One of the most successful British word processor programs, developed by Peterborough-based Arnor Ltd between 1985 and 1995.

Protext has sold over 30,000 copies.

Original written for the Amstrad CPC464, Protext was subsequently released for the Amstrad PCW8256, the PC, the Atari ST, Commodore Amiga and the Acorn Archimedes.

When Arnor closed in 1995 it seemed that Protext had become another British casualty of the fast-evolving world of computers.

WACCO continue with the sells.

But a group of Protext users with professional experience from other areas of business, were not prepared to let it go.
