FinalWriter will be available for AROS for a while before it's available for MorphOS or AOS4.

Finalwriter builds via the AROS build system so it builds for all branches of AROS abiv1.

  I have never used it, I am fan of Amiga Writter, but am willing to try. This should be update 97 + PDF export + later spellcheck.

We need this ported to AROS 68k. AROS 68k should have all the libraries of games and apps of AROS x86! I mean all! I am putting emphasis to ALL here!

  Seems steps should be:
 
  - Better Vamp drv support inside AROS and few bugs fixed
  - More optimized AROS for SAGA/RTG
  - Backporting AROS apps to m68k, dont just let "we can use OS 3.x" takes ya!
  - Optimizing AROS and apps for 080. In the end backporting even x64 AROS to 080 64-bit AROS and recompiling selected AROS native apps :) Again some GCC and tools fully supporting 080 would be needed.
 
  Will we ever see 3 and 4? Short term 1 and 2 are priority.

Export PDF is a very important feature.

The most used feature when I use LibreOffice.

PDF export Is Nice, only pgs has it properly done in Amiga land
To make it truly usable, one needs good file import support.

But great start
