There's a very nice unicode word-processing program called Unitype
GlobalWriter for use with many different languages which I use for my Greek
and Hebrew. Unfortunately, Coptic has as yet shared forms with Greek which
to my way of thinking do not reflect the Coptic representations so I don't
use unicode for Coptic, but that's not the fault of the program. The program
has keyboards which can be viewed (even used) if you're unsure of which key
to use to enter any particular sign. Unfortunately, it doesn't have all the
bells and whistles that MS Word has, but you can paste from GlobalWriter into
Word or FrontPage or whatever. It can be found at
