Found: The Perhect word processor.

[Edvard]

My search is over, and no, I didn't misspell it.

As word processing software becomes ever more advanced, correcting syntax and spelling errors, these familiar programmes begin to impose a standardised corporate language onto our writing.

Takahashi has produced her own fully functioning online version which undermines this dehumanising process. Reclaiming the initiative back from the software...

Tomos... you don't suppose... it's a silly joke about "minding your Ps and Qs"?

[Edvard]

Yep, that's what I thought, too.

But the more you think about it, the less it seems like a joke and the more it challenges your notions of work we do on a computer. Kind of like a software extension of the joke (whose subject is the proverbial fair-haired female with low intelligence but high enthusiasm)

"How do you know when a (proverbial character) has been on your computer? There's white-out on the screen."

How could you not love the UI? Reminds me a little of the original MacWrite.

I'm usually too literal about things - in this case not literal enough I guess
