Trelby is a screenwriting program for Windows designed that allows users to create professional-quality scripts in a clean, distraction-free interface.
Formatting
Just like Shaxpir, here it is possible to make sure that every line follows industry-standard screenplay formatting. Writers do not need to manually align margins or worry about spacing, as the app handles all layout conventions automatically. Moreover, keyboard shortcuts help to quickly toggle between script elements.
As for storytelling, you can view a full breakdown of scenes via built-in reports. The character name database automatically titles and tracks dialogues. What is more, you are able to compare two different versions of the same script simultaneously. It is possible to check changes and revisions with color-coded highlights, quite helpful during editing and rewrites.
Export
Finished scripts can be exported in multiple formats, including PDF with optional watermarking, HTML, RTF and the open Fountain format. The software maintains perfect alignment and font consistency during export. Thus, it is easy to share scripts with producers, agents or collaborators.
