Qtext

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

QText was a famous and popular Hebrew-English word processing application for DOS in the late 80s and early 90s. It was developed by Dvir Software from kibbutz Dvir, Israel, and programmed in Turbo Pascal.

QText was one of the first word processing applications that worked in logical order (by letter-typing-order and not visual order). It was also one of the first applications to support Hebrew filenames. In its DOS incarnations, the interface was text-based and did not offer WYSIWYG.

QText faded out from the public as Windows gained popularity and Microsoft Word with Hebrew support became available, although QText offered a few Windows-compatible versions.

QText is no longer developed.
