Maschinenschreiben Textverarbeitung (Typing and word processing) by Bruno Behne and Albert Titze, Ferd. Dummlers Verlag, 1991), is a German textbook about “typing and word processing on conventional writing machines and text systems, including personal computers”.

And by Siemens in Munich …
The end of the wedge was nigh.
