Oh...well...should IO stick with MS-Dos Editor, Go wiht Boxer or use MS Word...
It depends on what stage I am at and what machine I am at.
First drafts are done with PEN and PAPER! Then if i am at home
I have to use my DOS machine so it goes into WordPerfect for Windows.
When I am ready to post something it then get saved to a text file,
which I edit with the text editor in the Borland C++ IDE to do final
touch ups as single and double quotes, and line breacks tend to
get mangled.
If I am at work, I tend to use something called text editor and
vi on my SPARC station. While I have Word for windows and Wordperfect
availabe to me at work I am finding I am using vi more and more. Word
is not worth the hasles to get it to do what I want it to do, not what
it thinks I want to do. (I have to support Word on about 50 machines,
and it is one of the worst behaived programs I have ever had to deal
with!)
So what is my suggestion to you. Paper, pen and vi. (and I am
not joking. I got to get a SUN box (UNIX) at home!
