Features of word processing
Word processors vary considerably, but all word processors support the following
basic features:
Delete text: Allows you to erase characters, words, lines, or pages as easily
as you can cross them out on paper.
Cut and paste: Allows you to remove (cut) a section of text from one place in
a document and insert (paste) it somewhere else.
Page size and margins: Allows you to define various page sizes and
margins, and the word processor will automatically readjust the text so that it
fits.
Search and replace: Allows you to direct the word processor to search for a
particular word or phrase. You can also direct the word processor to replace
one group of characters with another everywhere that the first group appears.
Word wrap: The word processor automatically moves to the next line when
you have filled one line with text, and it will readjust text if you change the
margins.
Layout: Allows you to specify different margins within a single document and
to specify various methods for indenting paragraphs.
Macros: A macro is a character or word that represents a series of
keystrokes. The keystrokes can represent text or commands. The ability to
define macros allows you to save yourself a lot of time by replacing common
combinations of keystrokes.
Merges: Allows you to merge text from one file into another file. This is
particularly useful for generating many files that have the same format but
different data. Generating mailing labels is the classic example of using
merges.
