Atlantis Word Processor has been on a roll
12/19/2018
"The only thing which keeps Atlantis from being the best word processor available for any platform is the lack of comments. I use it for first drafts but then have to switch for revisions. It’s ...
Hint: UR doesn't have a principal parent, and then secondary parents, but then, the respective table mentions them in a given, chronological order (of time of creation of the parentage, which for the ...

"I’m not saying it’s OK for a developer not to reply to tech support questions, but you get a lot of value for the $39.95, even if you never hear from the developer."
I think he has a poi...
Outliner for nonfiction book

(Oh, and I forgot, the https problem is back again, and, as always, just for outlinersoftware, nowhere else.)
Outliner for nonfiction book
11/24/2018
From the previous post, I conclude there probably is no serious nonfiction book out there which uses 2-digit (sub-) title numbering (which makes it 1...up to 10 in case, 10 being coded as 0); this rea...

(https works fine now, again!)
"Unfortunately, there are a lot of developers of word processers who do not see a need for outlining - Textmaker (part of the German Softmaker Office) is one example."

TheBrain 10 released

Amontillado,
Thank you for this info, which is not in accordance with what that other users (link above) said, but he could have been mistaken. Thus we probably have:

Outliner for nonfiction book
10/28/2018
Speaking of Nota Bene, Papyrus should be mentioned, too. (I don't know either of them personally, but both strive to help with serious writing, but NB seems to do it in some convoluted ways, here and ...
Outliner for nonfiction book
10/28/2018
"the real thing" = to some, only 1-pane outliners are outliners: so what?; German tool: TextMaker/SoftMaker, Word clones: LibreOffice and that Oracle thing, XyWriter spinoff: Nota Bene. (I'm Windows o...
Outliner for nonfiction book

(OT: How about going from https back to http, in order to spare users endless clicking for exceptional permissions, for every single page here? FF-only problem? Persists for a month or so now.)

TheBrain vs Evernote vs Personal Wiki
10/6/2018
Above: "I think they at one point used a version of dtSearch (at least for Windows)" - this is probably being meant as a quality assertion, while in fact,
dtSearch either is an overpriced piece of cr...
Processes not tools

PP's citations:
1) Yeah, when it's in a book, it becomes the Bible; if in a forum, it'd be crap. What they say a), I said it here years ago (its lack of "retrieval helped by spatial positioning" (bo...
Evernote in trouble?

Mr. Korm's citation: "Together, we have built a product that serves over 225 million people around the world who trust us with more than 9 billion notes containing their most important thoughts, ideas...
TheBrain 9 is out of beta

"with contacts in Outlook or other contact database"
That would be realizable on a 1-to-1 base: this specific external db, that specific code in order to access it... if that db in question allowed f...
Why no love for MyBase? My early review:
7/14/2018
Very first sentence of this thread: "I’ve been evaluating the robust Windows knowledge bases (MyInfo, UltraRecall, IQ, MyBase) and MyBase is the one I keep paying more attention to." - then: "Pa...
Ultra Recall search flaws?
7/5/2018
@karel and whomever it may concern in particular
1) I should have added what I mean by "backlinks" with regards to UR.
As asked for in this forum very recently, "backlinks" are indicators on link ta...
Ultra Recall search flaws?

@karel
Re Ultra Recall, MyInfo, RightNote
This was several years ago, so I don't remember; I certainly will have given specifics in the UR forum, without them encountering any interest from the deve...
My fault: Page and paragraph numbers don't need to be leading:
You will have a standardized, common title for any excerpt from a given source.

(Previous para = residual of shortness of text input field and ugly scrolling (no preview).)

b) it can be checked if you just have selected ...

Markdown vs WSYWYG

This thread had been titled correctly by Mr. Coulson, given the specific question he asked in post 1.
