Trelby Screenwriting App



Trelby is a very nice well thought out, multi-platform, feature-rich screenwriting program. Trelby is simple and fast to make screenwriting simple. It is infinitely configurable. We gave it a test run and enjoy using it... Nothing to distract... just start writing. The ability to compare changes in scripts, a name database, capability to produce various reports, and much more.
