Not much, but then my writing is mainly non-academic. However, I use a lot of references in my work, often needing to fait...
I believe there are some additional solutions, if you don't necessarily need the same piece of software in both platforms, but are happy with compatible files. The first that springs to mind is the co...
Outline within outliner?
9/16/2011
If I understood correctly, the concept is to _also_ maintain the overview provided by the tree pane.
Outline within outliner?

Steve,
Another impressive performance from Noteliner; the concept of 'pages' seems indeed to make sense.
NoteTab for note-taking
9/15/2011
Clarification: The main feature I require (and found in Textpad and Juffedit) is 'save session' so that I can keep my text files in groups.

Looking for a similar program for Linux, I found Juffed http://juffed.com/en/index.html which also works in Windows. The main feature I require is 'save session' so that I can keep my text files in gr...

Glen,
A question only partly linked to MyBase: I'm surprised that as an academic you have not turned to more specialised software which would support footnotes and the like. Have you tried them and ...
PageFour on Bitsdujour today
9/15/2011
I've bought PageFour in a previous promotion. I found it a comfortable writing environment, but not ideal for my kind of writing --using many references etc.
One thing to note however is that develo...
PageFour on Bitsdujour today
9/15/2011
For anybody who's missed it: apparently PageFour will stay at BdJ as a 'special offer' at 40% discount ($23.97 to pay) for an extended period. The link remains the same.
"Circle" mapping tool ?
9/13/2011
And there is also Crystal Mapping http://www.crystalmapping.com/ which you can now apparently add to ConceptDraw tools.

Mark, thanks for the heads-up in EmEditor outline plug-in. This is powerful stuff.
Bill, you might want to try an intermediate solution like Textpad, one of the many text editors I am currently playi...
NoteTab for note-taking
9/11/2011
Bill, just wondering whether you had the opportunity to try out Notetab the way you were considering. I'm looking into text editors within the context of the Cyborganize workflow.

You can do this in Sense as well. Double clicking in any title in the Edit Workspace (the right --detail- pane) will expand/collapse the metatext, leaving just the title visible.
You can also complet...
Holy grail or holy grails?
9/10/2011
These days, rather overwhelmed with both the quantity and diversity of things I am trying to do, I found myself working with various kinds of information in different programs. By 'kinds' I don't nece...
about outlining ...
9/10/2011
Steve,
I agree about the need to view flowing text as a continuous whole. At the same time, I like the kind of bird's eye view that the navigation tree of a 2-pane outliner gives me. I am hopeful tha...
What's the state of the art?
9/10/2011
I believe that, like most maturing technologies, the outlining approach advances and expands its user base through three main areas or levels of application:
1. Basic functionality: integration, in a...

Wojciech and others, many many thanks; I see that 12 people have signed up until now via my link, with 27 in total clicking it!
I think this shows both the activity and solidarity of this forum; I su...

Beenokle, the developer of minimalist word processor ZenWriter http://www.beenokle.com/zenwriter.html have announced a new GTD app called Elements. Though I find the marketing rather hyped "one of the...
Noteliner 3.2 update
9/7/2011
I am very impressed by this little gem; thanks for the heads up. And, Sam Hawksworth, thanks for your work and generosity.
If there's one thing I would like from Noteliner, it's some kind of hierarch...

Ken,
Before I switched to Android, I used GooSync http://www.goosync.com/ with my Nokia phone and was very happy with it.
Your use of the calendar seems more sophisticated than mine, i.e. I don't r...

I'm not on iOS or Mac, but I've been using Google Calendar as the sync hub for my devices (Android and PC) for quite some time with no problems. Is there a particular issue that you've encountered?

CRPA1.8 beta testing

Sounds fascinating, but I was thinking along rather simpler lines: already notes can be sorted chronologically or alphabetically, so I assume you saw some usefulness to these orders. What if notes cou...
