Otherwise a simple editor that has to few feature to offer which could rectify the asking price.
I can highly recommend Fraise. Free and much better.

this is a Rich Text Editor, not a HTML editor. HTML is offered as a little "bonus", the editors main purpose is editing rich text documents.
I will however add more HTML syntax recognition soon, thanks for pointing this out.

thanks for your tips. I will get rid of the installer shortly and replace it with a drag and drop Disk Image.

Now, lets go on with the other impressions.
First, the trial - you can use it 5 times before being obligated to buy the app. The first time I used it, it crashed. Then every time I saved a file, WriteIt! considered it a launch. Needless to say that after 10 minutes the trial was over.
In addition, from what I could tell, it has a nice research window that allows you to search wikipedia or google. It has no zoom, although it has fullscreen. The html editor looks nice, since it colors the code. Alas, no time (trial) to try it further. That also means no time to import all the different type of files that WriteIt! is supposed to accept... or to export in all the different types.
Bottom line? WriteIt! has one of the worst trials I ever seen on a Mac. The app itself maybe good but, from what I could test, there are better word processors for Mac. And that includes, for instance, Bean that is freeware.
Given the fact that its trial is crippling, I will review it based on that also. That means: 2 stars (and I'm being generous, since many of the supposed features were impossible to test.
Deleted from my Mac.
