Not yet. Other features one might expect are:

 - configurable indentation
 - page headers/footers
 - paper format

... and a bunch more I can't think of right now. It has been a while
since PW got a major overhaul, and it has been dragging behind Siag in
development.

I hope that to change Real Soon Now.

I use Siag on NetBSD (among others), but I don't think it matters what
the operating system is. The problem is simply that I never use the
keypad, so it was overlooked. Will be fixed.
