My taskbar stays visible no matter what I do. If it wasn't for that glitch I would happily ditch Q10 for this. Some features are great. (And yes, I do have the last .NET framework installed).

As in a browser, F11 makes Notepad++ go fullscreen. Its colors can be configured similar to Write Monkey. That's not to say it replaces Write Monkey, but for Notepad++ users interested specifically in those features, there's no need to use another program.

It basically has all of the features of DarkRoom, and then some. Very nice, and portable. Most importantly, it doesn't force you to go fullscreen (F10 options, disable starting fullscreen). I like the option of picking green text on black, of course. Concerning the inability to save as doc, etc... the only point in using a word processor like this is the dark theme ability and the lack of distractions. Copy/paste into Openoffice is just part of the process. Not a big deal for me, at least. Wow. It basically has all of the features of DarkRoom, and then some. Very nice, and portable.
