Sprint

Description

Sprint was a powerful and programmable text-based word processor for DOS, first published by Borland in 1987. Sprint had incremental back-up, with its swap file updated every 3 seconds, enabling full recovery from crashes. Sprint included dictionary switching, support for hyphenation, and spelling and thesaurus dictionaries that have yet to be matched by the competitors.
