format pages, and print finished work. It explains the program’s main functions—Print, Edit, File, Layout, Customize, and Disk Utility—along with keyboard shortcuts, printer setup, disk care, troubleshooting, and more advanced features such as ASCII characters. The manual is designed for inexperienced computer users, using simple instructions, diagrams, cartoons, a sample printed document, an index, and a reference card to make word processing approachable.
