For Mac users who enjoy the simplicity of a typewriter, but live in the digital world. WriteRoom is a full screen, distraction free, writing environment.
Unlike standard word processors that focus on features, WriteRoom is just about you and your text.
Completly freeware for personal use.
Here are some key features of "WriteRoom":
· Full-screen editing
Get free from your computer and its distractions. WriteRoom's full-screen mode hides it all away leaving just you and your text behind.
· Document based auto-save
Your documents are stored in standard text file formats and autosaved in the background to help protect your work in case the power goes out.
· Distraction free features
The menu bar, scroll bar, and word count appear when you move your mouse to the edge of the screen.
· 'Retro'-fit your cursor
Prefer block cursors to bars? Hate blinking cursors? WriteRoom has every combination you'd want.
· Standalone or Edit-In
Use WriteRoom on its own for all your text editing needs, or let WriteRoom be your ticket to full-screen editing for text in any compatible program.
Limitations:
· Nag screen
