Textor는 오직 글쓰기에 집중하는 마크다운 에디터예요. 인광이 번지는 CRT 터미널의 감성을, 그대로 당신의 아이폰에 옮겨 담았어요. ■ CRT 레트로 테마 · 그린·앰버·블랙 — 가우시안 스캔라인, 비네팅, 미세하게 떨리는 화면까지. 진짜 브라운관처럼. · 깜빡이는 블록 커서로 완성되는 터미널 무드. · 효과는 토글로 켜고 끄기 — 취향껏. ■ 오직 글쓰기 화려한 메뉴도, 알림도 없어요. 블루투스 키보드를 연결하면 화면은 사라지고 글자만 남아요. 단축키로 새 글·저장·편집을 손에서 떼지 않고. ■ 마크다운, 당신 방식대로 제목·굵게·인용·목록을 색으로 구분하는 구문 강조. 거슬리면 MD 버튼 하나로 끄고 날것의 텍스트로. ■ 빠른 메모 자동 표시를 켜두면, 앱을 열 때마다 빈 메모가 가장 먼저 떠올라요. 메뉴를 거칠 필요 없이 곧장 쓰기 시작하고, 닫으면 메모 파일 끝에 차곡차곡 쌓여요. 떠오른 생각을 1초도 잃지 않게. ■ 내 글은 내가 지킨다 표준 .md / .txt 파일로
