A word processor is an electronic device or computer software application, that performs the task of composition, editing, formatting, printing of documents.

Literature

Various people involved with literature -- novelists, poets, playwrights, screenwriters, and essayists -- naturally gravitated toward word processing once the technology became widely available.

Notable early adopters in the mid- or late-1970s included Jerry Pournelle, Larry Niven, Stanley Elkin, James Fallows, and Michael Crichton.
