NAME

       Manuskript - open-source tool for writers

SYNOPSIS

       manuskript [filename.msk]

DESCRIPTION

       Manuskript  is  an  open  source  tool for writers. It provides a rich environment to help
       writers create their first draft and then further refine and edit their masterpiece.

       Though many features are already working as expected, Manuskript is still in  development,
       and  in  need of extensive testing. If you consider using it for serious work, do frequent
       backup!

FEATURES

       Writing modes
              Manukskript offers two writing modes: one “fiction” mode with  all  the  tools  for
              fiction  writers (summary, characters, plot, world/context, etc.), and one “simple”
              mode, with only the writing tab.

       Outliner
              You can organize your thoughts and snippets in a hierarchical manner. Organize them
              as you wish, reorganize them on the go.

       Customizable distraction-free mode
              Get  rid  of  all distraction while writing or lock yourself until you’ve reached a
              certain goal.

       Novel assistant
              Use the snowflake method to grow your single genius idea in a coherent whole,  with
              complex characters, intricate plots and detailed universe.

       Open and plain-text file format
              Depending  on  your configuration, everything is either stored zipped in one single
              file or as several small  text  files  in  one  folder  (to  allow  versioning  and
              collaborative editing).

       Index Cards
              Use index cards to organise your thoughts: notes, scenes, chapters, etc.

       Frequency Analyzer
              The  frequency  analyzer  helps you find out what words or sentences your using the
              most.

       Story line
              Get an overview of your work through different strands, of which texts  are  nodes.
              As  of  now,  only  Plots are displayed, but in the near future you might use it to
              track anything: characters, object, place, or any other element of your  work.   As
              soon  as you reference something in the notes / references field, it will appear in
              the story line.

       Inline help
              You can activate help texts in the program's help menu.
