Announcing Simply Word

11Jan09

We’ve been working on this for a couple weeks now, and we’re getting very close to releasing it. It’s a word processor, unique from other processors because it focuses on the document, not on the millions of styling toolbars.

So there are only two toolbars; the menu and the editor toolbar. Also to make things easier, we’ve added The Style Manager. Using the Style Manager, you can customize certian styles (ie header, subheader, paragraph, etc) and then apply those styles by clicking a button or using a hotkey.

Since Simply Word is new, and may have bugs, we’ve added the error console. This is a little window that records every error you have instead of displaying a pop-up window or crashing Simply Word. Cool, huh?

Simply Word does come with templates, spellcheck, emoticons, different views (web view, print view, etc), and standard formatting options (indent paragraph, hanging indent, etc).

So. Before we release a beta, we need to add a few things.
