I am an old Thinktank and More user who got addicted to outlining as an approach to writing and organizing ideas. While emersed in UNIX I relied on emacs/otl format outlining and a home brew perl script that would translate the files into HTML for some very nice documents.

I am now at a PC based shop and trying to use MS Word outlining. They seem to only think of it as a “view” format so after all that work of organizing an outline there doesn’t seem to be any way to PRINT the outline except as a flattened plain text view that has nothing to do with the original outline. Any ideas ? This really has me stumped as I can’t imagine doing serious work without an outliner capability.
