WriteRoom: Free full-screen writing app for OS X
Merlin Mann | Jun 30 2006
O, how we distraction-prone people pine for persistent and ubiquitous full-screen mode. And it looks like the good folks at Hog Bay have come up with an elegant freeware app to help save the beleaguered writer from him or herself.
It's a primitive application, to be sure -- I suspect completely by design -- but it may be just what the doctor ordered if you need to get your head out of your butt and put some words on the page. I can see myself spending a lot of time in WriteRoom. [ via RickP_in_AZ on the board ] 40 Comments

Thanks for everyones interest. I really want to try this out but is totally broken on my out-of-the-box MacBook. Guess I’ll just have to wait for a new version I haven't seen this reported before, please report it in the Hog Bay Software user forums with a big more detail. I'm fairly certain that it is working on some MacBooks or I think I would have heard of this problem earlier. Thanks for your help. I’d like to see the ability to switch between different document via a keyboard shortcut. You can do this with "Cmd-`". That combo should work in any app to switch between the apps windows. » POSTED IN:
