dark room is a full screen, distraction free, writing environment. unlike standard word processors that focus on features, dark room is just about you and your text.

basically, dark room is a clone of the original writeroom that is an os x (tiger) exclusive application. it is a child of necessity, as there were no viable alternatives in windows to produce the same behavior. sure, you can kind of emulate the behavior by jumping through a bunch of hoops in word/writer, but it isn’t the same. also, you can do something similar in emacs, but who wants to learn a bunch of obscure keyboard shortcuts?
