A wrapped label kept the full 78px it was allowed to wrap at, so the two-word labels of Review and References made every button there 90px wide against 40–70px elsewhere. One- and two-word labels now hug their longest line — a longer one keeps the cap, or it would break into a third line and run out of the band. The split button's arrow follows the narrower label instead of overlapping it, so each half tints only its own surface.
Powerful word processor — just one URL away.
Free · Open Source · Private by Design
EdenText is a web-based, powerful word processor for everything from quick notes to full-length books. No server, no account — processing runs locally and your documents never leave your computer. Just one URL away, or completely offline as a slim browser app — only ~1 MB1 .
Note
EdenText is young, in beta and actively developed — more features are on the way. It is tested — the full suite plus LibreOffice round-trip checks run on every commit — but expect occasional bugs, and keep backups of documents you care about.
