> It’s been said Zoot! doesn’t involve outlining. Are its vintual folders hierarchical or flat? Are the rules recursive, so they would lend themselves to hierarchical organization?

Zoot allows you to nest virtual folders, but I rarely, if ever do. Others may find this more useful for some processes.

I had to look up the word “recursive” and I still am not quite sure I understand precisely what you mean. However, failure to understand something has never before stopped me from talking about it, so here goes: I believe you can set up a hierarchical system of classifying your information through rules, by assigning an item to a virtual sub-folder if the item also meets the rule that would assign it to the parent-folder, although, I don’t seet he purpose of have sub folders in the context, so maybe I’m missing the essence of your question.
