msword: Port of Microsoft Word 1.1a to x64
SMRTR summary
Microsoft Word 1.1a (codename Opus) has been ported to run natively as a 64-bit Windows executable, preserving the original source code and user experience without emulation. The project replaces 16-bit assembly, segmented memory, and Win16 APIs with modern x64-compatible equivalents, while keeping the original C and resource files authoritative. It builds with Visual Studio 2022 and CMake, and includes a full UI test suite.
