Hemingway for the PC and OS X - editor that will help make your text easier

Hemingway - a web-based service and application for Windows and OS X, which will be useful to all who work with text. They help to find overloaded proposals and reduce them, facilitating the perception of readers of the text.

In an age when to write and to have your audience, anyone can, if desired, to stand difficult. You have to write something interesting or useful. Otherwise, the outcome is clear: the result of your work no one will be needed.

Therefore, the writing - a skill that must be developed. This can be done by means of courses, articles and books by other writers. Of course, one must also consume as many books as possible. But there is one more tool - services. They will not be able to turn shit into honey to sweeten it but they still work.

One such tool, which, it seems to me, is the most popular, - Hemingway. It is named in honor of writerWho was famous for brevity and simplicity of writing style. His task - to help others achieve the same writers. Hemingway determines the complexity of each proposal for the reader and tells you which ones should be simplified. This is done based on the number of words, the frequency of use of the passive voice and verbs.

But Hemingway does not exist only in the form of service, but also in a version for OS X and PC. In both cases, it is a fairly simple text editor. In the second version, to which the application has been updated recently, you can:

• to see what offers are difficult to read;
• format text (lists, headers, links).

We can not say that Hemingway loses another minimalist text editors. In the Write mode with the screen removed all the elements, so it becomes very comfortable to write. Once you dopishet, you can switch to Edit mode. In it will be available for formatting and information on which proposals should be reduced.

Unfortunately, congestion and passive verbs Hemingway defines only in texts in English. But this does not prevent the application to be very useful: often do not notice the extensiveness of their reasoning. Therefore, if you often work with the text and want to make it easier to read, Hemingway - what you need. The web version of the service is free, and a text editor for the PC and OS X costs $ 9.99. Functionally, they are no different, but the Web version, of course, does not work without the Internet.
