As you know, Wikis don’t like tabs. I write the model to the clipboard, using two spaces as the indentation level, paste the clipboard to a topic in ConnectedText, and run search and replace, replacing the two spaces with a “:”

It also works with TkOutline (which has been discussed here before). I modified the Startup script by editing the following line:

proc ::treeconvert::treeToAscii {tree {prefix ” 1.\ “} {indentStr \ }} [info body ::treeconvert::treeToAscii]

This adds a space and a “1.” to every level. When you open a file like that in Connectedtext, it has a beautiful, numbered outline, style

1. xxx

2. xxx

1. yyy

2. yyy

3. xxx, etc.

I will ask the developers of Brainstorm whether they will allow “:” as a character for indentation levels.

Hoping this helps,
Manfred
