This page is powered by a knowledgeable community that helps you make an informed decision. FocusWriter is a distraction-free word processor program that hides all the interfaces. FocusWriter not only cleans the screen so that we can write without distractions, but it also has a calendar and stopwatch system that will allow us to measure and calculate the time that each person spends in front of the screen by typing. 'Offline access' is the primary reason people pick Joplin over the competition. Focuswriter calculates the time and days we write to create the habit of writing. Focus Writer, a simple open-source full-screen word processor, reached the 1.6.6 release days ago with some bug-fixes and translation updates.įocusWriter supports TXT, basic RTF, and basic ODT files. Joplin, FocusWriter, and novelWriter are probably your best bets out of the 13 options considered.

Been trying to do research on some writing programs so I could write on my new chromebook (early christmas gift from my aunt), but it's difficult and the things I've been recommended so far aren't available on chromebook (namely Microsoft Word and FocusWriter).

I'm just trying to find something with the basics, like making a Table of Contents, page numbers, and a lack of a word limit. I currently use Google docs but it has a very limiting character limit, so I'm trying to find anything else.

What Happened?

Why do I seem to have lost interest in everything computer related? I used to love playing with old machines but to be honest lately my heart has really fallen out of the industry.

I just don’t seem to enjoy playing with this stuff. I used to like messing around with emulators and playing with things like DOS but now I feel like I have played around and done most things I can do in that field.

I had an interest in Linux but to be honest it seems to have faded. Maybe because I have hit the limits of my hardware so I don’t have any areas to explore.

People have always said I have had an esoteric choice of machines I like. Although I admit my first machine was a 48k ZX Spectrum back in 1983 as common as you get. I have always been interested in the more obscure or failing machines.

I have always had an interest in machines such as the MSX machines, PC Engines & Sharp X68000. This is because they were not on every computer shop in town. They didn’t make huge impact at all in the UK where I am based.

Obviously a lot of the software is in Japanese and I have no ability to read Hiragana, which is what it normally is. So even if I get emulation running I have no idea what its about or what I am supposed to be doing if it’s beyond basic menus.

I also like machines like the NeXT, which was also not hugely available so when to get to see them I am really interested.

I then used OpenStep 3.3. via the emulator called Previous and really discovered how little software is actually available for this system. However using it really did show how much NeXTStep is still in Mac OS X even to this day.

Why do I prefer typing in old word processors like this one and Word Perfect 5.1 for DOS or LocoScript PC. Give me a copy of LibreOffice or Modern Word and I sit and stare at a blank page.

I also seem to type more if you give me a minimalist word processor like Writeroom or Focuswriter. So maybe it’s a psychological thing.

It seems the more obscure the item is the more my interest is.

I also have a vast interest in running things in emulators. I have no ability to write said emulators but have always had a fascination in seeing if I can do it on said machines.

It started when I got my first 486 SX25 . The first emulator I ran was JPP in DOS to emulate a ZX Spectrum. Then I found things like Z80 and Magic Engine I bought keys for both. The Magic Engine key I still have and still works but the Z80 one went AWOL a long time ago.

It was cool to subvert the machine make it doe something it was not designed by trade to do, It was exciting and when you got something working it was cool.

I then found things like Nesticle, (NES) Genecyst (Genesis/Mega Drive) and Callus (CPS1) from Blood software and I entered a rabbit hole of emulation. BSNES and ZSNES (both SNES ) and things like M72 (Irem M72 boards), RAINE (CPS1/2) and MAME.

Obviously I remember MAME when it started and would only run 5 games but it sharp managed to keep adding more and more games, making it very interesting at the time.

MAME of course is still going today and can do lots of things as it now includes many of the older projects being amalgamated into it. It now includes MESS, (Multi Emulation Super System), MFME (Multi Fruit Machine Emulator) and PINMAME (Pinball DMD roms).

All of these at one point had separate instances but now MAME coves them all including the ever growing arcade roms and architectures it supports.

As well as multi machine emulators like MAME. Several arcades had their own dedicated programs. I remember things like The New Zealand Story and the 4 player Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles had their own dedicated emulators written for them.

Obviously over the years many emulators have come and gone and the images of the roms have been upgraded or updated. I think I saw recently that if you wan t to emulate some of the newer systems on MAME such as Sega M1 or Naomi upwards you need to use CHD (Compressed Hunks of Data) files and if you want a complete collection of such then you need over 10TB worth of hard drive space.

