Parallel word processing is computer support for several users to work in parallel (concurrently) on their own versions. It avoids serial processing constraints like checking documents in and out, locked text sections and/or queuing routines, and does it without a screenful of conflicting windows. TextFlow is the first parallel word processor. TextFlow is a pure and professional word processing tool that allows more enjoyment in creating texts. In a professional workflow, you can import the text from TextFlow straight into, for example, InDesign or QuarkXpress. The personal user may choose to add design in a traditional word processing product before printing.
