Schmitz Nisus Software has released [1]Nisus Writer Pro 2.0.7 and [2]Nisus Writer Express 3.4.6, both maintenance releases with a festival of fixes. Both editions of the word processing app squash a bug that caused a crash for those running Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard after copy-and-pasting table cells with an applied list style or when closing documents with some smart content, loads language icons in the background to avoid a slowdown with 10.9 Mavericks, and fixes an issue that caused a crash when editing an equation in the MathType equation editor. On the hyphen front, the update ensures that hyphenation patterns are properly respected (some hyphenation for non-English languages was suffering in the previous releases) and that soft hyphens successfully transfer to Microsoft Word. Nisus Writer Pro also tackles an issue that triggered an error and subsequent unpredictable behavior after typing over text with a straight quote that was then automatically corrected into a smart quote. (Nisus Writer Pro: $79 new, free update, 179 MB, [3]release notes. Nisus Writer Express: $45 new, free update, 50.9 MB, [4]release notes.)
