I've used WriteNow since (without regret) leaving behind the (very) rudimentary Sandy's Word Processor on Apple IIe. Versions 2, 3 and 4 of WN have served us both very well in System 6 & 7 and OS 8 & 9, and we still use v4.0.2 in Classic Mode under Tiger, Panther and Jaguar. My wife's recent PhD Thesis was written entirely in WriteNow 4 under Panther, footnotes and all. However, for its printing I had to pass the text through .rtf, .doc and .pdf, and of all those stages, Word was the greatest pain.

WriteNow's greatest disability was its variety of owners, the last of whom gave the impression that they bought it in order to bury it.
