Great info!
Looks like the favorites are Final Writer Words Worth and Pro Write.
Anyone care to comment further?
I like a wide variety of fonts, and considering the abundance of true-type fonts, I use AmigaWriter. Prowrite MIGHT be able to use ttf's with a ttf manager, I think Final Writer uses its own format.
Only downsides to AW are compatability with other M$/Windows based stuff like word or OpenOffice. (It supports RTF, but only ASCII RTF) Also, some minor things missing, like bullet lists (Easily doable with windings.ttf if really needed), and a simpler page-break method (currently, you have to set up a "paragraph" format to start on a new page). Oh, and the auto-hyphenation drives me up the wall. Theres a way to kill it, but the key-combination they documented dosn't work, or was designed for a german keyboard layout. (I'll have to google image search such a keyboard, and see if there's a difference in the combinations to a US keyboard, wouldn't even think to look if it weren't for my time in Germany, replacing every instance of the letter Z with Y and vice versa on my e-mails I sent home.. Until I just changed the keymap on the computer, and had the lady next in line @ the net cafe yelling stuff in German I probably shouldn't learn.. Aparently "mist" is a weather condition that frequently occurs after Americans mess with their keymaps.. LOL)
Otherwise, I find its usefulness surpasses its drawbacks, has the other usual bells & whistles. (Spellchecker, color printer support, works with STFAX4, useful for people wanting my resume, but deal with M$ stuff) As well as a formatting options that I've seen loosely implemented in OpenOffice. My College Writing instructor last semester demanded papers be done in AMLA format, setting up AW to automagically format my papers was easy. And it allows templates, so I only had to do it once. Last I checked, it was still commercial, but well worth the money if you need some extra features.
