Ulysses is a unique text editor, which aims to give creative writers, novelists and storytellers the best writing experience available on any platform today. To achieve that, Ulysses includes an innovative "tabbed" single-window interface, featuring integrated Notepads, a Document Browser, advanced Search&Replace capabilities and multi-document previews.
Additionally, Ulysses sports sophisticated project management with advanced filtering features. This 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.
Ulysses was and still is on the forefront of text editing innovation: it set the stage for dedicated creative writing environments, pioneered the inclusion of the famous fullscreen mode (which is now standard with every other writing application on the Mac, see Pages '09), and also incorporates the unique concept of Semantic Text Editing. Using the powerful Tags and Markers, Ulysses removes the hassle of formatting the text and lets the writer concentrate fully on the content of his text. Text formats and the like are left to the extensible, plug-ins based Exporter. Ulysses enables the user to export his project into a wide variety of formats such as LaTeX, PDF, Word, RTF and Plain Text.
Since version 1.6, Ulysses has a little brother: Ulysses Core, which is priced at $35. Although being a lightweight version, it still has an immense list of features from its powerful brother.

I use Ulysses for writing website pages, so for me the export capabilities are truly awesome. I can set-up an HTML template that exports the complete page exactly how I need it.
Because of its multiple export options I can also create PDFs and ePubs.
If you need support then I am pleased to say that the developers are very quick to reply to emails. They take the time to help which is not the case with all developers.

The thing is AppStore only truly sucks. I think you know why.

If Ulysses is available only via the MCS then I'll just do without the app; the MaacCrapStore is totally persona non grata in my Mac using life.
Since some developers acknowledge that there are Mac users who don't like the MacCrapStore and others who do and offer their ware via their own websites as well as via the MCS why don't Soulmen do the same?
The trial download is available from their website so why not the purchase as well?

Just for fun, the developers' reply to someone who asked approximately the same question :
"if you're logged in to your App Store account, you should see your purchases in the Purchases tab and should be able to download Ulysses again. If that is not the case, I think there's not much we can do and I would suggest you ask Apple about that."

This was a reply to someone who bought the app ON the App Store. In which case there really is nothing we can do.
In your case, the App Store doesn't know about your previous Ulysses purchase, so it can't offer you any updates (and of course can't show Ulysses in "Purchased", as you never purchased it FROM the App Store).
To sum it up: The App Store only handles apps (updates, re-downloads) that were purchased there.
As for 2.0.6: There was a problem which prevented us from releasing it simultaneously on the App Store and for earlier purchasers, so we decided to skip that release altogether and concentrate on 2.1 instead. Bad idea, I guess, and we'll see if we can get 2.0.6 out for everybody asap. :)
Cheers,
Marcus
