wpm is a word processing system that runs on a standard UNIX system and has a simple interface for use through a computer terminal.

The original version of wpm was very small and only had 4000 lines of C code. wpm uses a set of function calls to implement a text editor.

wpm works similarly to other text editors, processing text and creating output files. It uses a custom file format or can save text to a standard file format.

wpm was originally written for educational purposes to understand word processing concepts. The author did not intend wpm to be a competitor against commercial word processors.
