I used Right Writer for a while. I hated everything about it



It was capable of checking your grammar, but I wrote
Engineering reports with various word processors. 

Right Write thought that all the Engineering terms were "jargon"
and always reported that my writing style (due to that) was
in the toilet. Although, I am herein scribbling things as I
think them (somewhat disjointed thoughts), I have extensive
eductaion in writing, and felt my writing style was fair to
good. 

So I have a bad taste in my mouth about right writer and recommend
against it.
