Bean is a small, easy-to-use word processor that includes:

• a live word count • a Get Info panel for in-depth statistics • a zoom-slider to easily change the view scale • an Inspector panel with lots of sliders • date-stamped backups • autosaving • a page layout mode • an alternate colors option (e.g., white text on blue) • selection of text by text style, paragraph style, color, etc. • a floating windows option (like Stickies has) • all of Cocoa's good stuff (dictionary, word completion, etc.)
