There are some things on the forum about using different DLLs for the rich text editor in UR, and you can opt to use the Office RTF editor during installation. I haven't had problems pasting images in...
Also, it's not advertised as a feature, but if you search the UR forum you will find a method for editing the stored/captured web/html files in UR. One thing I like about Kinook is that they will offe...
Graham,
You can drag image files directly into the tree in Ultra Recall (they don't necessarily have to be pasted into the RTF text editor to be viewed). Also, look at the forum for some tips on adva...

Thanks, Graham. I will try it out. What version of Opera are you using?

I'm still on the ADM dev list - the last message was posted Jan. 8 and was the one where Eric stated the list would now be moderated.

Data - In & Out

Jan, I'd suggest taking a look at Ultra Recall if you haven't already - there are a lot of options for importing various file types and exporting from the database as well.

Thanks for the ideas, everyone. I do agree that both a preview button and the ability to edit one's own posts would be worthwhile additions. I'll plan on adding them at some point. I'll also look at s...
Plain Text
12/19/2006
Daly, Zoot is plain text in the sense that there is no formatting of text available. However, Zoot does not store its data files in plain text. I seem to remember that it's fairly easy to export out t...
Back to the text file?
12/10/2006
I've gotten to where I don't consider a backup of a program's data files to be a real backup, if those backups aren't plain text, HTML, or PDF. The lifespan of file formats is a real problem. PDF is k...
Quick capture for Mind Manager

Zoot's "Quick Note" (Alt+Z, u) feature is probably the quickest capture method I've seen for jotting down random thoughts. And since you already have Zoot running...

Organizing vs. searching

Jan,
Thanks for the ideas. I was pretty excited about ADM at first, mainly because it functions as a both a real outliner (paragraph text within the topic) as well as a database at the same time. How...

Daly,
Think of Zoot and BrainStorm - two unique programs that have a lot of power for harnessing and working with information. Both are plain text, not WYSIWYG. Unless you work in a field that is hig...
