EGWord is a Japanese word processor program for the Apple Macintosh. It was known for handling Japanese text before MacOS was officially translated into Japanese. As of 2023, it is developed and sold by Monokakido, and is also compatible with macOS Sonoma.[1].
Due to the closing of developer Ergosoft's packaged software business on January 28, 2008[2], development and sales of the program ended with "EGWord Universal 2'' being the final version. On September 4, 2017, Monokakido announced the acquisition of the development assets of EGWord Universal[3], and in March 2018, a version compatible with macOS High Sierra was released on the Mac App Store[4]
History
[edit]Development began at the same time as Ergosoft was founded in January 1984[5], and its origins lie in "Lingo," a Japanese word processing program for the Apple Lisa that was exhibited as a prototype at the Business Show in May of the same year. Apple Computer Japan assisted in the development. "EGWord" Ver. 1.0 was announced at the Data Show in September 1984, and shipments of EGWord Ver. 2.1 to Apple Computer Japan began in September 1985[6].
