Curious what do you use in your work or project. Would like to know what your reasoning is
- selfishgene 6y agoTeXmacs for scientific publishing. www.texmacs.org

- marttt 6y agoHaven't used it for a while, and it is for RTF files, but I quite liked Ted: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ted_(word_processor) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ted_(word_processor) I loved the simple UI, and it seems like a great example of One Thing Well.
- asaddhamani 6y agoI assume you’re asking about a library not a word processor. Here’s a list: https://github.com/dhamaniasad/awesome-comparisons#rich-text-editors https://github.com/dhamaniasad/awesome-comparisons#rich-text...
- sloaken 6y agoMS Word - almost everyone knows it. At work we need a standard application. We cannot have each person with their own unique application as we do not have enough IT support people to handle that. We do not use the online version as internet is not reliable enough for that.
- babymandoyoda 6y agoI would have to agree the Word just wins the day. Google Docs is still my preferred option (which has an offline option as well). Then there are other players like TinyMCE and Froala: https://www.tiny.cloud/ https://www.tiny.cloud/ https://froala.com/wysiwyg-editor/download/ https://froala.com/wysiwyg-editor/download/
- LarryMade2 6y agoI will assume you are talking about on-line web text editors - I found NicEdit to be what I needed, compact and no external dependencies or licensing hassles - http://nicedit.com/ http://nicedit.com/ - wish it was still actively updated but what it has is good.
