Scrivener is a text editor designed for writers. Scrivener contains a document, note and metadata managing system allowing the user to keep track of notes, concepts, research and whole documents for reference (documents including text, images, PDF, audio, video, web pages, etc.). After the user has written their piece, they may export it to their favorite word processor for formatting.
Keith Blount created the program as a tool to help him write the "big novel", a tool to keep track of all of his ideas and research. It is his first application, build mostly on libraries and features of Mac OS X v10.4.
