The generic names of the five software tools for writers are: (1) outline processors, (2) word processors, (3) electronic spelling checkers, (4) electronic writing analysts (e.g., Grammatik II), and (5) electronic thesauruses.
Bauer's seven-step writing routine consists of: (1) Scheme (i.e., plan), (2) Outline, (3) Draft, (4) Proof, (5) Revise, (6) Polish, and (7) Print.
In 1986, I used my own selection of five DOS-based software tools with the functionality of the five tools promoted by Bauer: (1) PC-Outline, (2) PC-Write, (3) Word Proof (spell checker), (4) Grammatik II, and (5) Word Proof (thesaurus).
In 2008, I still occasionally use PC-Outline and PC-Write when writing drafts and programming. Otherwise, I use whatever is handy for word processing with a strong preference for freeware, such as, RoughDraft 3.0 and Jarte 4.1. Spell checking and thesauruses are built-in to today's lineup of word processors. Style checkers are now built-in to most commercial word processors, eliminating the need for products like Grammatik II and its successors.
