Treatise is an sparse interface for reading large
amounts of text. It strips all the formatting
from a document and provides a pure-text view of
the contents. As such, it is suitable for reading
e-books, essays, short stories, novels, and
academic texts. After selecting your desired words
per minute reading speed, putting the program in
full-screen mode, and hitting space to start
playing, you can read your text hands-free and
without distractions.
