    I just read a review of this program elsewhere and it mentioned that there *was* a spell-check function under the Tools tab. It even showed a screenshot (F7 is the shortcut key).

    Not a good app since it doesn't have most of the features with latest versions which is now available with any upgraded features.

    The best word processing program ever!. The best word processing program ever! 99.9% of the time used for writing is simply writing, formating, adding pictures etc is the remaining 0.1% and that can be done in some other program.Per Cons: There are some problem to use the proof while you write function, if you don't like to use mouse (as I). F7 key can be used as alternative to right mouse-klick, it does not work without mouse. There seems to be a bug (in the Linux version only?)

    Super-clean, attractive interface; great for journaling and pure writing . I use FocusWriter along with about 5 other word processors. With modern machines, you can easily have multiple word processors for different writing purposes. I use FocusWriter when I want a very clean, very attractive interface that is as simple and clean as possible. It also auto-saves files so that you don't lose work, which is a must-have feature for all my word processors. Another great feature is sessions, and particularly that when you close FocusWriter and reopen it, it restores you to *exactly* where you were when it closed -- the very same files are open, and the cursor is exactly where it was when you closed it. It's amazing this is not a universal feature in word processors. It takes literaly two seconds to to close FocusWriter, reopen it, and keep typing wherever you left off. This makes it a great program for journaling. Pros: reopens sessions exactly where you left offauto-save; very clean, pleasing interface Cons: only saves in TXT, RTF or ODT.basic features; focus is on pure writing.

    FocusWriter, where have you been all my life?. I've been looking for a lightweight, no-nonsense writing program for a while that doesn't bog the user down with gratuitous features or unfriendly user interfaces. This is the fastest, most intuitive notepad replacement I've used. The customization options were exactly what I've been looking for. I can't rate this highly enough. Pros: very fast, user-friendly, customization is excellent
