I tried to install tines on a couple of virtual Linux machines, but it failed. Do you have plans to package it as a .deb or .rpm? I liked where you're taking it.

If you're like me, and want a console-mode outliner but can't stand
Emacs (I've given it several tries over the years), there's always
Tines. I've not been doing a whole lot with the development lately, but
a couple of community members sent patches to add autoconfig and some UI
improvements; I plan to roll them up, make OPML the default file format,
and release 2.0.
One of Tines's strengths is its support for "text" mode
entries—combined with its Markdown export, you can outline your
headings, scenes, and even snippets of dialog and description, then
import the OPML into Scrivener and get on with the drafting. I like to
think of it as a "writer's outliner." I'm thinking about ways to export
to DITA (a technical writing XML format), but that will come later.
