Rough Draft

Untitled Document
Sometimes writing with a full-featured word processor like MS Word feels like hitting a nail with a jack hammer. Word is just too big and bloated for everyday use, with distracting features that specific users rarely need.

Enter RoughDraft v2.11, a simple freeware word processor with writers of novels, short stories, articles, poetry, plays, and screenplays in mind. This text editor can manipulate text files and the universal Rich Text Format files (RTF). Being able to handle RTF files means that you can do simple formatting functions with your text with available fonts, colors, and indentations, just like you can in Windows Wordpad.

But unlike Wordpad, this freeware gem even includes a fast spelling checker that can have an extended functionality if you download Word Web, a standalone freeware thesaurus.
