EasyWriter (and family)

Word processor for the Apple, written by John Draper (aka "Captain Crunch"). By March 1980 the EasyWriter family expanded to: EasyMover (electronic mailer), EasyMailer (continuous letter writer), and Professional EasyWriter (~$100). Used by Bernard Urban (in combination with his Muse printer) starting January 1980 to produce the Pi newsletter itself — though Urban initially complained about proportional-spacing limitations.
