The WASTE (WorldScript-Aware Styled Text Engine) is an Apple Macintosh
text editing software library. The "text engine" allows Macintosh
programmers to add advanced text display and editing features to their
applications.

WASTE is a memory-based editor, which places no arbitrary limit on the
amount of text being edited (up to available system memory). It
supports the Macintosh WorldScript system, allowing it to handle
double-byte and bidirectional scripts. It included automatic support
for undo operations, drag and drop editing, text justification,
embedding images into text, and low-level hooks for rendering and
measuring text.

WASTE is a popular 3rd party library that has found its way into many
Macintosh applications, formerly under Mac OS and now under Mac OS X,
including Netscape, Internet Explorer, Microsoft Entourage, Microsoft
Outlook for Mac, REALbasic, and Tex-Edit Plus.

In version 2.0, WASTE gained the ability to support paragraph-level
formatting, additional character styles, multiple undo/redo, unicode
translation, and Mac OS X Carbon support, as well as providing new
APIs for printing and string matching.

Since WASTE makes use of deprecated QuickDraw features, it is
unsupported as of OSX 10.6.
