A useful property of 2-pane PIMs

Chris,

I’m looking to tag the document itself, not individual lines.

Since I’ve posted enough in here, should probably explain for all (it’s a great forum, with lots of good people).

I’m a preacher, and I struggle with keeping sermons organized. For a variety of reasons, I like outlining. (I used ECCO back when it was alive, but just can’t get back into it now).

What I’d love is an outliner/rich-text editor for writing, with an option to chose tags that are keywords for the sermons.

Honestly, the purpose built software for preaching is not that good. I use Inspiration as my outliner, and my filesystem to organize. I just hate have copies of my files all over the place (firmly believe data should be stored once).

I’ve used TreePad (Business ed) in the past, but its aging as well, and too many flavors now. Like I’ve said before, I just can’t seem to like General Knowledge Base (although its got the features I like). And as much as I keep looking at SQLnotes (or whatever its called now) - it’s too steep a learning curve for me (My life is thinking/writing - maybe its too much).

Anyways, my search continues for something that could best be described as WordPad, with Word’s metadata - only easily accessible - built around an outliner.
