As someone who probably writes a 3000-10000 report on average once a
fortnight and as an ex editor of a professional journal and as a TW
user I am going to add my 10c worth.

Firstly no editor would ever except a TW as manuscript. Most editors
want everything in simple plain text so that they can format the text
themselves rather than have to deal with odd bits of formatting code
causing problems in the production phase (this used to occur allot
with programs such as Ventura and with people who use Tabs to align
text).

Secondly, I am not sure anything that I read on line is in actual fact
a book. To me a book had pages, is portable and can be read in places
such where there is no electric power.

Thirdly, where I find TW useful, in fact almost indispensable, is in
doing the research and the organising my thinking (both linear and non-
linear). The hyper-linking and tagging are great. I wish TW was a
little less clunky with images such as photos, maps and plans. It
would be good to be able to add video as well.

I am mainly using Morris Gray's modification of No Brainer notes in
its c2008 incarnation with some TWeaks and a more cheery colour
scheme.
