From the webpage: "It was built for creative writers who want a simple writing environment that doesn't get in their way while working on that crucial first draft. If you're a business or academic user, it's not for you. It's suitable for first-draft work only, not for final manuscript preparation."

Thanks Wojciech. It turns out this is a free offering from Bad Wolf Software (makers of SmartEdit and PageFour), a simplified version of a new editor they are working on.
I'm greatful to BWS for releasing this for free. But as this runs on Microsoft .Net 4, I found the start-up time rather slow on my 2GB-RAM Win XP netbook. I also wish they had added a full-screen distraction-free writing mode.
But as they make it clear, they won't be responding to requests for improvements. This is more of a freebie to promote their other software.

Basically it's identical to SmartEdit, but without all the analysis goodies. Nice piece of software, but as Dr. Andus has noted, slow to launch (like SmartEdit, which clearly has precisely the same underpinnings). I enormously respect SmartEdit, which is a superb tool for professional writers.
