Command actions affect only the current `active' document. The `active' document is shown by a checkmark next to the document name in the View-Window sub-menu. The `active' document has a blue window border (`non-active' documents have grey window borders). All open documents are shown on the Window sub-menu (View menu). The total number of documents is limited only by the memory in your Amiga. All Wordworth windows follow Amiga protocol, and just like Workbench, they can by resized, overlapped, moved and so on. Choosing Quit (Project menu) will close all open windows after asking you to save any changes. @EndNode