Which is ludicrous considering that half of them don’t work very well due to requiring a beefy CPU to run said games and lots of GPU memory to create the virtual graphics cards.

So machines without a eight-core processor or higher and anything less than a Nvidia 3000 series graphics card need not apply.

Over the years the emulators have continued covering all major platforms and even to this day as I said MAME continuers its quest. However even more recent platforms are not safe from the emulators.

They have emulation for Xbox 360, Playstation 2 & 3 and even a Switch emulator. In fact was just announced about RPCS4, Orbital, PS4EMX, PS4Emus they have got Playstation 4 emulation now in the functional stages.

Scary stuff. I love emulation even though I could not program one to save my life. I just like seeing a machine running something it was not intended to do.

This is also why I used to like playing with Hackintosh stuff because it was once again subverting what the machine is. The PC was not supposed to run Mac OS X but the fact that someone managed to get such things running was absolutely fascinating.

People have accused me of being quite brutal on machines because I tend to try and get these emulators to work or run software never designed for it. The fact that things such as emulators and the various VMs to run obscure stuff I am not the only one who wants to do this.

Thankfully they do exist because if you were waiting on me to write such it would never happen as I just don’t have that sort of skill or knowledge.

Of course the new Apple Silicon has pretty much made the Hackintosh redundant and also I really didn’t quite understand how to get OpenCore working it was far too complex for my limited brain.

Normal stuff like PC gaming or consoles don’t appeal to me very much until they become a challenge to run them. As I said I like the obscure I like the having to resort to unorthodox methods.

I would be the type if I did play PC games and got good I would have to beat Call of Duty 904 with a Steering wheel just be obnoxious. I’m not going to do that so don’t look to find it.

Obviously as I said new emulators require machines far beyond my reach at the moment but one day who knows I may get back up in the high end PC market again.

Until then I type this nonsense on a iBook G4 using Microsoft Word 2008 then probably upload it using my Dell i7 M6800 laptop to Tumblr.

However to answer the question what happened. I think I have played with most of the obscure things and now I have nothing to do or see.

Going back to the run of the mill is boring and I honestly find most modern games and consoles lifeless. They may be photo realistic and have 4k graphics and more but have about as much excitement to me as a pebble.

However if I get a high end PC I will definitely try and emulate the consoles I don’t care about currently as it something the PC isn’t supposed to be doing. As I said it’s a psychological thing or basically I’m just weird.

[courfee]

i have found a new kind of over the top but very effective way of productively writing

obviously i still use my trusty writing program (focuswriter i love you and i owe you my life) which is the first motivator, because its a undistracting environment and the only blank pages that don’t look intimidating to me

the second motivator is of course the fact that the program has a daily goal i gotta reach and a streak i can build up. i love that

the third is the very wonderful timer i can set and now always put on 8 minutes. after the 8 minutes it tells me how many words ive writte, which i love to look at and be proud of myself about

the problem with that was just that after the 8 minutes were over id get distracted for an hour or so and not write at all. so on top of that i now also set the stop watch on my phone and for every new 8 minute timer i start, i start another round on the stop watch. then after usually about an hour i can check how often i restarted the timer, how long “8 minutes” usually actually took me and how many words i wrote on average per 8 minute session. 

too many steps? possibly for the average person, but the exact right amount for me. ive never written as much and consistantly as i have in the past week

Why on earth Notepad++ (which is the software I use to do all my coding in) holds onto the bloody text formatting that’s invisible and thus doesn’t give any indication that anything’s wrong is beyond me, but: if you ever notice that the links for your muses’ interactions aren’t being found when opening them from the Interactions and/or Ships pages, PLEASE let me know ASAP!

I’m usually pretty good about doublechecking them all whenever I publish an update, but if I’m adding several new entries to a page, it’s more likely that I’ll run out of energy to do the full check and then I’ll forget to go back and finish fixing it later.

At least the search box on the theme doubles as a backup, and the tags themselves (usually) work - unless something went weird with those too, which has been known to happen. I’m trying to get into the habit of pasting all of the tag clusters into FocusWriter as plain text before putting it into both the code and breevy, but with my memory the way it is, who knows from one day to the next if I’ll actually manage to remember when I’m in the middle of updates.

