I'm setting up an old bare-bones computer for no distraction typing. It has no hard drive, no internet, and currently boots a minimal MsDOS 6.22 off one floppy.
I need a word processor that works on DOS, has word wrap, and can fit on a floppy. The edit.com that comes with 6.22 has no word wrap.
Thanks

Wordstar is good enough for George Martin. But i wouldnt be too sure about having no HDD and saving everything on floppy...

Install a Linux with no x server, use vim from the tty. Using no hard drive for writing is retarded

I've used wordstar, which seems to work fine.

Use a raspberry or tinkerboard. That shit can barely do more than run a text editor with a full Linux distro anyway
