New unofficial workflowy app
4/22/2016
How is Workflowy "dead in the water"? It does what it's supposed to do, and it's enormously useful to lots of people (myself included) on a day-to-day basis.
There's an unfortunate belief among some ...
Happy 20th Birthday Blackwell Idealist
11/16/2015
I'd love to get a working copy of the set-up file. [bob at bobmclain dot com].
I downloaded the v3 set-up files and manual from a Dropbox link someone posted on your blog, but could not install the s...

Hiero - single-pane outliner for Linux

A shame this isn't for Windows (or also for Windows).
The Perils of CRIMPing
7/10/2015
Don't be put off - it really is a friendly group, and it would have taken less effort - on their part and yours - for someone simply to define "CRIMP" rather than telling you to use the search engine....
Why not name the app?
Ariadne Mail Problems

In case anyone is interested in downloading the freeware 5.20 version of Ariadne, I found it here:
http://www.freewareplanet.net/pim.php
It works fine on Win 7.

The support page is there, but as soon as it loads there's a redirect back to the referrer page. That ...
It took about an hour for them to send my invite. I also mentioned outlinersoftware.com. BoardThing is a great find, and I'm already finding plenty of uses for it.
BoardThing looks nice - too bad it's still in private beta and requires an invite. Hopefully, the wait won't be long.
Mac in Cloud
4/29/2015
Thanks for the good advice. Of course you're right: a Mac Mini hooked up to one of my WIndows monitors makes more sense than renting time on someone else's cloud machine. I'm going to look into that. ...
Mac in Cloud
4/28/2015
I really want to start using some Mac apps, but I'm not ready to splurge on a Mac - yet. So I found:
http://www.macincloud.com
which offers monthly "rentals" of Mac servers in the cloud. I'd be able...
Notetaker defunct?
4/12/2015
Is this the Side-by-Side you're using:
http://sidebyside.sourceforge.net
?
Or is it something (relatively) new, for Windows? I haven't tried it yet, but it could be somewhat helpful when working wi...
Back in the early 1980s, I was publishing my first magazine (about multi-player postal games and the early computer games). I wrote most of the copy on legal pads and typed in submissions and author-s...
Info Select 10: New Version 10.00.106

@Hillman
> But you will find all that by googling anyway. Guess the question rather was rhetorical.
No, it wasn't rhetorical. I know what InfoSelect can do. I even tried it myself, years ago, and did...
Info Select 10: New Version 10.00.106

Why do you recommend it? What things does it do better than everything else?
Mac Envy
2/25/2015
I don't wish to start a religious war, and I mean this question in all sincerity: why are so many top-flight outliners and other types of writing software written exclusively for Mac, and never (with ...
OutlineEdit Beta Program

A shame it's not available for Windows.

Uber-minimalist writing app, but requires Windows 8.1 to run. It doesn't seem to provide anything new; still, it works just fine...
I have a theory.
22111 is not a person. It's a script loaded with random words and phrases and jargon vaguely related to outliners and software. It includes a "rant" function and, of course, the Zeol...

Wayne - thanks for this helpful information. I've used XYplorer for years, but I imagine some here are unfamiliar with it. The XYplorer feature set is so deep that it helps to point out the things it ...
Jaslar - another option for you:

Both Brackets and Atom are "clones" of Sublime Text. I think there are one or two others, but Brackets and Atom are the major players. For me, they'...
I've been using SublimeText (first v2, now v3) for a couple of years. It's an all-purpose workhorse: code (HTML, CSS in my case), blog posts, short articles (in Markdown). I'm in it every day, and I'v...
If you ignore him and his convoluted posts, he tends to go away.
