General Software Discussion / Re: nostalgia hour: old software you loved
« on: March 05, 2007, 01:32 PM »
I got through college writing all my papers in a beautiful software called "Wordbench." This was a wonderful tool for writers, which allowed you to collect notes on notecards, build an outline to which you connected them, and then generate a rough draft. I also featured a couple of really great tools for getting unblocked. It had a freewriting tool I still miss, which set a timer for 5 minutes, nagged you if you stopped pressing keys, and hid your typing behind x's until your time was up. I have never found another software like it. :(
