need outlining program

[Judy]

Hi all,
Am interested in a text editor that provides outlining capability.
What I need is an application that provides a hierarchical structure
(1,a,i, etc.) and that allows the movement of blocks of text by
dragging and not without cutting and pasting.

Any suggestions?

TIA.

Keynote is a flexible, multi-featured tabbed notebook, based on Windows
standard RichEdit control. It's always accessible with a single
keypress, even if you work in another application.

The basic idea in KeyNote is that you can include many separate notes
within a single file. This means that you do not need to open several
files - for most purposes it is enough to create only one file and hold
all your notes inside it. With the addition of the tree-type notes, you
now have a three-dimensional notebook: many notes within one file and a
multi-level, nested pages within a single note. Optionally, KeyNote can
encrypt your data securely using the Blowfish or Idea algorithms.
Keynote's interface and behavior are extremely configurable.

KeyNote was written to overcome major limitations in other popular
information managers, both free and shareware. KeyNote is the only
information manager that offers a combination of simple and tree-type
notes, rich text editor, ability to mix freely many notes of different
types in a single file and secure encryption. This makes KeyNote the
most flexible and one of the most powerful applications of this kind
currently available. Some functions, such as "virtual nodes", per-file
configuration settings, multiple backups or WordWeb integration are
unique and, to my knowledge, not supported by any other notebook
program, freeware or shareware.

With powerful text formatting capabilities, easily navigable interface
and additional features such as styles, macros, plugins, and templates,
KeyNote is has become the favorite note keeper, diary, outliner,
knowledge base and information manager for thousands of users.

Build outlines with 11 levels of hierarchy. It supports storing data on
external memory cards - including awareness of multiple memory card
(useful if you have a RAM disk or a device that can mount more than one
physical card.) Outlines can be exported as a memo or to a memory card
file with HTML tagging.

Read the question again, and read it well. Then ask yourself, what did
he mean? Then ask yourself, why did I give the answer I gave? Then
quietly withdraw from usenet for a while. ;-)

This is the best outliner text editor I have found.
It has lots of features like hyperlinking within and without outlines,
file format is very open and easy to decode, outlines are saved as text
files with some extra parenthesis signs.

Outlines can be exported to html, so it works as a simple html/xml
editor too. It also exports as clean text files, or opml, which is a
html variant.

It imports text files, and respects the formatting already there.

The programmer responds to questions and listens to suggestions for the
furure development, and there are other versions of the same program by
other programmers.

The screenshots are not good, the program itself looks better, after
you have set it to your favorite fonts and colors.
