MicroPro was weakening with old Wordstar products and still-new WordStar 2000 ; WordPerfect was having problems with the translation and the user interface ; and MS-Word was a decent but less polished or powerful product, and was also DOS and text-based.

WordStar is a word processor application, published by MicroPro International, originally written for the CP / M operating system but later ported to DOS, that enjoyed a dominant market share during the early-to mid-1980s.

Other add-on programs included SpellStar, a spell checker program, later incorporated as a direct part of the WordStar program ; and DataStar, a program whose purpose was specifically to expedite creating of the data files used for merge printing.

Installation of early versions of WordStar, especially for CP / M, was very different from the approach of modern programs.

DOS versions of WordStar at least had standardized the screen display, but still had to be customized for different printers.

WordStar version 3. x used the MS-DOS File control block ( FCB ) interface, an early data structure for file input / output which was based closely on CP / M's file input / output functions.

) WordStar 4. 0 does not have this problem because it uses the newer MS-DOS interface for input / output.

Although no current version of WordStar is available for modern operating systems, some former WordStar users still prefer WordStar's interface, especially the cursor diamond commands described earlier in this article.

The other WordStar emulation utility created was the WordStar Command Emulator for Microsoft Word, also known as " WordStar for Word ," by Mike Petrie.

Designed to work in conjunction with CtrlPlus, the Command Emulator adds many more WordStar commands to MS Word than CtrlPlus by itself, and also changes Word 97-XP's menus to be more like those of WordStar 7. 0 for DOS, the last DOS version of WordStar.

WordStar for Word also adds WordStar's block commands, namely Ctrl + KB to mark the beginning of a block, Ctrl + KK to mark the end, and Ctrl + KV to move it.

WordStar for Word works on all versions of Word from Word 97 through 2010.

The WordStar Command Emulator is written in Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications, a macro programming language based on Visual Basic built into Microsoft Word to allow for a high level of customization.
