[Movie Magic Screenwriter](http://www.screenplay.com/p-29-movie-magic-screenwriter-6.aspx) is a popular scriptwriting word processor, like [Highland](http://quoteunquoteapps.com/highland/), [Final Draft](http://www.finaldraft.com/) or [Celtx](http://celtx.com/). It is available for both Macintosh and Windows.
Online, you may see the application referred to as:
* “Movie Magic Screenwriter”
* “Screenwriter”
* “Movie Magic”
* “MMS”
* “MMSW”
It is comparable in price and features to Final Draft. Each program has its fans and detractors.
Movie Magic Screenwriter uses a proprietary file format (.mmsw), but can also export in a range of other formats including text, RTF and PDF.
