yWriter - software for book writers

Submitted by rbon on October 26, 2024 - 1:40pm

(description from author's website)
yWriter is a word processor which breaks your novel into chapters and scenes, helping you keep track of your work while leaving your mind free to create. It will not write your novel for you, suggest plot ideas or perform creative tasks of any kind. yWriter was designed by an author, not a salesman!

Text Expander - Espanso

Program: Espanso
License: Open Source/GPL-3
Description: A text-expander, which replaces commonly-used text phrases with longer versions, to save time in typing, and/or to allow for typing things that would be rather complicated (without a specialized keyboard), like emoji or currency symbols for not-your-current-locale. Frequently for mobile platforms, this is built into the default keyboard, but (to my knowledge) requires software on all major personal computer OSes. Also allows for scripting and replacing text with dynamic values, like current time or date.
