   Scrivener 2.5

   Agen G. N. Schmitz

   Adding compatibility with OS X 10.9 Mavericks, Literature & Latte has
   released [1]Scrivener 2.5 now includes support for tags when saving and
   exporting. The word processor also bundles a Java runtime environment
   so that it doesn't need to ask permission to install Java when running
   converters for .doc, .docx and .odt files, though it wil only on
   systems running 10.7.3 Lion and later. (If you're running a previous
   system, you'll need to install Java on your own.) Because of the Java
   bundling, Scrivener more than doubles its file size (from 35.7 MB for
   version 2.4 to 76 MB for this update).

   Amongst a lengthy list of changes, the update also improves imported
   notes from Scapple (Literature & Latte's freeform text editing
   utility), ensures that the Kindle export no longer ignores differences
   between justified and left text alignment, adds the capability to
   strike out text in PDFs, enables you to drag images from the Scrivener
   editor to the Finder, and adds German, French and Spanish
   localizations. ($45 new from Literature & Latte and the [2]Mac App
   Store, free update, 76 MB, [3]release notes)
