OS/2 e-Zine! - Feature Review: Word Processors

Feature Review: Word Processors

A lot has changed in the OS/2 word processor market over the last 12 months. The introduction of Warp, with its reduced requirements and more user friendly interface and installation, caused home users to jump on the OS/2 bandwagon in significant numbers. This has allowed smaller companies like Clearlook and DeScribe to grab up market share by adapting quickly and offering small and useful applications that home users demand.

At the same time, corporate sales of OS/2 are as strong as ever and Lotus, and now StarDivision, are honing their OS/2 office suites to satisfy today's business demands.

For those who really don't have the need for the raw power of a full-featured commercial word processor, there are alternatives: Escriba is a shareware example of what can be accomplished by a lone individual with determination and the solid foundation of OS/2.
