What is Scrivener?

Scrivener is a program designed for writers. Our interest here focuses on its tools for organizing, annotating, and managing documents that are used by lawyers in litigation and as a means of presenting organized text items of all kinds - judicial decisions, statutes, regulations, legal articles, and full textbooks.

Scrivener has a modest cost, $49 for a single license, but its document management capabilities are very powerful. It is available from Literature & Latte.
