An add-on (beta) to turn LibreOffice and OpenOffice into a kind of an outliner (reminds me of that MS Word add-on which used to be around as an alternative to Scrivener to Windows - forgot the name):

Hm. Looks good. Looks like a small-scale Scrivener replacement.
I just installed it. LO crashed before I could restart it. After starting LO, I couldn’t find the extension. Extension Manager said, it’s installed. Tried to remove and reinstall ist - no reaction.
Got the latest version of LO, installed it. Can’t find Organon, can’t remove the half-installed extension. :-(

Too bad. It’s still beta though, so hopefully it will improve. I remember now, it reminded me of “Writing Outliner” (that’s the trouble with such generic names, easy to forget).

Correction: The file I had downloaded was truncated. Downloaded again - now it’s working.
Too bad, I don’t have the time to test it right now.
