Any of you guys ever use Writer? I've been looking for a replacement text editor to Notepad. I love the typewriter sound effects that Writer offers and the fact it has a spell checker, but that it constantly auto-saves my writing online to bigshilllabs (I have a theory the website that operates Writer has been actively shilling on /v/ for some time, so in a way I hate to even mention it here but that's another story) is a deal-breaker for me. Although, supposedly it's "secure" and can be used offline, but I still don't trust it, nor can I figure out how to use it in offline mode. Any other editors you guys recommend, particularly if they have typewriter sounds? I just think they're fun.

If I remember correctly Q10, and FocusWriter both have typewriter sounds as well. I used the latter for some time, it's pretty good.

You should focus on writing regardless of the word processor regardless of how bloated it might be. The most I do is bold italicized the title, bookman old style font, and 8 or 10 point font size, 1.0 spacing, and then write. It doesn't detract from the writing in the least.

No offense but if you don't enjoy playing around with fonts you're doing it wrong. No fun allowed, shit.

Bookman is my favorite font, though Geor gi is nice

As someone who actually uses a typewriter on occasion, that sounds like it would be extremely annoying.
