You might consider Treepad Lite (www.treepad.com). It's a tiny, free-form tree-structured notebook/database/text editor. It stores stuff as plain text, so you can easily copy/paste to other software. It's available for Windows and Linux, and it's free --- though more elaborate versions are available as shareware. (No connection, etc. Just a happy, long-term user.) ---JRG > ______________________________________________ > R-help@r-project.org mailing list > https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help > PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html > and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
