I found a school journal from 1993, when I was ten years old.
In it, were the following screenshots for operating a BBC Micro computer and/or an Archimedes computer.
In 1993, computer literacy was still coming into its own; software packages like spreadsheets and word processors hadn't gone mainstream -- certainly not in terms of ICT (Information Computer Technology) at pre-GCSE level.
But we did spend a lot of time in school learning about #Pendown, which was a very capable word processor:
I don't recall using Revelation to do anything, but it existed:

According to the forms in my journal, I didn't get very far.
Says it all, really... I was only ten.
