WORD PROCESSOR

A word processor is a computer application used for the word processsing.  Simply defined, word processsing implies the use of a computer used sytem, editing, storing and printing of textual material. These can be in form of letters, memos, reports, manuals, drafts and almost all documents required. 
           Word processor may also refer to a type of stand-alone office machine, popular in the 1970s and 1980s, combining the keyboard text-entry and printing functions of an electric typewriter with a dedicated processor (like a computer processor) for the editing of text. Although features and design varied between manufacturers and models, with new features added as technology advanced, word processors for several years usually featured a monochrome display and the ability to save documents on memory cards .

                                                                                                                         

 Reducing the cost of typesetting so that it could be incorporated in an office or small business budget has been a long-standing goal of office equipment. Traditional lead type required expensive equipment and highly trained operators; it was slow to produce and correct. Adaptations of the electric typewriter provided proportionally spaced output of typeset quality,

But justification—making an even right margin—meant that each line needed to be typed twice. The first keyboarding mechanically counted the length of the line, and the repetition inserted fractional spaces between words so as to align the right margin.

            Microsoft Word is the most widely used word processing software. Microsoft estimates that over 500,000,000 people use the Microsoft Office suite, which includes Word. Many other word processing applications exist, including WordPerfect and open source applications OpenOffice.org Writer, etc.
