Zoho Notebook for Mac out today 1/18/2017

Not an outliner per se, but given that there has been a lot of ongoing discussion about note-taking apps in general (such as Evernote), I am posting: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/notebook-take-not...

OutlineEdit 1.6 12/13/2016

Yes, I wholeheartedly support such independent developers and encourage paying for their software, as I have done. Given that the software costs money, and is now being offered for free, I was merely...

Columns and filtering by columns 11/1/2016

In my experience, both Tinderbox (Mac) and Infoqube (Windows) are quite robust for this sort of thing. (Infoqube has true outline filtering, whereas in TInderbox, an "agent" would collect the filtered...

ZenWriter 40% off one day 9/17/2016

Hyperbole (Emacs package) 9/12/2016
