Plain text files and Treepad files can be imported. * Mozilla and XBEL format bookmark files can be imported and exported. * Generic XML files can be imported and exported, allowing TreeLine to function as a crude XML editor. * ODF text documents can be imported and exported as outlines. * Batch file conversions can be done from a command line interface. Caveat: haven't tried it,don't know how well it handles tree structure etc. Dave -- Registered Linux user # 444770

Smoothwall, GeeXboX, FreeNAS, Private > Cloud and the odd distro or two is the direction I'm heading. That is more or less how I started out as well. I began with Ubuntu (5.10) as my first full-time foray into Linux. After growing comfortable with "how things worked" I started looking at other distros. I eventually ended up with Arch where I have been for the last three or four years. One of the nice things with Linux is that there is probably a distro out there suited to every individual. Meaning that each person can find a distro suited to their individual needs or wants. And if there isn't, then there are systems like Arch, Gentoo, LFS and others that allow you to "roll your own." > If your able to maintain your output for another two hundred and fifty, > or so, issues, I may be in a position to help you with future > publications, such as: Down and Dirty with the Top Ten Terminal Servers > - and - Selecting The Best Tools for Controlling Processor Bounce in > Multi-Cored UNIX/Linux Cluster Farms. :) lol I have at least two more coming down the pipe. Probably another after those two as I would like to do one on text editors, but I fear it would be 8 volumes long as there are so many, and I don't really want to start another vi VS emacs war in this newsgroup. There seems to be enough hostility here without inviting a holy war :-) -- If you try, you can envision peas on earth.

I lurk about and have seen full blown wars about things I can only describe as; the difference between blue and blue.
