You may wonder why I condemn all of our current options. None of them are the equal of the venerable, simple minded, task manager that came with the PalmOS in 1994 and was improved with integration into DateBk in the late 1990s. ![]() Neither Things, nor Appigo's ToDo.app (which I have used incessantly since 2008), nor OmniFocus, nor Remember the Milk.app nor Toodledo.app are a great solution. There are still no great task managers for the iPhone. I'm surprised by the conclusion of my recent survey of iPhone/OS X/Web task management solutions. I'll wait and see what the expected 2011 version of Pages will include. ![]() So in this regard it has no advantage over Nisus. Update: iWork doesn't export as HTML at all. Then I'll have a really tough choice - the unreliability of Microsoft Office or the data lock of iWork. Nisus Writer Pro is a wonderful product, but they've been stuck for years when it comes to import/export tools. I had to dump the HTML ouput text into Word 2007 (Windows, more's the pain) and recreate the letter from the source images. PDF export gave me the images, but no hyperlinks. The images were attached in a subfolder, but not referenced in the HTML. When I went to export as HTML however, all I got was text. It did a nice job formatting the letter, it even let me create hyperlinks. Today I tried using NWP to do a yearly solstice letter. It's improved along the way, but import/export remains a real problem. Years later I switched to Nisus Writer Pro. The MacUpdate site also provides user reviews of the software and recommended alternatives for the software.Fleeing Microsoft Word, and wary of proprietary file formats, I started using Nisus Writer Express in 2005. MacUpdate links to the specific product page at the developer's web site, so it is easy to check whether there is a trial download. It is worth checking the links to the MacUpdate site and the developer's web page since a number of Mac apps that are in the Mac App store may have trial versions that you can access using these links. According to the developer's site description, the Express version does not have support for features such as Table of Contents, Indexing, Cross References, Bookmarks, Track Changes, Comments, Watermarks, Export to ePub, and Export to. You can go to the developer's web site and download 15-day free trial versions of both Nisus Writer Pro and Nisus Writer Express to check accessibility and also compare the feature sets for yourself.
