iA Writer

iA Writer (was iA Writer Pro) is a professional writing suite that gives you full control over your notes, drafts and edits.

• Workflow: Note - Write - Edit - Read. Each stage has a task-specific typeface and color.
• Syntax Control scans the syntax of English, French, German, Italian, and Spanish text and highlights your adjectives, nouns, verbs, adverbs, prepositions or conjunctions.
• Precision Writing Tools:
• Auto Markdown formats text on-screen -- your hands stay on the keyboard
• Syntax Control introduces syntactic markup for natural language text. It covers English, French, German, Italian, and Spanish. Patent pending.
• Convert Markdown to Microsoft Word 2007 .docx, and back again
