- What reviewers have said about BREEZE:
-
-
-
- "Breeze is bristling with features and must represent the
- ultimate in shareware."
- PC Home Nov, 1993
-
- "I have never seen a budget-priced word processor with quite as
- many features as this. Altogether an excellent program with
- more features than you'll ever need and at a reasonable price."
-
- Practical PC (Nov, 1993)
-
- ". . . the most extensive set of text editing tools available in
- one package. Breeze offers you everything you're likely to need
- for editing and manipulating text."
-
- Jane Brown, PC Home Issue 4
-
- "Breeze is one of the most refreshing new programs I've come
- across in a while. Breeze is easy to use, lightning fast, and
- has some great features - word processor or text editor. In
- fact, anyone who uses a laptop, a PC without a hard drive or,
- like me, often needs to use a program that's quick and easy to
- write with - without the frills - should take a look at Breeze."
-
- Geoff Long, Australian PC World
-
- "A mighty-mite text processor that combines ease-of-use with
- some outstanding features."
-
- Stephen West, Australian PC User
-
- "If you want a word processor which you can operate straight
- 'out of the box', choose Breeze. If you want a program which
- has all the tools you need for writing, such as a spell-checker
- and style analyser, choose Breeze. If you like a colourful,
- good-looking screen with on-line help, choose Breeze."
-
- Laurie Malone, Sixteen Bits
-
- "I guess the word that comes to mind when I see Breeze is
- 'clean'. Combine the clean look with a couple of unique
- features, and Breeze is easy to use and very handy for special
- jobs."
-
- Chuck Botsford, Shareware Magazine
-
- PC Home, in their November 1993 edition, found Breeze to be the
- best shareware word processor. Breeze was compared to the top 7
- Shareware Word Processors including Word Fugue, PC Write, and
- Galaxy Pro Lite.
-
-
- Winner: "Best Editing Software", PC Update Readers' Choice
- Awards, 1995.
