SimpleText is a wonderfully easy-to-use program that is included with virtually every Mac. Unfortunately, it has a very limited feature set.

SimpleText Enhancer adds both a substantial list of new features and a Tool Bar to SimpleText while making SimpleText even easier to use. In fact, some of the features included with SimpleText Enhancer aren't even available in many word processors and text editors.

SimpleText Enhancer includes a File Converter Utility. By simply dragging a ReadMe file onto the converter, you can convert a read-only file into editable text.

You may also use the File Converter to create your own ReadMe files.

Here are some key features of "SimpleText Enhancer":
You can set your own keyboard shortcut for printing one copy of a file, completely bypassing the need to use your Mouse and/or to navigate a Print Dialog box.
Additional text styles may be selected from the SimpleText Enhancer Tool Bars.
SimpleText Enhancer's Tool Bars let you quickly move up or down through your document, one page at a time.
