Best programs to write Scribe 07/04/2023 (Tue) 23:20:42 No. 620
What are the best programs you anons have been using to write your stories? I have seen another person mention Scrivener and I must say, it's pretty damn good.
>>620 Uhhhh Wordpad?
>>625 Wordpad sucks, notepad is the superior choice.
>>629 Use Notepad++ Yes it is made by a weird leftist, but it is honestly one of the best programs to keep track of notes
>>632 >Yes it is made by a weird leftist To be fair that's true of most tech related stuff.
>>636 Yeah, but he's genuinely weird even by commie standards for inserting his politics in the patch notes. Still though, it's objectively the best note-taking tool on the market and the coding plugins are pretty nifty.
Why are any of these programs better? I use Word over Notepad because I can do some basic formatting, but I don't need anything beyond that for writing prose. The only things I've found that seem more useful are programs that make it easier to automatically format scripts, plays/screenplays, etc.. But those are for specific uses. What makes Notepad++ or Scrivener more useful for writing things other than notes?
