Classic Mode. For writers who'd rather not learn Fountain's marks. Click Classic in the top bar's Fountain | Classic switch, or use Settings, the command palette, or Mod+Alt+0. Then the script types the way many screenwriting apps work:

  • Enter and Tab move from element to element. Enter after a heading gives Action, after a name gives Dialogue, and after a speech gives the next name. Tab turns Action into a name, and a speech into a parenthetical.
  • Names and places fill themselves in from the first letter.
  • Capitals and marks are done for you. Headings, names, and transitions capitalise themselves.
  • The left side looks like a script. The marks are hidden, and each element sits where a page puts it.
  • On a phone, a Next button above the keyboard does what Tab does.

Your file stays plain Fountain. It holds exactly what you could have typed by hand, so nothing is locked in. Fountain Mode stays the default, and switching changes nothing you've written. The Classic Mode help page has every key.

Also in this release:

  • On phones narrower than 480px, the top bar shows Drafter's mark instead of the full name, so Save and Export stay on the bar.
  • A Markdown quote nested thousands deep no longer stops the Source pane from updating.

Full details: CHANGELOG.

Downloads: Windows x64 installer, Linux .deb and AppImage, and Drafter for Claude (drafter-mcp-0.25.0.js with its SHA-256).
