Summary
The Write activity will serve as the basic text editing application on the laptops. Its simple interface will provide an easy starting point for children, presenting tools that make writing a story, poem or essay simple and straightforward. It will also support basic tools for inserting images, creating tables, and performing basic layout operations as children begin to require some of these features often associated with word processors.
Goals
Collaboration
Write will feature collaborative real time editing. Integrated with the mesh network and presence services, this feature will allow kids to work together easily and seamlessly in a text editing environment. This feature is made possible via the Abi Collab research performed by the Abiword development team.
