I love outliners. I still use MORE and I have used Acta. But I am a teacher, and my most frequently used function for an Outliner is to develop extensive class notes (with footnotes) and for developing Multiple Choice tests. Therefore, the most efficient outliner type for me is one that combines the terrific outline features of MORE/Acta with the features of a word processor, including footnoting. That was the genius of FullWrite. Unlike MS Word, they did outlining the right way. But, when FullWrite was revived a few years back, they never made it PowerPC native and then it seems to have withered and died again. Now, with all these class notes and all these tests in FullWrite format, Is there anything similar I can turn to?

I've actually gotten pretty comfortable with the outliner capabilities in Microsoft Word, versions 5-6 and 98. Although I usually take notes with In Control.

In Word, you can alter the styles of each level of heading to suit your needs, and there are keystrokes to move items around. I used to use Mindwrite, but it, too, no longer works on modern Macs. - Richard