Anyway, the code is now correct... on this blog, anyway... I only checked by looking at the URLs, and not checking every URL tag to make sure those are functioning correctly. 

So if you notice anything’s off, please tell me so I can fix it! Otherwise, if I go through the page to check to see if I missed a thread, and it shows nothing’s found, I’m likely to assume that anything we had was on the old blog and hasn’t been carried over yet, so it may be on my turn and I don’t even have it drafted.

Text Editor Or Notepad For Mac

Text Editor For Mac

Text Editor In Mac

Notepad For Mac

A good word processor is one of the few pieces of software you simply can't live without. You might be able to manage without a spreadsheet tool or something for making slideshows, but text documents are unavoidable. Thankfully, you don't need to splash out on a full Microsoft Office subscription; there are some superb word processors available to download and use completely free.

Here we’re looking at the very best word processors that can be used offline (particularly useful for distraction-free writing), but there are also several excellent browser-based tools to consider if you'd rather do your writing online.

Google Docs is the most obvious choice, and has the advantage of saving your work automatically so you don’t have to worry if your connection fails. It’s also a good choice for collaborative working, and means you don’t have to upload work to a separate cloud storage service. However, it has a limited selection of templates, there’s no way to import content from other Google applications, and any online tool is going to be surrounded by distractions like social media.

Best Text Editors for macOS. Note: In this article, we are focusing on the best text editors for coding but if you are looking for a text editor for your writing purposes, you can check out our article on the best writing apps for Mac. Sublime Text 3. Sublime Text is probably one of the most famous text editors available for Mac and for all the right reasons. TextEdit is the default text editor in macOS, and it’s just as barebones as the default text editor in Windows, Notepad. Naturally, many Mac users sooner or later look for an alternative, and they often stumble upon Notepad++.

If you'd prefer an offline word processor, read on – the perfect one is only a click away.

1. WPS Office Free

A word processor with cloud storage and support for all text files

Interface almost identical to Word

Free cloud storage

If you’ve used a modern version of Microsoft Word, there’ll be no learning curve when you switch to Writer – the word processing component of WPS Office Free.

This free word processor looks and behaves almost exactly like its premium counterpart, and even has its own equivalent of OneDrive, offering 1GB free cloud storage.

Its selection of pre-installed templates gives you everything you need for common document types, and you can easily create your own for bespoke tasks. It’s compatible with every text file format you can think of, including current and legacy versions of Microsoft Word dating back to Office 97.

WPS Office Writer is supported by discrete ads, which can be removed by upgrading to the premium version, but they’re barely noticeable and no features are locked behind a paywall. Overall, WPS Writer is very impressive, and in our opinion it’s the best free word processor available to download today.

WPS recently launched a free PDF to Word converter as well, which is a great companion to its word processor. Sublime text download.

2. LibreOffice or Apache OpenOffice

All-singing, all-dancing word processors for any text-based work

Document template galleries

LibreOffice is a fork of Apache OpenOffice, and although there are some differences between the two suites (LibreOffice receives more frequent updates, for example, and has a more lively userbase), their word processing components are so similar, we’re listing them together.

Both versions of Writer are feature-packed analogs of Microsoft Word, packed with all the features you could possibly need for any text-based work.

The two versions of Writer include wizards and templates for common document types, such as invoices and letters, and it’s easy to create your own templates for future use as well. The word processors also work together with the other office software in their respective suites – so you can use Base to create a bibliography, for example.

Both word processors support all the most popular file formats, and can export documents to PDF without the need for additional software. If you’re looking for a word processor that can stand in for Microsoft Word, either of these two will be a perfect candidate.

3. FocusWriter

How to rotate text in word for mac. The ideal word processor for first drafts, with no fussy formatting

Blocks out distractions

Auto-save function

If you simply want to hammer out some words without worrying about formatting, you could just use Windows’ built-in Notepad app, but FocusWriter is full of clever tools that will help you maximize productivity without ever getting in the way.

FocusWriter also features alerts that are triggered at certain times, or when you’ve reached a predefined word count, so you don’t need to worry about watching a counter (as you would in Microsoft Word). This also makes FocusWriter a good tool to use in tandem with the Pomodoro Technique, which involves working hard for a period of time that’s long enough for you to work productively, but not so long that you become fatigued.

