I guess it would depend on your particular Mac OS when it comes down to which version to download. Those older versions were always completely FREE.

You can still find older versions of Celtx online for download that work fine. Huge learning curve but you can also incorporate your own structure into it really well. It's like Scrivener for Screenwriters and even Scrivener might be worth looking at for your purposes since it's pretty cheap and does have a screenwriting feature that saves files as Final Draft files. I use Script Studio because I can incorporate my own structure into it easily and effectively. I've used them ALL and they all work just fine.

It also focuses a lot of energy into the aesthetics of how it all looks, having it all look 'clean'. But that one seems to be more focused towards beginners. Honestly I have never looked into whether Fade In can do any of this. Right now we have to calculate that by 'hand' in an Excel spreadsheet. I wrote to them with a suggestion for the final piece of the puzzle on my wishlist: An automated report that calculates how much of a particular writer's work survived in the last version of a screenplay. Final Draft finally (as of a month ago) lets you go back and re-edit previous versions in their version tracker.

Lately I have gotten heavily into script collaborations. But once I started producing and filming stuff, I began using the more advanced features like tagging and reports.
