Opal

Opal is an outliner. It lets you organize just about anything -- ideas, reports, lists, notes, projects, graphics -- as an outline. It stands out for its uncluttered, fluid interface. But Opal includes features not found in other organizers:

• Shrink a topic to a single line
• Alphabetic and numeric sorting
• Magnify on-screen text
• Word count
• Focus on part of the outline
• Multiple selection
• Link to other documents
• Just create notes -- no need to name them
• Open Acta outlines
• Spotlight search
• Topic filtering via toolbar Search field
• Smart checkboxes automatically track completion
• Open or save OPML outlines
• "Smart quotes"
• Complete, self-contained documentation

What is new in this release:

• Added animation to Preferences
• Support "sudden termination" in Snow Leopard for faster quitting
• Added "A Sharp on Facebook" to Help menu
• Removed some unused code
• Switched to new clang compiler
• New eSellerate libraries
• Fixed small memory leaks in Copy, Replace, printing, popup menus (thanks to Snow Leopard's developer tools)
• Better handling of entity-encoded characters in OPML [4640]
