CU Writer, also known as "Word Chula", is a word processor capable of Thai language processing. First released to the public domain in 1989, the application runs on IBM PC compatible machines, originally with Hercules graphics card. Later versions support VGA, EGA, EDA, and other graphic technologies. CU Writer was one of the most popular word processors in Thailand until Microsoft Windows supplanted MS-DOS.[1]
