Stephen, I still don’t understand your point that cloning is not only equivalent to a keyword scheme but extends it. Guess I’m from the “show me” state, but it sure isn’t a self-evident truth to me.

If keywords is what I want, I don’t need to take time setting stuff up as clones when I can simply call up an existing keyword list and select the applicable words. Yes, I can create a keyword system using clones, but why would I want to take the time to do what at best is a work-around to compensate for a program not having a dedicated keyword scheme?

In no program on the market is it as easy and efficient to get hierarchial keywords as it is in MDE InfoHandler.

Pray tell, how is UR any less, or any more, ergonomic than ADM?

On what basis do you call MyInfo3 “the purest of knowledge organizers,” when it seems to have less capability than either ADM or InfoHandler? Is it the purest b/c it doesn’t have a calendar? If so, what about the kind of knowledge-oriented and advanced outlining features that you have talked about before here, and which may be found on ADM, InfoHandler, OMEA Pro, etc.?
