Nice. There are also WriteRoom (mac) and DarkRoom (win), and on Linux PyRoom, whose website is defunct but which does have a wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PyRoom.

I would just use nano or vim, but their disadvantage is that word wrap, and moving around between wrapped lines, don't work (by default) like you'd want from a plaintext editor.

:set wrap would make it work in vim or neovim ?

You also probably want

    :noremap j gj
    :noremap k gk
So j/k operate on "one display line" instead of ignoring wrapping.
