Plain text import/conversion tools Options to parse a simplified version of Markdown (MarkdownFic) or interpret custom markers for detecting italics, headings, etc. Word .docx support for import/export Auto-saving and auto-backup options Saves chapters as .txt files with light Markdown-style formatting, so even if WareWoolf disappears you will always be able to read/edit the documents you create with it. I know that's a quick version jump, but this has some fundamental changes, primarily the switch to saving chapters as plain text .txt files with MarkdownFic markdown for formatting.
