A new, simple, outliner for Mac:

Here’s hoping a trial version is made available.

Thanks for pointing this out. I’ve been playing around with Outlinely for a half hour or so, and have come to the conclusion that this $5 app is better than 90% of the outliners available for Windows (wish this was a Windows app), and is pretty darn good on the Mac. It isn’t full-featured like OmniOutliner, but it is slick and easy to use. It looks like it is still requiring some development, as there is no help file and “show toolbar” and “customize toolbar” selections under the VIEW menu are grayed out and inactive.

My one real complaint is with the keyboard commands (a frequent complaint I have with outliners). To move topics around, you’ve got to use a combination of the bracket symbols with option and/command keys. Although you can indent and outdent with the tab and shift-tab strokes, which is standard.

I just published a quicky review of Outlinely if anyone is interested:

Major update regarding Outlinely. I just discovered that it will not re-open its own files, so stay away for now!
