∞ NT 4.0-style portal: long-form articles on diagnosis, sensory life, work, relationships, and self-advocacy, plus one-click access to the autistic-led forum and low-pressure IRC. Built for clarity: plain language, predictable layout, literal-friendly copy, and no autoplay. The forum uses the same discussion software as the main desktop with calmer colours and community-specific boards (including masking, burnout, welcome, and resources).

What this app is

Word Unperfect is the XT-Emporium hosted Unix port of the WordPerfect-style clone work. This desktop app is the public wiki-style hub for the project: users can download a host binary, browse source, clone the repo, inspect screenshots, and follow the port status.

Current editor status

The current Unix TUI opens in the full-screen editor with the File, Edit, Search, Layout, Block, Tools, Font, Graphics, and Help menu bar. Arrow-key submenu navigation and the console mouse menu path are covered by smoke tests. Block operations are exposed in the editor menus, and font attribute rendering now gives visible terminal effects for bold, underline, double underline, outline, and redline-style paired codes.

License

Word Unperfect uses the Word Unperfect XT-Emporium License. The terms are MIT-like for non-commercial personal, educational, preservation, and research use; commercial use requires permission from the XT-Emporium.com site owner.

Editable wiki model

This is configured as a desktop content app. The tab files live under config/apps/word-unperfect/tabs and are managed by the same filesystem/admin content tools as the other XT-Emporium content apps.

ⓘ Admin edits are immediate after the content file is saved; users see the updated tab on the next page load.
