Does any tool exist out there, where you work with text snippets (without a title for each item, like in BrainStorm), and where you can assign hierarchical categories (ala Zoot’s virtual folders) to those text snippets? And where you can then get the text snippets listed an a textual way under each category (in reality automatically generating an outline). If it also had groups of categories, like MDE Infohandler, it would be great.

This is of course in continuation with previous discussions here - but through our discussions I’ve become more and more aware of, what it really is that I need. I’ve understood, that the way that I work is that I encounter stuff - and get ideas - belonging to many different parts of my model (talkig BrainStorm-language).

Isn’t this what many of us need for writing - a dumping ground for such text snippets - where you didn’t even have to go into the program to add a text snippet, but just added a category, and had the possibility of seeing what you had accumulated so far it in a one pane outliner?

Peter.
