^Thx for the heads up. :Thmbsup:
Story Light actually looks quite interesting. Gonna have to download it and make some time to check it out. :)

Another interesting program I use is Notebox Disorganizer (free), "a spreadsheet for text".

That looked weird enough that I had to take a look.
Oddly, it kills the i-conized addon for VirtuaWin (a graphical navigator for virtual desktops otherwise created and managed by the latter) stone dead. :( Perhaps if I was doing proper writing in a distraction-free environment, though, I wouldn't want the other 7 desktops with all their lures and temptations so I wouldn't mind -- but a bug that can kill something normally so reliable might do other nasty things too.

Following the link in the quote in oblivion's post I ended up here : Puller.
Now that's an interesting and useful program but which, I'm sure, someone here could rebuild in another way with even more options ... ;)

Reminds me of the way document indices used to be built in WordStar, back in the bad old days... now THERE was a program that could be a fine, visually non-distracting editor. 8)

Sorry I lost track of this thread. I'll try to remember to throw up some of my macros. Mindmapping is good - I use MindManager primarily to outline/move ideas around then export to Word or something similar. I start out with common structures for types of articles and fill in the blanks if I'm really lost.
