Fountain is<br>
an entirely different language -- it would require entirely
different<br>
parsing and smart editing support.</p>
<p>I'm intrigued by Fountain (I actually wrote a simply markup
-><br>
screenplay format tool about 15 years ago that was very similar to
what<br>
the Fountain folks ended up doing later).</p>
<p>I've had a couple of requests for Fountain support, but I'm not
sure<br>
there's enough interest to justify the work. If I did anything,<br>
however, it would be a separate app as most of the parts would not
be<br>
cross-compatible.</p>
<p>That said, I imagine it would end up behaving just like you
would expect<br>
a Fountain editor made by me to work.</p>
<p>Feel free to stir up interest among any other screenwriters you
know.<br>
Maybe I could get talked into it one day.</p>

right into the name.</p>
<p>I hope your Fountain curiosity continues to be tickled, as I'm
sure a Fountain app written by you would be every bit as slick and
professional as MMC.</p>
<p>In particular, I am surprised that none of the existing editors
that support Fountain also support CriticMarkup. Really surprised,
as scripts undergo endless revisions. Should you decide to dip your
toes into those waters, I hope you would bake that in from the very
start.</p>
<p>I'll see if I can raise any interest elsewhere, but organizing
writers is even worse than herding cats. I'm surprised the WGA even
exists...</p>
<p>Thanks for getting back to me.</p>
<p>Cheers!</p></div>fred
