I see ZenWriter is on sale at Du Jour again. I have never actually trialled this one. Are there any fans or users of it on this forum? There is not a whole lot of info about it on its website. I wonder how it differs from/compares to let’s say WriteMonkey.

I haven’t tried it, but some internet searching suggests that there has been very little activity during the last couple years (not necessarily a bad thing, but it would give me pause). However, the developer just announced a few weeks ago that a Mac version is on the way:

You don’t need to *buy* an editor for that. I wrote a blog post called “Distraction-free for Free” about a month ago:

Everything’s there for OSX and Linux, anyway. (When did Microsoft remove EDLIN?)
