The Journal is "persisted", you do not need to Save.
Text can be marked holding down the Shift key - and then Cut (CTRL+X), Copied (CTRL+C) or Pasted (CTRL+V) anywhere on the page.
When in typewriter printing mode (/PRINT parameter), Journal becomes a typewriter, sending output to a connected printer character at a time, as you type. Backspacing will redact, only on the current line. There's no deleting or text manipulation. So thoughtful typing is the goal!
In a virtual machine, this might give undesirable results (and not really provide the experience either). Intention is a real dot matrix printer connected to a real PC's printer port.
You can export your whole journal (everything concatenated into one .TXT file).
Full-screen mode is available for a very focused writing experience, with F11 or the Maximize icon in the titlebar.
You can print the current day with the Print button, or CTRL+P shortcut. Learn more about printing options.
