OutWiker 1.7

Ioa, many thanks for your posting and clarification of the concept behind Scapple. Are you planning to port it to Windows as well?

Black Hole Organizer?
11/25/2012
I understand what Stephen Z. means by saying that the program hasn't advanced much in 10 years: there is no way to import or export items (aside copy/paste), no tags, categories are exclusive (i.e. no...

Black Hole Organizer?

I should have added that my starting point is the desktop 90% of the time, so the Android applications, while nice, don't help me much in my usual workflow. But for others things may be the other way ...
