Version: Dark Room 0.8b
"Back to 1983"
Pros: This little novelty program takes you back to old times of DOS and pre-DOS word processing.
Cons: Can not be considered as a real word processor. While you can change fonts and their sizes, you lose any formatting while saving your file, as its saves it in only a .txt format. You can't print with it. Therefore, you must copy/paste your work into a real word processor when you're done typing. Also, MS Word and other processors allow you to change background and font colors into any you might want, so there isn't much practical use for this little program.

I don't recommend it as you can't use spell check but if you press Ctrl+P that should print.
Also you can save in other formats by putting a "." after the item you're saving then press your preferred extension.
eg. "shopping list" would be saved as "shopping list.doc".
