OK, but has issues

Its great at what it does when it does what its great at. Full screen, distraction-free writing is its forte. Interaction with the OS and other features - not so much. Full-screen is kludgy at best. Since thats the entire point of distraction-free writing, it seems like the first thing youd want to get right, but alas... It can and will cause the application to crash and be unable to re-open. Opening a document in full screen while WriteRoom is already running makes it full screen as the default desktop, making everything else on that screen inaccessible. You have to exit full screen then make it full screen explicitly for it to work. Sounds are great, but crippled: the space bar needs its own sound. Sessions are really cool, but theyre incorrectly formatted: theres no space after the headers and the first line of session data so you have to manually edit the session file or it doesnt show up in Excel correctly. There needs to be a markup export feature. I had to buy another app to parse my output. The auto-indent feature is beyond useless and annoying as hell. If someone thinks its useful, please give the rest of us the option of getting rid of it.

Its a great concept but execution is pretty flawed. To be fair though, none of these stop me from using it. Mostly because Im too lazy to try and find a competitor.
