Or G R R Martin. He uses Wordstar.
I used it for years. It's pointless now.
Wordstar 2000 and later for DOS are not Wordstar. Bought in and incompatible. I wrote a Pearl script to convert pre-2000 Wordstar
Quote:
MicroPro focused on creating a clone of it[*] which they marketed, in 1984, as WordStar 2000. WordStar 2000 supported features such as disk directories, but lacked compatibility with the file formats of existing WordStar versions and also made numerous unpopular changes to the interface.

[* IBM ported Displaywrite to PC and Wordstar was a bought in clone]
For Plain text, Notepad++ or KATE is better (Jota on Android) and for actual Wordprocessing ANY Word for Windows from 2.0a onwards (maybe up to 2007
) or LO Writer.
There are plenty of free text editors that will run in Dosbox (which runs on nearly anything Android to Linux to Symbian to Windows)
