Frequently Meditated Questions

Only Mac? Is there going be a PC version available soon?
Maybe. Given the overwhelming positive response we have received from users, we are investigating what it would take to have a version for the PC platform. Stay tuned.
What Mac OS versions do you support?
Officially, Ommwriter supports Mac OS 10.5.0 and higher. However, we highly recommend Mac OS 10.6 +. At the moment there are no plans to support older Mac OS versions.
Any plans on having more background images and sounds in Ommwriter?
Yes. However, they must first pass the Ommwriter test capable of generating peace and tranquility.
How about more fonts and basic formatting features like bold, underline etc. ?
We are looking into it. Remember, Ommwriter is not meant to replace your current text editor or word processor.
Do you offer automatic spell-checking ?
Ommwriter does not offer an in-built spell-checker. However, we have been told that you can enable the spell-checking feature of your Mac to work together with Ommwriter. How? Right click on the text box, choose "Spelling and Grammar >> Check Spelling While you Type". This will underline misspelled words, using your system settings language.
How does Ommwriter work with the Short-cut keys?
Apple Shortcut + S saves, Apple Shortcut + Q quits, Apple Shortcut + A selects all, Apple Shortcut + H hides OmmWriter, etc...
