Franz,
Open Office always looks attractive, whenever I give it a try, but I didn’t think it had any outlining tools, I am obviously mistaken.
I come across tinderbox every so often, and will crtainly try it out once a Windows version appears.
I used Infoselect since version 1 for Windows, but drifted away from it as it seemed to become more complex, a very disappinting and costly purchase of the Palm version and what seemed to be upgrades that offered me a couple of important new features and lots of others that I didn’t really want. However, you may wait a long time for an RTF enabled Zoot :-(
But as you may nhave seen elsewhere, I get around the formatting issue by simply linking the files to Zoot, Zoot shows the first 32k of the text and then I open the file with its native program if I want to read it. In the end I found the speed that Zoot could automatically manage files, made up for this slight inconvenience. It was a lot more convenient than importing files into AskSam and Infoselect. None the less I still look forward to RTF in Zoot.
