What is TextRoom?

TextRoom is a room of your own. Read GPLv3

It is a free (as in freedom and free beer) full screen text editor developed with especially writers in mind.

TextRoom and all other similar editors share one goal: to get you writing right away by providing distraction free environment to your liking, as well as familiar set of keyboard shortcuts to control its behavior. If you don't feel comfortable already with your editor of choice, you may find it useful.

Works on Windows, Ubuntu, Fedora and other Linux distributions. Has been ported to FreeBSD, thanks to Michael James Brune. Works on Mac OS X thanks to Norberto Lopes. Silent version was reported to compile on OS/2 with a little tweak.
