Taking handwritten notes on digital devices

I am writing several thousand words per day. Without a decent keyboard and touch-typing I'd be lost. Handwriting and dictating mean that the sentence has to be finished in my head before I start writi...

Thanks Bill. So: No replacement for Evernote.
Outliner for nonfiction book

Xmind: It's beyond me why they introduced a second mindmapping tool. Why not integrate everything in Xmind Pro?
What appeals to me: They say they developed Xmind Zen from scratch, no old code base. Be...

Outliner for nonfiction book

@Stephen: There seems to be confusion about what you are really looking for. Is it a "simple" outlining tool (such as Inspiration, UV Outliner) or a full-featured writing environment (Word, Scrivener,...
Outliner for nonfiction book

When you ask for a one-pane outliner, I'd also recommend Word 2013 or 2016 for Windows (can't speak about the MacOS version as I don't use it). I wasn't aware of the fact that Word onl...

@Pixelpunker
Thanks for your thoughts, though I disagree with some.
And thanks for broadening my horizon by mentioning the 3 books. Just ordered 2 of them.
So Numbers is now an outliner

Bill, what's so special about the outlining feature in Numbers?
In the screenshot it looks like they use simple folding - you could have done that in Excel for years (in German the Excel command is c...

Thanks nathanb for the explanation.
What I am not sure I really understand: You have a file named (let's say) "outline for sci-fi novel.doc" and reference this file in 3 other places. Then you'd have...
