Hello all, I am a long time lurker on outlinersoftware.com (about 2 years now, dipping in and out for the most part, though for the last few months, most intently) and having read the opinions and experiences of users of this site about the many softwares available for organisation, which I am obsessed with (I could very well be OCPD), I would like to outline ‘lol’ the feature of all features that I would like to see in a notetaker.
I would like to undertake a search on text where all the words in the software database are indexed; that all sentences/paragraphs with instances of the word (eg music, music.genre, &music;, music film etc) searched for are ‘hoisted’ out of their various files into one page. The info on this page can then be ‘copied’ or ‘cut’ and saved as a new file or in an existing file. ‘Copied’ when the info belongs in it’s original file, and ‘cut’ when I am jotting down info on the fly and it accumulates as unfiled notes, as I could quickly remove many sentences/paragraphs at a time from the unfiled mass of notes, and then move this collection to an existing file or create a new file for this info to belong.
If there is a software that currently does this or that has this feature on it’s roadmap then I would appreciate if users here could advise me accordingly.
Thanks.
