Scrippets:
One of the major hurdles to discussing and working with screenplays on internet forums is screenplay formatting. Screenplay format isn't just aesthetics, it's a functional format for readers to easily follow along.
Before forum posters would have to use pre-style code and apply time consuming spaces to try to imitate the screenplay format and never with acceptable results. With Scrippets, you can actually recreate the screenplay format easily inside the forum.
This button
will automatically convert plain text Scrippet into easy to read HTML formated script. The Scrippet format is a text format designed by John August to allow writers to input screenplay text in easy-to-write plain text and have it converted to properly formatted HTML.

Instructions:
Scene Headers: These must be all UPPERCASE and start with either INT, EXT, or EST.
Action Blocks: Write these as usual but be sure to put one empty line after the text block so the the plugin can recognize it as an action block.
Character Names: need to be in UPPERCASE.
Character Cues: must be UPPERCASE and in parenthesis (for O.S./V.O.) immediately following the character's name on the same line.
Parentheticals: text must be between parenthesis and right below the Character Name.
Dialogue: must follow immediately below the character name, character cue or parenthetical.
Transitions: must be UPPERCASE and should be followed with a colon, with some hard coded exceptions that don't use colons, such as FADE TO BLACK, FADE OUT and CUT TO BLACK.
That's it. Everything else is done for you!
Here's what it looks like as you type it in.
