TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Does anyone use a grammar/style checker as part of their normal
documentation development workflow?
I used to, some years ago, but I changed employers; went from PCs to
UNIX, and I haven't been able to find a good GSC in UNIX. Now we're
developing PC stuff, and we _need_ a GSC!
Can anyone share good/bad experiences using GSCs? Pros/cons?
Private replies work best, but copy it to the list; I'm sure others
will want to know.
