I like and still use Wordstar (for DOS and/or Professional).

Not free, but very very cheap on

ebay/computing/vintage
ebay/computing/other

Unlikely you will find anything supported by the authors now, but you probably wont need it anyway.

With that said, there are forums (such as 'Wordstar Forum', where committed users help and support each other.

Good Luck - Keep us posted.
