Very nice text editor. I have learned to keep it open. This is because I can save those files directly into Day One- I love that. One can save into other apps too. And I have also gotten fond of the files it creates-this thing is very nice, And I don't know how anyone can beat the price. A winner.

Das ist eine der besten Textverarbeitungsprogramme mit denen ich bisher gearbeitet habe. Sehr gut gefällt mir die erweiterte Suche aufgrund derer man komplexe wenn/dann Beziehungen abfragen und zum Ersetzen nutzen kann. Auch das Vergleichen von zwei Dateien ist sehr gut. Preis/ Leistung stimmen. Danke dem Entwicklungs Team

Meanwhile I use macOS High Sierra and therefore I udated to Smultron 10.1.6. It works like version 8 and 9, is fast and small and the developer always updates very fast if it is necessary. The new features are great, especially the dark mode. I use it beside textedit from Apple very often and really can recommend it...

Still using the free 4.3.1 I see no reason to do a payed upgrade with no interesting new things.
