Starting in 1986, Movie Master became the single most influential formatting software program in Hollywood, used by literally thousands of professional and wanna-be writers to format their screenplays and teleplays, including numerous blockbuster movies and popular television shows (see list of users).

Then the MM sold its code, and the result is StoryCraft's "Hollywood Screenplay Formatter".
