> The exception is Microsoft Word, which does about 30Hz and I hate this, but it's a shitty WYSIWYG editor Was the shitty there qualifying WYSIWYG (as in WYSIWYG editors are definitionally shitty) or qualifying MS Word (as in MS Word is a shitty editor)? If the latter, do you have suggestions for good WYSIWYG editors? |

I write a lot of reports these days, and the Word editor interface drives me crazy. Like I said, it's slow, irrespective of the hardware. It can't even maintain a consistent 30 Hz on a high-end gaming rig when editing plain-text paragraphs with no special formatting. I suspect it's throttled internally, but it could just be badly written.
The editor is also very glitchy in the way it handles formatting. Lots of little annoyances just haven't been fixed and have been left there to fester for decades. It's all too easy to corrupt a document's styles to the point that the only reasonable fix is to carefully cut & paste all content into a new document, going through Notepad on the way to guarantee all hints of the original formatting are stripped.