Distraction-free interface

Text Editor In Mac

Handy keyboard shortcuts

Unlike FocusWriter, which is compatible with all the most common text formats (including Microsoft’s DOC and DOCX), WriteMonkey only works with TXT files, so you’ll have to convert any works in progress before opening them.

That said, if you’re happy to commit those shortcuts to memory, you’ll find WriteMonkey faster to use than toolbar-based alternatives.

WriteMonkey is a portable app, so there’s no need to install it – just extract all the downloaded files to a removable drive or cloud storage service and fire it up by running the file WriteMonkey.exe.

Essay Auto Writer

Essay Auto Writer His detection method, described in a study1 revealed in Scientometrics in 2012, includes searching for characteristic vocabulary generated by SCIgen. Shortly before that paper was published, Labbé informed the IEEE of 85 fake papers he had discovered. Freemind is likely one of the finest apps for research paper writing or faculty writing since it not only acts as writing and enhancing platform but in addition allows you to put down your thoughts in a inventive method. You can stay very organized and on monitor when utilizing Freemind because it includes diagrammatic representation of your ideas. Grammarly is likely one of the finest, if not the very best, grammar checkers out there on-line. It is very flexible and is on the market for on-line modifying on several platforms and applications. If concentration is an issue to you and you simply can’t appear to progress with your writing as you should, then give FocusWriting a attempt. It just isn't one of the best writing apps in relation to modifying your final work, however it'll by some means come in handy should you want full-time concentration to put down your concepts from scratch. It works more like paper writing because it blocks out each other content like the lures of social media and allows you to concentrate on the work at hand. Beautiful layouts for content material is the last word goal for any writer with a design-associated objective in mind. Designing instruments like Adobe InDesign are expensive to acquire, which is why Scribus is right here to make your work easier. Labbé emphasizes that the nonsense computer science papers all appeared in subscription choices. In his view, there may be little proof that open-access publishers — which cost fees to publish manuscripts — necessarily have less stringent peer review than subscription publishers. Labbé says that the newest discovery is merely one symptom of a “spamming war began at the heart of science” by which researchers really feel pressured to hurry out papers to publish as a lot as attainable. The IEEE wouldn't say, nevertheless, whether it had contacted the authors or editors of the suspected SCIgen papers, or whether submissions for the related conferences have been imagined to be peer reviewed. “We proceed to follow strict governance tips for evaluating IEEE conferences and publications,” Stickel stated. Most of the conferences occurred in China, and a lot of the pretend papers have authors with Chinese affiliations. Nature has not heard something from a number of enquiries. Sixteen appeared in publications by Springer, which is headquartered in Heidelberg, Germany, and more than a hundred have been published by the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers , primarily based in New York. Both publishers, which were privately knowledgeable by Labbé, say that they are now eradicating the papers. The free Hemingway app “makes your writing bold and clear” by highlighting potential edits. Different colours help you spot sentences which might be too lengthy or too dense, complex words, adverbs that may be eradicated, and locations the place you’re incorrectly using passive voice. By writing within the Hemingway app, you can pare down your ideas to their most concise type. In December 2013, Labbé informed the IEEE of one other batch of apparent SCIgen articles he had found. Last week, these have been additionally taken down, but the net pages for the removed articles give no explanation for his or her absence. “I wasn’t aware of the size of the issue, however I knew it definitely happens. Labbé doesn't know why the papers had been submitted — or even when the authors had been conscious of them. Where your grammar checker fails, ProWriting Aid is the reply. This is a multipurpose App that edits, coaches writing and guides on writing styles. The reports produced if you upload your document on ProWriting Aid are very instrumental in the improvement of textual content quality and power of opinion primarily based on word choices. A skilled writer would always ensure the textual content matches your tone and voice, and it follows your necessities. Ruth Francis, UK head of communications at Springer, says that the corporate has contacted editors, and is trying to contact authors, in regards to the points surrounding the articles which are coming down. The related conference proceedings have been peer reviewed, she confirms — making it extra mystifying that the papers were accepted. “The papers are quite simple to spot,” says Labbé, who has built a web site where users can test whether or not papers have been created utilizing SCIgen.

What is the writespace thing?

You mean in this post?

I will cheerfully talk about that post!

