I'm sorry to hear that you got brain damage from a heart attack. My damage came from a hemorrhage. Although strokes affect each person differently, it is great to find a person who knows where I am coming from. :)
I had never heard of NoteCase Pro. Thank you so much for introducing this software to me. I have already installed it and will give it a try. Thanks again!
I have already tried Zotero. Do you use Zotero in combination with NoteCase Pro? How do you use them?

Darren, re your disability with short-term memory, I've walked that path
as the result of a heart attack that did some brain damage.
You might check out Zotero. https://www.zotero.org/
It's not a full-featured research assistant, but I found using the
NoteCase Pro outliner of incredible assistance in working around my
short-term memory loss. https://www.notecasepro.com/
The ability to quickly create lists and then move nodes around within
hierarchical structures is super useful for the memory-impaired when
developing plans. Plus it exports and imports and wide variety of file
formats. Because it can be launched with a command line that instructs
the program to execute a script that can export a result, it can be
incorporated in a workflow with other apps. It's available for MacOS,
the other major operating systems, and Android, but not for iOS, if that
matters.
It's incredibly extensible, with the embedded Lua script interpreter,
374 methods exported to Lua, 3 embedded Lua programming libraries, and
35 scriptable event triggers. Plus scripts can be stored in plain text
files, NoteCase Pro documents, AutoReplace templates, or plugins
(NoteCase Pro documents with some mandatory metadata). I've written
circa 600 scripts for it so far. I know of no other outliner that is so
extensible. If you are of a bent to write scripts, you'd probably find
the program very useful.
