Tinderbox vs. The Brain

Dear All,
I have not used MORE for a while, so I am sorry if I am expressing myself differently because I am mixing up the functionality of MORE and HyperCard in my head.

The only thing I can say is that in the 80’s there was a great tool for putting ideas together.
I was a fan of HyperCard, as well as MORE, and it fitted in perfectly with my habit of organising things on cards.
At the time there was no Japanese translation of the HyperCard manual, so I had to wade through a thick English manual every day.
It was a big book, about 3.5 inches thick.

Let’s talk a bit about MORE.
The functionality is similar to the ConceptdrawMINDMAP.app that is currently available. At the time, the idea of an Idea Processor was quite a novelty. You write down your ideas in a square. Of course, this square can be transformed into any other shape. The rest is the same as in Tinderbox, where you can point the arrow of a link in any direction you want. Each link can be displayed as a Gantt chart or as a slide show in a presentation.
Of course, you can also print them out as individual documents.
I have not grasped the full functionality of Tinderbox yet!

I still do not understand how to handle it.

I remember that I was able to use the MORE functions of the slide show almost as well as the functions of the current ConceptdrawMINDMAP.app.
As for the tree structure, I was able to change the whole tree backwards with a single click.

Thanks to the presentation features of More, I was able to use
