FocusWriter overview

FocusWriter is a simple, distraction-free writing environment. It utilizes a hide-away interface that you access by moving your mouse to the edges of the screen, allowing the program to have a familiar look and feel to it while still getting out of the way so that you can immerse yourself in your work. It’s available for Linux, Windows, and Mac OS X, and has been translated into many different languages.

Features:
  • TXT, basic RTF, and basic ODT file support
  • Timers and alarms
  • Daily goals
  • Fully customizable themes
  • Typewriter sound effects (optional)
  • Live statistics (optional)
  • Spell-checking (optional)
  • Multi-document support
  • Sessions
  • Portable mode (optional)
  • Translated into over 20 languages

Note: While the software is classified as free, it is actually donationware. Please consider making a donation to help support development.

I love this app on Linux and Windows, its one of the best freewares around IMHO. Unfortunately will not install unless its OSX 10.14+. Details are incorrect, feel lifted up and dropped.
