OmniOutliner is great, but it’s too itchy for me. That is, there’re too many things I want it to do, but it’s not open enough for me to extend. Unless I’m just missing some grand API to make it work (other than maybe some AppleScripting). So, mine won’t be nearly a pretty as OmniOutliner at first, since I found out I’ll need to completely re-implement the outline widget itself to get something simple like variable-height rows. But I’ve already got import/export plugins for 5 different outline formats in the works, and playing around with different plugins to customize the information presented, as well as a stab at a mind map view.
And I’d love to be able to edit UserTalk scripts for use with Radio 8 with it :)
