It's not Public Domain or Shareware, but it is cheap (~40). It's called
Acta, and it's a DA based outliner. It's replaced both my notepad and my
scrapbook (since I can have it open up a default Outline and cut/paste text
and pictures into it....) as well as doing lots of other things for me.
You may be saying "I don't need an outliner" -- I find I don't use it much
for outlining at all! Instead, I use it to keep track all those little
pieces of information, text, graphics, addresses, notes, thoughts, plots,
etc, etc, that used to get lost instead. You set up a default outline and
build a series of major topics for each thing you want to keep track of.
Bring up Acta, a mouse click, and it's there.
