Over at Digital Inspiration they’ve created a simple Google Docs template that emulates the green-on-black minimalism of early word processors. All you need to do is visit the link below to open the template in Google Docs, hit CTRL+SHIFT+F (to “Fullscreen” Google Docs), and then hit F11 (Fullscreens most web browsers). Two keyboard shortcuts and you’ve got a distraction-free writing space.
If you’re curious to see the coding magic that turns Google Docs into a green-screen terminal, check out the link below to Digital Inspiration. They have a detailed explanation of how they created the template and include instructions on how to alter the template colour scheme to anything you want.
