JustWrite - a Mac OS X "Full Screen Editor" application June 20, 2010 INTRODUCTION I created JustWrite as an experiment to see if I could create a full-screen, plain text editor on Mac OS X using Java. The idea to create a full-screen editor was inspired in part by an application I wrote named WikiTeX, which lets me place a "curtain" behind the editor to hide my desktop, and my Hyde application (http://www.devdaily.com/hide-desktop-and-desktop-icons), whose only purpose is to hide a Mac OS X desktop to let you focus on your foreground application (whatever that foreground app might be). LICENSE JustWrite is Copyright 2010, Alvin Alexander, http://devdaily.com. This software is released under the terms of the GNU GPL Version 3; see the LICENSE file included with this software, or http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html for more information. LIBRARIES USED JustWrite uses the following open source libraries: * Quaqua (http://www.randelshofer.ch/quaqua/) * Jgoodies (http://www.jgoodies.com/) VERSION There is no official version of this application yet. BUILDING THE APPLICATION You can just run "ant" from the "build" directory to get this build to run, BUT, you will need Ant installed, and will need to properly install the jarbundler jar file into your ant/lib folder. See the "Mac OS X JarBundler Ant Task" project (http://informagen.com/JarBundler/) for more information on that. Running the "ant" command from the build directory will create a complete build of the JustWrite application, i.e., the JustWrite.app folder. This folder will be created in the "release" directory of this project. RUNNING THE APPLICATION To run the application, you can just cd over to the "release" folder, and then type this command: open JustWrite.app Or, if you prefer, you can double-click the application icon from the Mac Finder. ABOUT THE ICON Like everything else here, the current icon needs some work. The current icon is a heavily modified version of an icon that I first found on the MouseRunner.com website, and is released under the Creative Commons license. See http://www.mouserunner.com/ for more information. MORE INFORMATION Imagen was created by Alvin Alexander of http://www.devdaily.com Please see the devdaily.com website for more information.
