It's my birthday in a few weeks and I'm thinking of persuading friends to chip in to purchase writing software. As lots of people seem fond of Scrivener (Windows), I've been considering that. But what can it do that other programs can't?
For example, I'm a huge fan of Word's outline view, and often use this to brainstorm and format writing. I also use Write Or Die, then paste the results into the relevant part of the Word outline.

For prompts, I use a small program called Mikkomatrix, which I've customised for a greater variety of random prompts.

What does Scrivener do which is unique to this program? Is the Windows version worth having?

I know many are big fans of it, please bring me up to speed. Thanks.
