Some would call TreeLine an Outliner, others would call it a PIM. TreeLine just stores almost any kind of information.
A tree structure makes it easy to keep things organized. And each node in the tree can contain several fields, forming a mini-database.
The output format for each node can be defined, and the output can be shown on the screen, printed, or exported to html.
