The editors of Macworld named Highland one of the [best products of 2013](http://www.macworld.com/article/2071020/macworld-editors-choice-awards-the-best-products-of-2013.html?page=2):
> Writing is hard. Writing a script or screenplay can be harder. That’s why we like Highland, Quote-Unquote Apps’ minimalistic $20 screenwriting tool. Highland offers writers a clean, unadorned space to work on their screenplay.
> All Highland files are saved as plain text, allowing you to open them in just about any program on your Mac, PC, or iOS device. You can even import your PDFs and Final Draft files into the app for easy editing, and then export them back into their original formats for further work.
> Certainly for those in the film industry, this app is more than worth its price.
Many thanks to the editors of Macworld, and big congratulations to the Quote-Unquote apps team for their hard work on Highland.
Nima Yousefi has built and rebuilt Highland’s parsing engine a dozen times, taking it from impressive to magical to so-good-you-forget-it’s-difficult. (The next build is even better.)
Ryan Nelson has designed and tweaked our graphics down to the pixel. Minimalism is hard, because there’s nothing to hide behind.
Stuart Friedel keeps tabs on sales figures and industry chatter. He and I use the app daily, so it’s often our observations and annoyances that set the agenda.
I was excited to see so many other apps I love on the list of Eddy winners, incluing 1Password, Badland, Bartender, Capo, Drafts 3, Fantastical 2 for iPhone, Gone Home (Craig’s One Cool Thing), IFTTT, Launch Center Pro, and nvAlt.
For 2014, we’ll be keeping up development of Highland while introducing a new app that works related magic for folks who deal with screenplays.
In the meantime, you can [check out Highland](http://highland.quoteunquoteapps.com/blog-eddy) on the Mac App Store.
