--- Comment #199 from [email protected] ---
I see that there is at least one comment arguing against outliner
functionality.  My assumption is that its author has simply never used
Microsoft Word's outline view functionality, or has only used it for a few
moments.  As a person who was actually part of the beta test for the original
Microsoft Word (yes, I mean the version that pre-dates Windows), and as a
person who has used the Word outliner on almost a daily basis for close to 20
years, I can assure you that there is nothing else like it.  "Mind mapping" is
not the same thing at all.
I have tried OpenOffice and LibreOffice.  I have looked for products that do
what Word does.  Every few years I have made a thorough search.  I have never
found a substitute.  And that's why I am still a Word user.
I don't use ANY other functionality of Word which is not duplicated in
OpenOffice.    If OpenOffice had an outliner to simply do what Word does, I
wouldn't need Word, and I wouldn't even need Windows.
