People used to write scripts on a typewriter.
I use MS Works and/or MS Word.
It just involves setting tabs.
Most of the time and work of scriptwriting, involves basic
rewriting. It doesn't have much to do with software features.
What are the features of Final Draft that make screenwriting
so much easier than, say, Word?   -doug
