Nisus
Writer Express - The writer's word processor.
Built from the ground up as an all new word processor for OS X, Express
features an elegant, easy to use interface that allows you to write how
you want to write, without distraction but with style.
Write
with Style
Creating
and updating your styles is easy with our exclusive Style Sheet view.
Share your documents with everyone with our native file format, RTF,
which can be read by almost any word processor. Open Microsoft®
Word,
WordPerfect®, and text files. Punch up your documents with
multiple
columns, tables, and integrated thesaurus. Clean up your documents
using our very powerful Find and Replace function. Use QuickFix to
automatically correct common typos such as "haev", "liek" and "teh".
Multi-key keyboard shortcuts allow you to assign your custom keyboard
shortcuts. Customize the look and feel of Express to your liking.
Dictate text into Express using iListen and the Nisus Writer Express
ScriptPak.
Write
In Your Language
Nisus
Software has a long history of supporting many different languages, and
Nisus Writer Express was designed with multilingual users in mind.
Built as a Unicode word processor for OS X, Express supports Latin,
Cyrillic, Greek, Chinese, Japanese and Korean scripts. Mac OS X 10.4
(Tiger) and Express enable you to enter right to left text as in
Arabic, Hebrew, and Persian. No other word processor makes it easier to
combine multiple languages in a single document.
A Tool
For Academics
You
do enough research and studying. You shouldn't have to take an advanced
course just to use a word processor. Express allows you to start
writing quickly, with its intuitive interface and tools at your
command. Flexible note styles give you control over footnote and
endnote layout. Creating bibliographies is a snap with the help of
tools such as Bookends and EndNote. CocoAspell from Anton Leuski, and
the Hebrew Spelling Service from Mitz Pettel enhance the Apple
dictionaries in OS X.

Pathway -
Making Wikipedia a no-brainer.
The origin
My idea for Pathway originated when browsing
Wikipedia. I would always start off quite focused on a certain subject.
Unfortunately, Wikipedia articles tend to be full of distracting links,
just screaming to be clicked on…
Soon enough, I found myself
totally lost in myriads of loosely related pages. I can’t
count the
time I wasted on backtracing them, and if you have a bit of
wiki-experience, you’ve probably encountered it too.
What I needed was an application that could easily archive the path I
follow through Wikipedia pages.
The
concept
Enter
Pathway. Pathway is an app designed to solve the aforementioned
problems. Its aim is to help you discover Wikipedia without having to
worry whether you’ll have enough time to read everything you
want, or
if you’ll get lost.
It accomplishes this by presenting you with
a graphical “network” representation of your
visited article pages. A
node represents an article, a connection between two nodes means, of
course, that you’ve gone from the first article to the second
one. You
can save the network you’ve created to disk and recover it.
This way, you’re able to keep track of everything: what
you’ve looked at, how you got there and just how it all fits
together.
Pathway
has a small but useful feature set, is easy to use and tries not to get
in the way. Written in Cocoa, it offers the elegance you’d
expect from
a native Mac application.
But of course, while concept is important, it’s much better
to just give you an overview of what Pathway can do for you.
So go check out the feature page!
