Psion WordPro (c)1997 PROTRONICS@compuserve.com Expand your sphere of influence, enrich your conversation skills, think & speak better, learn how to persuade others & communicate effectively. WORDPRO is an educational macro that tracks vocabulary words. Whether you are reading an e-book, writing that bestseller, or keeping up with academic doublespeak, WordPro can help you build a powerful vocabulary. It requires Tom Doblin's Macro System and the Spell/Thesaurus program. WORDPRO has two dictionaries (large and small), commonly misspelled words (sic), a list of feelings (beats "fine"), tracks your own wordlist, a full rhyming dictionary, and lots of self-help tips. Registered users may request a Word link for easy spell checking of their documents, receive all new updates, and get all of the other Protronics apps.

You can press the first letter of a word to jump to it in the lookup list. If you are unable to highlight a word or you want to type one in, select New and enter your word. If nothing on your Psion is highlighted, you may get an alert from the Macro System. Just press Enter to continue. When editing be sure to save *.TXT files as Text, not a Word format. As the immortal Calvin & Hobbes professed, "the purpose of writing is to inflate weak ideas, obscure poor reasoning, and inhibit clarity."
