It's easy to have both Frame and UNIX experience if you use FrameMaker on
a UNIX platform. I graduated from college in May of 1995. I have had an
internship since Sept. of 1994 where we use FrameMaker on UNIX, so I
would feel qualified applying for this position, even though I am
entry-level as a "real" technical writer.
Internships are definitely wonderful things!
