Beneath Its Elegant
Design Lies A Word
Processing Powerhouse.
Ease into the solid comfort
of the ProWrite environment.
Zip in your text and briskly
format with intuitive menu
and ruler controls. Now slip
into high gear using the
power of keyboard com-
mands. Deftly cut, copy and paste on the
fly, knowing the formidable 100,000-word
spelling checker is checking as you type,
and the vast thesaurus is standing by with
over 300,000 cross references to fine-tune
your ideas. Graceful multiple columns are
at your fingertips with choice of snaking or
parallel text flow. If you're really into per-
formance, you can tackle tedious tasks with
the touch of an F-key using macros. For
you power users, the AREXX port awaits
you. And ProWrite’s print merge feature
eagerly churns out those form letters.
So Intuitive, So Responsive,
You’ve Got To Experience It To
Believe It.
Your thoughts pour effortlessly onto the
screen, then just as fluidly out to your
printer, virtually unaware of anything be-
tween you and the printed page. (After all,
