Version 3.4: ability to insert images in a document by reference support for hyperlinks improved table formatting and organization finer control over hyphenation control over padding around images improved pagination with end notes and (one of my favorites) the ability to stop numbering in lists (for example, to insert a comment paragraph) and then resume it.(It allows you to jump backwards and forwards to prior editing locations.) Version 3.3: a new Document Manager and style library and a selection history feature that is fun to use and sometimes useful.Version 3.0: text wrap around images glossaries widow and orphan control, “keep with next” and “keep together” paragraph options improved note formatting.Version 2.7: multi-key keyboard shortcuts (great for keyboard control freaks) and leader tabs.Version 2.5: support for right-to-left text input list styles (bullets and numbering) and improved resizing of images.Seven years is a long time in the computer biz, and while Nisus Writer Express doesn’t look very different on the surface (and it still has the features I mentioned), it has improved in lots of ways. That description is still accurate with the latest version of Nisus Writer Express, 3.4.1 ( I described it then as “sleek, flexible and a bit geeky.” It also had the trademark Nisus Writer features, which include its commendable use of Rich Text Format (RTF) as its native file format the ability to customize the user interface extensively selection of non-contiguous blocks of text multiple editable clipboards an insanely powerful find and replace feature and an equally insane willingness to be pushed around via macros and other programming methods. It had powerful formatting via styles (character and paragraph), tables, images, columns, footnotes and endnotes, and other basic word processing features.
When I last reviewed Nisus Writer Express (version 2.1)īack in 2005, it was a pretty decent writing tool.
