Amazing Dictionary And Thesaurus For Windows

Posted: 19 Oct 2013 12:48 AM PDT

WordWeb is a really neat free program for Windows. It adds a pop-up dictionary and thesaurus to just about any application, and it's both quick and easy to use. It's brilliant if you're writing any form of document, and especially good to help the kids with their homework too.

This Free Utility Transforms WordPad Into A Much Better Program

Posted: 18 Oct 2013 01:58 AM PDT

Ever since version 1.0, Windows has always been supplied with a basic text editor. At first it was Notepad, which is still much-loved today for simple tasks. More recent versions of Windows have included WordPad, which can be seen either as a cut-down version of Word or a souped-up version of Notepad. It's a word processor, though not a terribly full-featured one. It does, though, have a fairly decent editing engine built in, and the ability for other apps to harness that engine if they wish to do so.

Which is where Jarte (pronounced Jartay) comes in. It uses the WordPad engine to turn WordPad into something that's now a pretty acceptable WP product. You can save files in either RTF or DOC format, there's a spelling check in about 10 different languages, and much more besides. And because the underlying editor is still WordPad, you know it'll produce files that are properly compatible with MS Office.

Jarte is a 3 MB download from www.jarte.com and will run on everything from XP upwards. It's malware-free according to VirusTotal, and trustworthy according to Web Of Trust. There's even a portable version available, if you wish, which can run from a USB drive or even your Dropbox.
