Are there any free word processor programs available for OS 9?

Are there any free word processor programs available for OS 9? Been looking around and found some but they seem to be defunct or no longer downloadable. Thanks for any ideas you might have.

Wordperfect was made available as a free application several years ago after they stopped supporting it on Macs, kind of about the time OSX came into existence. It is still a great piece of software for the OS9/Classic environment. You'll have to do a websearch for it since I believe it is hidden somewhere on an academic website, and certainly not on Corel's.

+System 7 Today+ also has +Corel Graphics 8 LE+. It's not word processing, but a nice graphics companion to WordPerfect.

Here's a simple word processing app (iText). The cool thing is that the exact same program exists for Mac OS X and Windows.
