WordStar is a discontinued word processor application for microcomputers. It was published by MicroPro International and originally written for the CP/M-80 operating system (OS), with later editions added for MS-DOS and other 16-bit PC OSes. Rob Barnaby was the sole author of the early versions of the program.
In 1982, WordStar was ported to DOS. "So while WordMaster, SuperSort, and WordStar were developed on IMSAIs (I used mine til I got an IBM PC), few customers used them."-- Rob Barnaby in email to Mike Petrie 2 May 2000. In 1987 Rubinstein became involved with a spreadsheet he called Surpass.
