No task bar, nothing. Pressing and holding the F3 key let’s me ‘peek’ at what’s behind, and F11 makes it a regular window. But fullscreen is where the love is.

Also, to make it more readable, I’m using the Consolas font at 15 points in Silver on an almost, but not quite, black background.

Loving it.

I've looked at the screenshots on the WriteMonkey website, but I'm not sure I totally get it yet...I might just have to try installing it and giving it a go.</p> Sounds interesting, Ben.

However, it will only take less than 5min to download and run WriteMonkey. I'd suggest you do that first, make sure it works the way you want to work. If if does (and it did for me) then install the firefox addon, then if you want to write your pieces using the Markdown markup, then take the extra step.</p> <p>Start with step one, and progress from there.</p> <p>Look forward to hearing your thoughts and experiance in getting it up and going.</p> Hi Annabel,

Start with step one, and progress from there.

Look forward to hearing your thoughts and experiance in getting it up and going.

Please tell, how long did it take? Writing's not the problem for me but distractions are so this sounds like a great solution. Thanks for sharing it with us:)</p> It sounds great but worried about the set up time. Please tell, how long did it take?
