I was in a terrible hurry, I phoned them.
Didn't I have a copy? I had, so I made a copy of that and went back, and something just as erratic happened.Īt the time, I was reading an American magazine about the Mac, and I had just seen an ad for Nisus, it promised interesting things like an automatic copy-as-you-write in another location, multiple selections etc. I cannot remember exactly how it happened, but I remember calling support, they answering it should not have happened but could not help mi. I use Nisus since the day Word 5.1 “swallowed” the first three chapters of a novel I had just started before I had printed them. As for Google Docs, I haven’t even looked at it … why should I? I have the WP that really suits me on a MacBook Air that goes everywhere with me. 5.1a on OS-8/9, and there is no way I’d shell out that sort of money for it now and OpenOffice/LibreOffice I find ugly, un-Mac-like and unintuitive. On the other hand, I haven’t liked MS Word since v. It suits me, does absolutely everything I need - the only issue for me is floating-box anchors moving around, but that is less important to me now - I like the interface and appearance and am completely at home with it. So I used that, until one day Charles Jolley sold it to Nisus and joined Nisus himself - much to the disgust of other Opito users, but not me - and I have used NW(P) ever since. rtf as its native format, so easily compatible with my WinWord using colleagues. Not quite as powerful us Mellel, but less quirky and with a good interface and developeing fairly rapidly, and most importantly, being based on Apple’s text engine, opened Chinese. Then after a few months, I came across a fledgling wordprocessor called “Opito Composer”, developed by one Charles Jolley. If I were involved with RTL languages, I’d definitely be using Mellel. rtf then open that in Mellel, a tedious work-around. The only way round this was to open them in TextEdit, save them as.
docs in Chinese, turning them into gibberish. Mellel is a fine wordprocessor, and I used it to begin with, and might still be using it, if it weren’t for one major deal-breaker, which still exists … it cannot open. I use NWP because, when I moved on to OSX when it first came out, I needed a wordprocessor that could work with Chinese, importing. The employees (who at this point numbered about 25) celebrated with champagne and took pictures of themselves with the UPS guy loading the first boxes into the truck" "Nisus Writer 4.0 was finally released, with a great sigh of relief, in October 1994. I read an article (piece of a book) about Nisus history and I was wondering if Jerzy Lewak is still alive and working with Nisus and can some one show us this picture: There is another app called Mellel but I have not looked too much into it.

Personally I use Nisus because its the only word processor(maybe app) on the Mac that completely supports RTL languages.

There are even free alternatives like OpenOffice and most people will only need simple editing tools that are free to use with Google Docs or OneDrive that offers free 7GB free too (and other office tools). I would like to hear why do you choose to pay for Nisus writer even though there are many alternatives with bigger communities, support, tutorials, and common users you can share your files with them without formatting getting messed up. I know it because of some guy who referenced it because he used it in the OS 9 (maybe 7) days. Lets be honest, Nisus is an obscure word processor for most people.
