Workflowy just entered the transclusion game

Forgot to mention: Backlinks and transclusion are not the same. ConnectedText shows lists of forward links, backlinks and inclusion links (what it includes, and where it is included) as separate lists in the summary pane.

It doesn’t show “unlinked mentions” but it does have a “like this” list where it lists topics deemed to be similar based on topic content. It also has an “Auto Link” feature where it scans the text and adds links to topics that match the text.

All this excitement about Roam is good for getting attention for outliners, but in terms of features ConnectedText already has it covered.
