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. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Information: Name: BREEZE Text processor Version: 5.4 Category: Word Processors/Writing Aids Registration: A$40 (Australian dollars in Australia) œ20 (Pounds sterling in the U.K) US$35 (elsewhere).
