Andra is a modern text editor and formatter designed for the personal computer Lilith. Lilith was developed at the ETH by Prof. N. Wirth. The interactive part of Andra makes extensive use of Lilith's characteristic features, namely its high‐resolution raster scan display and the mouse. The printer component of Andra allows the creation of high‐quality hardcopies on a laser printer. The Andra program is written in the language Modula‐2.
