  6. New post: WordStar: the pre-Microsoft Word days

    WordStar was the hand I was dealt when I started working with computers back in the 1980s. It was also probably the cheapest word processor on the market, knowing my boss

  10. The first issue of #Compute had reviews of three "#WordProcessors."

    One was from Commodore themselves, written in machine code ("ML" as it was often called then), and worked largely like you'd expect an early word processor to work: character-based, not WYSIWYG, but generally of use in manipulating text.

    The other two were from small companies, written in BASIC, and were "line oriented" word processors. They stored documents as sequences of independent lines, which you would call up to look at, and would edit them individually.

    Can you imagine working with a system like that now? What if that was how we had to enter text into the Mastodon posting form?

    We do realise that we, as a #FOSS community, are ideologically competing with other #WordProcessors that are proprietary and want to "do everything the same way they do".

    But in today's age of #privacy and #cyberSecurity consciousness, maybe we can lead by giving people options on how they paste. For example:

    "The content you are pasting contains JavaScript, that can be run for dynamic content.
    [ - ] Don't paste, don't run.
    [ - ] Paste but don't run.
    [ - ] Paste and run.
