I'm having flashbacks to the late 90s for some reason, WordPerfect was briefly popular on Linux, before StarOffice, OpenOffice, etc., when Corel Linux shipped with it.

I don't remember why I did this, but some time in the last decade I found one of those old binaries and ran it. It was annoying to get a libc5 binary to run on a recent distro. But it worked.
