Hi
I can’t seem to search the old archives of this group so I don’t know if this has been mentioned before. Apologies if I am just rehashing.
Anyway.
I used/worked with the tools Neil larson created including Maxthink, Hyperrez and Houdini. I found Maxthink very useful as it was software with “a point of view”/“attitude” take it or leave it.
If the Windows version ever gets going well (or if it had been written as an add-in for [or allowed back and forward co-operation with] Word) then I would definitely use it still.
I think this is what drove out the old outliners incidentally.
Similarly Houdini had a great concept but it wasn’t quite there. A Windows version that included a graphical view would have been awesome. If I was a CS student looking for a project (ie 25 years younger) then it would be a great thing to do.
Just some thoughts. :=>
Best Regards
Richard
