Today at NeXTWORLD Expo, RightBrain Software introduced a new low-cost, mainstream word processor for the NEXTSTEP environment, dubbed ExactlyWrite. RightBrain is developing ExactlyWrite for the cross-platform enterprise document processing needs of both Intel and NeXT users. "We can read and write files from WriteNow, and we hope to become the standard format for sending documents around in the NEXTSTEP community," said Glenn Reid, president and founder of RightBrain Software. "At only $129 retail, with substantial discounts per seat at large installations, we offer an extremely low-cost and effective solution for word processing," Reid added. ExactlyWrite was not derived from PasteUp, RightBrain's high-end page layout application. Instead, it was written from scratch using the NEXTSTEP Text object, which provides support for drag-and-drop color and graphics, built-in spell-checking, and works seamlessly in European languages and Kanji. "ExactlyWrite won't provide some of the more sophisticated typographic and document features available in PasteUp, but hey, it's fast, it's cheap, and it's what we think people really want on a day-to-day basis," Reid said. RightBrain Software is an application software company located in Palo Alto, California. RightBrain, a privately held company, was founded in 1990 to develop publishing software for the NEXTSTEP operating system, and is currently one of the leading software developers for NEXTSTEP and the premier provider of publishing solutions with five shipping products.
