What is Word processor?
[[File:LibreOffice 7.2.4.1 Writer screenshot.png|thumb|[[LibreOffice]] Writer]] A '''word processor''' is a [[computer program]] (often a [[text editor]]) or a special [[computer]] intended to edit [[text]]s with colours and different font sizes and styles, or texts which will be printed. Most such programs now have helpful [[instrument]]s (tools) to make good texts. Important instruments include [[spelling]] & [[grammar]] checker, word count (this also counts letters and lines). Moreover, with such programs one can make attractive [[document]]s, add pictures into documents, make [[webpage]]s, [[graph]]s etc. Also, they show [[synonym]]s (similar words) of words and some can read the text aloud. Many word processors, similar to many new programs, have configurable printing facilities. Some of the more versatile ones are called [[Desktop publishing]] programs. Examples include: * [[Microsoft Word]], one of the few commonly sold in shops * [[LibreOffice]] Writer * [[iWork]] Pages for [[macOS]] * TextEdit for [[macOS]] * [[WordPad]] is among the simplest and most widespread * [[OpenOffice Writer]], usually downloaded with [[OpenOffice]] [[Category:Word processors|*]] {{tech-stub}}