So, the actual word “writespace” is just me being a little bit idiomatic, it would have been less fanciful to say “here is a screenshot of the program in which I write, and the project I’m currently writing”, but the term is kind of fundamental to a few particular ideas I have about the way I write.

I am a big advocate of several things as far as the technical process of writing, and they are:

Writing in .txt format, formatting via markdown

Autosaves / Cloud Storage / Good backups

Versioning

Writing in programs (preferably some form of zenware) that are meant for WRITING, not word processing.

I’ll knock out a quick justification of these points below a cut:

1) .txt + markdown

It’s just a question of easy compatibility/minimal resources. .txt is usable across all operating systems, and easily saves and loads across a variety of devices. My computer and phone an handle text files very easily, and the formatting I use means that they’re super simple to copy straight onto tumblr. Markdown as a formatting scheme is fairly ubiquitous across the web. Markdown is very easy to learn, and its complexity scales easily from simple bold/italics up into things as complex as tiered headings, embedded notes/comments, and inline formatting like blockquotes and code. All much, much simpler than HTML, and just as easy to convert via wysiwyg editors. It prevents all the junk HTML/extra formatting that comes along with text that comes out of a .doc.

2) Autosaves / Cloud Storage / Backups

Should be fairly self-explanatory. Please learn to set this up, and more importantly, be practiced at retrieving backups as necessary. Learn where your files go and test what happens when you edit them from different places. The way my files are set up, my computer/phone will create different versions of a file if it detects a conflict. That is to say, if I make edits to the same file from two different places, it won’t save one over the other, if I’ve made different edits in a different place. It will detect the conflict and I’ll wind up with two different files. That’s really cool. I haven’t lost writing in a serious way in ages, and it’s just been such a load off my mind. I still reflexively ctrl+save on a periodic basis, but I also know that my writing program is autosaving every fifteen seconds. Which actually brings me to my next point:

3) Versioning

When I’m struggling with a chapter, sometimes what helps me most is to be able to scrap it entirely and start over. But I never like to delete anything entirely, in case I’m wrong about what needs to change. I like to have a system of some kind that lets me easily back up and retrieve earlier versions of chapters or segments or even just paragraphs, in case the ideas in them are valid later on. This can dovetail with autosaving/backups, because dropbox at least gives you the option to view the version history of a file. That means you can view the file at various points in its lifespan, and go back and retrieve previous iterations. Kill your darlings, but remember where you buried them, basically.

4) Writing Programs

Please don’t write in Microsoft Fucking Word. Word is a program meant for word processing, not for writing. It’s meant for taking extant text and formatting it specifically for print, or to exist as a virtual document. Writing that you intend to put online especially should be as simple and clean as possible, and writing itself is a lot easier if you don’t need to worry about margins/page sizes/all that extraneous shit that isn’t relevant to text that exists digitally. Those things should only be relevant as far as the view of the text you’re actually writing, and they should be readily and easily changeable for your own visual comfort.

So enter zenware. I personally use a program that’s a little less readily available than most other options, because what I use is a beta of the new writemonkey. If there’s interest, I’ll happily talk about the details of my process, and what one of my projects usually looks like, probably via a breakdown of the sort of image attached to the above post. But that’s a little less relevant, because the beta version of wm3 isn’t as readily/easily accessible as other programs are, right now.

Conveniently, the old version of writemonkey (http://writemonkey.com/) is still my #1 recc as far as writing programs go and has all of the same options I use currently, just in a slightly different format (worth noting that most of these are also plugins, and are behind a pay-what-you-like type donation). It’s a little bit barebones and hard to make an immediate adjustment to, but even just writing .rtf as opposed to .doc is a better option. For that sort of intermediate step, here are two other options you may or may not have heard of:

focuswriter: https://gottcode.org/focuswriter/

zenwriter: http://www.beenokle.com/zenwriter.html

Both make rich text format files as opposed to .docs, and can also be set to save as .txt by default. They both make their own cases fairly effectively, but I’d contend that once you start writing in a cleaner, less visually distracting space, your whole experience will change.

I don’t know of any good .rtf editors that are useful on phones, but as far as .txt editors, I wholeheartedly recommend Jotterpad. I’ve heard the recommendation of Writer for ios, but haven’t used it personally.

anyway! That got long, hopefully some of it was helpful! I’ll happily answer any further questions, as I said, another essential part of my process is talking about writing instead of actually writing.
