Manuskript: A Free Scrivener Alternative

I spend a month exploring a free novel writing software with many of the same features as Scrivener. Works with Linux, Mac, and Windows.

Good review, thank you. And credit to you for having the patience with Manuskript's learning curve. For me the discontinued development was the deal breaker because I wanted to like M. but realised it wasn't going to improve. It's fascinating to see how authors use just a few different bits of Scrivener, you're not alone with that, may have previously mentioned the podcast *Write Now With Scrivener* and no one uses the whole programme. For what it's worth, I'm using FocusWriter which runs native in Linux. I'm using folders to try and emulate a "binder" but it's clunky! 🙂
