Developer(s) The PyRoom Team Type Text editor Website pyroom.org		Operating system Unix-like License GPLv3

Stable release 0.4.1 / April 29, 2009; 7 years ago (2009-04-29)

PyRoom is a full-screen writing program, i.e. a full-screen text editor with the purpose of isolating the user from the operating system and other applications. Written using the GTK+ widget toolkit, PyRoom is a clone of the WriteRoom text editor and features "distraction-free writing". Because PyRoom takes up the whole screen, it is "without buttons, widgets, formatting options, menus and with only the minimum of required dialog windows". It is keyboard oriented and can be configured.

Pyroom supports the following keyboard commands:

Control-H: Show help in a new buffer

Control-I: Show buffer information

Control-P: Shows Preferences dialog

Control-N: Create a new buffer

Control-O: Open a file in a new buffer

Control-Q: Quit

Control-S: Save current buffer

Control-Shift-S: Save current buffer as

Control-W: Close buffer and exit if it was the last buffer

Control-Y: Redo last typing

Control-Z: Undo last typing

Control-Page Up: Switch to previous buffer

Control-Page Down: Switch to next buffer
