Those were the glory days of word processors, I used to have something similar on the Amiga. I'd still rather write on something like this than Word, Pages or Google Docs.

At least Word has an outline mode, GDocs is the worst. A text editor with markdown support is better than GDocs.
Word's outline mode is a sham. You can't export the text in the outline format. Stupid AF.
Word used to be a great product. Today it's a shambolic testament to incompetent design and dereliction.
Google Docs is in fact a text editor with Markdown support, see https://support.google.com/docs/answer/12014036
I don’t remember seeing the outline function on the online version of Word.
It’s maddening that the Windows, macOS, iOS and web versions of Word all have completely random subsets of functionality.

Same, don't remember the name though. But it was WYSIWIG and I'd use it to create character sheets for our D&D games. And then I'd print them on a dot-matrix printer on continuous paper. Oh the memories!
PageSetter 2/3 (can't remember which version got me my first job, from a cover disk), Page Stream 3, Professional Page :)
