Word Grinder.

Most people go with something like Abiword. Perhaps, something larger for their document editing.

I do my writing in a terminal. 8)

This is Word Grinder.

http://wordgrinder.sourceforge.net/

It's out of date. Which is sad. But for an older system, there's nothing better.
Especially exiting into a tty for a truly full screen writing experience.

It's written in Lua.

I want to compile a .pet of this. But I don't know if someone's already beat me to it.

Anyone interested in this fine cli program?

Hi, gnuxo.

Indeed an interesting program, even if old.

I believe ttuuxx (of Puppy 2.17 fame) did come up with such a pet a while back.

May I suggest you try a search with "ttuuxx" and "wordgrinder" as the keywords?

Best regards.
