Atlantis Word Processor [gotd]
« on: December 04, 2015, 01:41 PM »
Since wordpad switched to the ribbon interface I have been using Atlantis Nova, which is the free version of Atlantis Word Processor.  AWP is on GOTD today.  It installed and activated fine.

I don't use word processors much.  Mostly I use text editors for programming.  So I cannot critique this word processor's features, performance etc..  But what I can say is it has the traditional menu at the top.  If you just need something to dash off a quick rtf file then you may prefer Atlantis Nova.  It snaps open much faster.  :)

I agree that this WAS worth installing over the previous GOTD version.  Its portability is icing on the cake.  Loads a bit slow but still preferable overall to freeware AbiWord.

I am glad for the positive response.  I am likely to be only an occasional user.  But I signed up for the forum just in case.  :)

I like Abiword because of its speed and interface.  but development seems to have stalled.
