Product Description:
Schreiben Word Processor. Simple. Fast. Centric. Schreiben was my first application for Mac OS X. I needed a fast, clean and easy to use word processor which opens in the middle of the screen. I don't like the behaviour of other word processors you first have to center on the screen. Three years later Schreiben is still my favorite application and because other developers let me learn from their code, I did not use Word for years now. Schreiben is based on the Cocoa Text System - so you can open and write RichText and Word Files. You can create tables, drop and resize pictures or even write XML. Schreiben has got an integrated statistic (Character, Words, Lines) so you won't miss your editors (teachers, etc.) defaults, you can store often used Snippets and AutoSave documents.

I Love this app, but haven't been able to update it since version 5.0. I know if I download this version here and replace my 5.0 version with this, it will take it bake to trial.

I also like Bean. But having decided to ignore the developer's mush, i was pleasantly surprised to find that this app is truly excellent, as well as elegant. (iMac/Snow Leopard).

Admittedly, I have searched Leopard vs. Tiger 10.4, and find nothing new in Leopard (as for my uses) that justifies the cost in $ or hardrive for Leopard. I'll check "Snow" Leopard someday.
Previously, with Tiger I used Schreiben for a while. Speaking of ease and simplicity for writing legal documents and for a lawyer, for writing simple letters, for all the important, frequent, and basic uses, I am more than satisfied with an alternative called "Bean" ( named after coffee bean and those of us who work late at night and rely on a cup of java). Bean is simple pleasure to use and gives no problems.
If Schreiben is really that better, I would think the author would include the few adaptations that would enable it for use on Tiger.
Before passing judgment on any simple processor, you owe it to yourself to download and try Bean.
