Jarte word processor and Wordpad replacement

Jarte is a powerful, free word processor from Carolina Road Software. Jarte has a unique, easy to use graphical interface with many features, some of which are not found in other word processors. Best of all, it's absolutely free! There are no nag messages, no flashing advertisements, no limited trial period, and no crippling of essential features.

Jarte uses the Windows built-in word processing engine at its core. It is the same word processing engine used by millions of Windows WordPad users. However, Jarte builds far more functionality around the Windows word processing engine than WordPad. This makes Jarte a great replacement for both the WordPad word processor and the NotePad text editor programs. Jarte is also a great alternative to the huge, complex, and cumbersome commercial word processors that are designed mainly for big corporations. Jarte is compact, easy to use, and designed to fit the needs of home, school, and small business. It is available from http://www.jarte.com. I also spotted it on a magazine disc recently.

If you need more features, there's Jarte Plus for a small fee.
