I'm a longtime MORE user (also PCOutline and ThinkTank), that has just
discovered this list. So pardon me if I'm going over old ground, but the
main thing that I miss between MORE and OmniOutliner is MORE's ability to
add numbers to the outlines, especially the "Harvard" numbering system:
I
A
1.
a.
etc.
Such numbering is practically essential when navigating through big
outlines, especially if they've been printed out. It would be a great
addition to OmniOutliner.
Also, as far as the recent discussion over the return key, I may be in
the minority, but I greatly prefer the MORE approach in which hitting
return adds a new item wherever the cursor is. In fact, on the rare
occasions when I've tried "outliners," in word processors, such as the
one in Word, this is the missing MORE feature that I first noticed.
Command-return or option-return seems like a better approach for splitting
the entry at the cursor.
