word processor
<text, tool> A program used to create and print (chiefly textual)
documents that might otherwise be prepared on a typewriter. The key advantage of
word processor is its ability to make changes easily, such as correcting
spelling, changing margins, or adding, deleting, and relocating entire blocks of
text. Once created, the document can be printed quickly and accurately and saved
for later modifications.
Today most popular word processors, such as Microsoft Word, offer a much greater
range of facilities than the first such programs.
Compare text editor.
