Product Description:

Ulysses is a unique Mac OS X text editing environment aimed directly at creative writers.

With its innovative "tabbed" single-window interface, featuring integrated notepads, a documents browser, advanced search/filter capabilities and multi-document previews, Ulysses aims to give creative writers, novelists and storytellers the best writing experience available on any platform today.

Ulysses lets the writer focus entirely on content while aiding him in organizing the multiple parts of his work without forcing him into any pre-defined structure whatsoever. Developed exclusively for creative writers, Ulysses lacks both the functional overload of traditional word processors and the developers-oriented approach of classic text editors.

Additionally, Ulysses sports an extensible, plug-ins based export feature which enables the user to export his project into various formats such as "Plaintext", "RTF" and "LaTeX".

Latest upgrade dates back to 2007-06-27 ! I have tried the demo version and it is fast, sometimes confusing, but interesting.
Who would buy an expensive abandonware ?

Ulysses CommentaryToo Expensive, try Scrivener instead - Version: 1.5.1, 1/1/2008 01:59PM PST

This is $116.70, and doesn't seem to do as much as Scrivener which only costs $39.95.
I'd look at Scrivener if I were you. It's an excellent program and only costs 34% as much!

I really like the program, but I can not recommend it at this price. Its worth $70 US Max! If they dropped the price to a reasonable point I would highly recommend it.... Instead try OmniOutliner...
