TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Surely. I used RightWriter, originally from Sarasota FL. Easily
configured. UNLIKE the Grammatik (sorry for the spelling) grammar
check utility, RightWriter proofed the document, THEN presented a
list of suggestions. I loathe the -interactive- Grammatik; it halts
when it finds something it suspects is incorrect, so I must babysit
the [expletive deleted] thing. Naturally, MS in its wisdom, included
either Grammatik or a look-alike into Word V6 and V7. If anyone
has information about RightWriter for Windows (preferably 95), please
let me know. I'll wager RightWriter knows the difference between
*its* and *it's* and between *in* and *into.* (And where to put the
peiod -- inside or qutside the quote.)
