It was first released in 1983 under the name Multi-Tool Word for Xenix systems.[3] [4] [5] Versions were later written for several other platforms including IBM PCs running DOS (1983), the Apple Macintosh (1984), SCO UNIX, OS/2 and Microsoft Windows (1989). It is a component of the Microsoft Office system; however, it is also sold as a standalone product and included in Microsoft Microsoft Word 2 Works Suite. Beginning with the 2003 version, the branding was revised to emphasize Word's identity as a component within the Office suite; Microsoft began calling it Microsoft Office Word instead of merely Microsoft Word. The latest releases are Word 2007 for Windows and Word 2008 for Mac OS X, while Word 2007 can also be run emulated on Linux[6] . There are commercially available add-ins that expand the functionality of Microsoft Word. History Word 1981 to 1989 Concepts and ideas of Word were brought from Bravo, the original GUI writing word processor developed at Xerox PARC.[7] [8] On February 1, 1983, development on what was originally named Multi-Tool Word began.

Exact time and location will be displayed from noon, Friday on the hotel lobby information terminals. The Society presently is informal—no officers or committees—and the only "official office holder" is L.E. Geisler, editor and publisher of the SEBHC JOURNAL. In the remote possibility that some SEBHC members want to establish a formal society, we advise them to send a proposed outline of same to the SEBHC JOURNAL. We will publish all those received before 5- Aug-87 in issue number 12 (August, 1987). The August JOURNAL issue will be available in the meeting room from about 13:00, Friday. Interested members can read what others have proposed in this issue, and may then discuss the proposals with other members also attending. If desired, they can draft a formal proposal for establishing a government, constitution and bylaws for the Society BEFORE meeting and acting on Lhe proposal. Note: This meeting will be quite brief, as most members are expecting to attend HUGCON-VI, and we don’t want them missing that. Subscribers visiting the meeting room may pick up their Aug-87 copy of the SEBHC JOURNAL there.

  • The Origins of Word Processing and Office Automation
    Remembering the Office of the Future: The Origins of Word Processing and Office Automation Thomas Haigh University of Wisconsin Word processing entered the American office in 1970 as an idea about reorganizing typists, but its meaning soon shifted to describe computerized text editing. The designers of word processing systems combined existing technologies to exploit the falling costs of interactive computing, creating a new business quite separate from the emerging world of the personal computer. Most people first experienced word processing using a word processor, we think of a software as an application of the personal computer. package, such as Microsoft Word. However, in During the 1980s, word processing rivaled and the early 1970s, when the idea of word process- eventually overtook spreadsheet creation as the ing first gained prominence, it referred to a new most widespread business application for per- way of organizing work: an ideal of centralizing sonal computers.1 By the end of that decade, the typing and transcription in the hands of spe- typewriter had been banished to the corner of cialists equipped with technologies such as auto- most offices, used only to fill out forms and matic typewriters.

  • Wordperfect 4.X Versions
    WordPerfect 4.x Versions Richard Wood 1. All of these are closely related versions. Each later version has enhancements over the prior one and slightly improved printer drivers. Memory requirements also increased with each version. WP 4.0 will fit entirely on one 1.44 meg floppy while both 4.1 and 4.2 will not, though all files necessary for full program functionality will. 2. Default for all versions is white characters on a black screen but they can be setup for the WP classic white on blue screen colors, or your own combination. 3. To install on a hard disk, copy all files on the disks to your directory of choice and then, from the directory where installed, run the program with the line WP/S or WP /S. This will put you into setup mode. All setup prompts are pretty much self explanatory if you are familiar with later versions 5.0 and 5.1 or other word processing software. There is no install program as included with version 5.1 and later. 4. These versions do not support a mouse or use of either extended or expanded memory. 5. These versions do not have a graphics mode print preview or any graphics import/use capabilities, they strictly deal with text. Without the graphics mode print preview the only accurate way to see printout results is to do a test printout. They do have a print preview mode but it is still a character based mode and cannot give a true representation of how things will appear on paper, particularly if using a proportionally spaced font.

  • Unit 6: Computer Software
    Computer Software Unit 6: Computer Software Introduction Collectively computer programs are known as computer software. This unit consisting of four lessons presents different aspects of computer software. Lesson 1 introduces software and its classification, system software which assists the users to develop programs for solving user problems is presented in Lesson 2. Many programs for widely used applications are available commercially. These programs are popularly known as application packages or package programs or simply packages. Advantages of package programs and brief outline of popular packages for word-processing, spreadsheet analysis, database management systems, desktop publication and graphic and applications are discussed in Lesson 3. Tasks for developing computer programs and brief introduction to some common programming languages are presented in Lesson 4. Lesson 1: Introduction and Classification 1.1 Learning Objectives On completion of this lesson you will be able to • understand the concept of software • distinguish between system software and application software • know components of system software and types of application software. 1.2 Software Software of a computer system is intangible rather than physical. It is the term used for any type of program. Software consists of statements, which instruct a computer to perform the required task. Without software a computer is simply a mass of electronic components. For a computer to input, store, make decisions, arithmetically manipulate and Software consists of output data in the correct sequence it must have access to appropriate statements, which instruct programs. Thus, the software includes all the activities associated with a computer to perform the required task. the successful development and operation of the computing system other than the hardware pieces.
