MacJournal 1/11/2018

Thanks for the update, Steve. Although in the macOS journal market MacJournal has been somewhat eclipsed by the relative newcomer Day One, I strongly agree with you that MacJournal is a good product, ...

SheetPlanner 1.0 1/4/2018

From the name of the application and from what you describe as its main features, this sounds as if it is primarily intended as a task and project planning tool. Is that correct?

Happy New Year wishes 1/1/2018

Thank you, Steve, for your hopes for 2018. I write this with a very slightly sore head, so in my case one of your hopes has already been fulfilled! May I wish you the very best for 2018, in return? M...

CRIMPing alert: new app looks fascinating! 12/22/2017

Thanks, Bill. (In passing, I wonder if the developers realise that they've adopted a name that was once well-regarded amongst application purchasers - well at least this application purchaser. Lotus A...

Tap Forms on Sale 12/21/2017

Thanks for the advice, Paul.

Tap Forms on Sale 12/20/2017

Yes, I've just used my copy of Bento to print my Christmas card address labels on High Sierra. It was neat the way that as always it picked up the changes in the last year in Contacts. However... it d...

And thanks, Bill, for the tip about Sorting Thoughts (good name!).

Tagging advice for DEVONThink 12/15/2017

If you need more information, if I remember correctly the book on DevonThink in the Take Control series goes into significant detail on the complexities and potentially unexpected consequences of tagg...

VoodooPad showing signs of life 12/14/2017

I'm pleased to read this news, although like Paul and Lothar I'm very cautious. As I discovered recently when searching for an alternative, the Mac world is not full of desktop wikis that are competit...

Has crowdfunded development ever worked? 12/13/2017

I don't know of any, Paul. I had a similar experience to you with Novamind. I don't plan to repeat the experience - once bitten, etc etc.

Speare word processor 12/6/2017

Ah, the IBM Selectric. What a wonderful machine. I and two friends ran a student magazine from one at university. The Selectric itself was highly prized. If you wanted to bring a rival magazine to its...

Scrivener 3 is on the way… 12/4/2017

As I've written before in this forum, I lost 40,000 words in MS Word about ten years ago. For some reason, the back-up was lost too. It remains probably the worst thing that has happened to me in my c...

Kudos for the Scrivener 3 manual 12/1/2017

The person responsible for most (probably all) of the Scrivener Manual is Ioa Petra'ka, who I think (I could be wrong) used to be an occasional contributor to this forum (and also the much-missed ATPM...

Tell us about your book 11/30/2017

I'm writing a book based on 50 or so years of journalism of different kinds in various locations on the globe - a work of fiction that nonetheless uses characters, ideas and experiences to which I've ...

Scrivener 3 is on the way… 11/21/2017

If it's any help, just to say that I don't see Tinderbox and Scrivener as being particularly interchangeable. Scrivener originally came on to the market as a tool for drafting "long-form" (i.e. >5,000...

What is the oldest application you use? 11/9/2017

I notice that the OP's post and all the responses so far refer to Windows applications. I suppose that there may be at least one reason for that: with Apple's operating systems upgrades now one-yearly...

Current state of iOS/macOS outliners 11/5/2017

And in my view, the absence of clones remains OO's biggest flaw.
