smooth and easy, for the most part
I like Slugline a lot, and find that Fountain fits really well into my workflow. For an initial draft of a screenplay, or for smaller pieces, it’s clean and easy to use. It’s no Final Draft, but if you don’t need all those features, this will do just fine.
The lack of any global app preferences is kind of irritating, though. Scene headings options, character continued lines and choice of font all have to be set manually for EVERY document separately — instead of there being global Preferences in the app. (There is a Preference panel, but the developer uses it as a place to be cute and say “I prefer writing” with only a button that says “I agree”.) Not particularly helpful.
