Tkoutline For Linux

Tkoutline is a single pane, cross-platform outline editor. With this editor, information can be structured hierarchically in an outline and outlines can be hyperlinked together to create a web of outlines.

Here are some key features of "Tkoutline":

� Cross-platform: runs anywhere Tcl/Tk runs � Multiple outlines supported using a tabbed notebook interface � Inter-outline hyperlinks using wiki syntax allowing for the creation of a web of outlines. � Hyperlinking to parts of an outline � External URL hyperlink support � Support for bold, italics, underline, and strikethrough formatting � Drag and Drop movement of nodes � "Size" of each collapsed node is displayed � Available as a single file "starpack" distribution (standalone executable), or two file "starkit" distribution. No installation needed. � Relatively small--can fit on a single floppy disk. � Export to ascii, html, xml, opml � Import from indented text, opml � Save subtree, load tree as subtree � Key bindings are externally configurable � Mode-less - i.e. there isn't a separate mode for editing vs. for navigating the outline headlines. � User scriptable.

What's New in This Release:

� Support for glob patterns in inter-outline hyperlinks � Bold, italics, etc. wiki-markup is now preserved when exporting to html � Added increase/decrease expansion level functionality � Added the ability to import an outline from indented text and the ability to import an outline from OPML format � Map levels to html headings - thanks to Laurent Duperval for the idea and code � Magic button functionality � Keyboard traversal of outline tabs � Added button bar code from Scott Gamon � Added ability to edit the preferences file within tkoutline � User defined code in ~/.tkoutlinerc will be sourced on startup � Unit tests are now runnable from within tkoutline � Internal changes � Factored out some generic listitem functionality from the treedisplay functionality � Upgraded to using the new tcllib tree 2.0 API � Completely rewrote the code that manages multiple outlines with a much, much cleaner result � Ctrl-` keybinding is an error on Unix based platforms. � Changed the way the keybinding is specified and added ability to configure this key binding � Fixed bug where the useBulletImages and wikimarkup keywords in the .def file were being ignored � Fixed problem with launching urls containing '&' on Windows NT/XP/2000 (the part after the '&' never made it to the browser) � Fixed export to opml and xml so special XML characters are properly encoded. � Also fixed HTML export so special HTML characters are properly encoded. � Fixed bug where the keybindings in the preference file were being ignored � Fixed error when user cancels load subtree command (bug discovered via Scott Gamon) � Fixed bug with launching a browser on unix when the BROWSER env variable contains not just a command name, but also some command-line arguments.
