Tools For Writers

Posted by: Anonymous Coward on August 28, 2006 11:33 PM
Writers don't need minimalist tools when there are so many good tools out there that were seemingly designed with them in mind. For composition, use OpenOffice. For layout, use Scribus. Both of these are portable and friendly tools. Just as there is no reason to use a slide rule to plan out the installation of a sprinkler system, there is no reason to descend to vi to write your next bestseller.
