Just messing around. I'm typing this, using the enhanced writing area, which is a JavaScript-based feature, instead of the simple, HTML textarea box.

I used ctrl-j to shift to a mode that contains no buttons, no split screen, nothing. It's not full-screen mode, left and right. I still use margin space when using the ctrl-j mode. But it's full-screen vertically.

The only item visible is the cursor and the text. And when hitting F-11 within the browser, the browser's menus and bars disappear. Very simple screen display.

Then I used ctrl-d to switch from the default black text on the white background to light grey text on a black or nearly black background.

I'm typing this in our computer room, but I have the lights off. A nearby hallway light is on, so the room is not totally dark. Some light-glow exists.

This light grey text on a dark background works fine in this setting with very little electric light in the room.

Autosave should still work, but no message is displayed. I can, however, execute ctrl-p to preview my formatting. And I can hit ctrl-s to force a save.

I can also hit ctrl-h to reduce the number of lines displayed to only five. The five-line display is centered vertically and horizontally on the screen. Margin spacing still exists at the left and right sides.
