I just downloaded this a few hours ago…I’m a big fan of write or die, but honestly just didn’t have the ten bucks to spare. I really wanted something that I could use on my computer without being on the internet, (the Great Distraction). This program is working out perfectly for me. I set it to word muncher mode, and I’ve pounded out some pretty good stuff, if I do say so myself. Also, got me through one of the “boring” parts; you know, the ones where you HAVE to write it, so everyone knows what is going on back at the ranch, but you really just want to hurry along to the fight scene at the end. So, thanks for that.

Hi – using PunishPad a lot and loving it. One little quibble, though: is it possible to add bold, italics, and underlines to the pad?

I will look into implementing it in the next version when I resume development.

Thank you, this is really a very helpful software.
I wonder if it is possible to add character count? (i.e. count characters, not words).

Does the timer work properly? Last time I tried running it under Mono (using the exe compiled from Visual Studio) the Stopwatch class didn’t behave properly, which broke the program.
