I had yWriter on my PC, which my wife now uses.

I purchased a used MacBook Pro and a copy of XMware Fusion. I had an old copy of Windows 7, so I loaded everything up on my Mac. Everything works perfectly.

I then installed yWriter on my Mac. ---- I still can't seem to wrap my head around the software. For me, it seems so 'busy'. I do like the way one can add so many details to what one is working on, but (again) it just seems repetitive in the menus and the 'hidden' menus/commands, etc, which seem more numerous than Tribbles!

I also own WriteWay Pro, having purchased it about 3 years ago. It's a fine program, but I now use Scrivener instead of that program. I also installed WriteWay Pro on my Mac.

WriteWay Pro is only available for a PC - not for a Mac. But that's no problem if one runs a virtual system.

Here's a link to their website:
