file extension EDX - Editor dictionary file
File extension EDX description:
File extension used by Editor from Serenity Software.For over twenty-five years, students and professional writers have been using Editor to polish their prose. Teachers in high schools, colleges, and universities have featured the software in classrooms, writing labs, and homework assignments, both as an educational tool and as a way to reduce the burden of marking up papers by having students take on more of the work. Developed for student use and classroom teaching beginning in 1982, Editor was the only academic software selected by the Modern Language Association of America (MLA) as part of their software- publication initiative, Software for Students and Scholars. MLA published Editor in 1990 in an MS-DOS edition, with an upgrade in 1995 and a revised version for the Macintosh in 2001.
The current Windows® edition of Editor, published and distributed by Serenity Software, is a comprehensive revision and upgrade of those earlier editions, with enhanced style-analysis and text-checking capabilities helpful to advanced writers.
