Outliners are great and underrated tools. But after a detailed analysis of Org Mode (and some other tools) I implemented https://github.com/rochus-keller/CrossLine https://github.com/rochus-keller/CrossLine which I'm using every day since ten years.
- dmortin 6y agoYou should write some words about why your tool is better than org if you mention it here. Org gained new features too in the last ten years. E.g. for crosslinking there is org roam: https://github.com/org-roam/org-roam https://github.com/org-roam/org-roam
- Rochus 6y agoI wouldn't say it's "better"; it just has some features which I didn't find in other tools at that time, e.g. translucent cross-links, everything in one fulltext-indexed file, immediate incremental persistence, not speed-down for large outlines, dockable outlines, just to name a few. Didn't have a close look at Org Mode since. EDIT: of course there are many features which also Org Mode has, e.g. extremely efficient to operate by keyboard (for a trained user), multiple outlines, titles, attributes, not wasting screen space with menu bars and the like, just to name a few.
- edgarvaldes 6y agoI agree. Outliners and spaced repetition software are godsends.
- tetris11 6y ago> spaced-repetition software Org-drill is technically good for this, but ask yourself - when do you actually sit down and revise something? At your desk? In public transport? In the toilet? If like me the answer is the last two, then stick with Anki. Much more portable.
