FrancoisMagnan's insight:
Les mind maps sont d'excellents outils pour chercher des idées, jeter un premier plan. Par la suite, Scrivener prend le relais et conviendra mieux pour l'écriture de textes longs. Le format OPML permet d'exporter des mind maps vers Scrivener. En plus des logiciels cités dans ce support Scrivener importera bien aussi des mind maps faites avec le logiciel Ithought (sur Mac) et aussi Freemind, qui est gratuit.

As mentioned in a previous blogpost, I use DEVONthink Pro (DTP) as my Information Management system. Basically, this means that I throw all kinds of information, in all kinds of formats, into DTP for indexing and archiving. Be it blogposts, .pdf articles, Word documents, Excel spreadsheets, Powerpoint presentations or plain text files. DTP does it all. This post won’t cover DTP that in-depth, but rather the proces it is part of when actually producing some kind of writing based on, or including, the information I keep in DTP. And that’s going to introduce yet another Mac app favorite: Scrivener produced by Literature and Latte.

Before I get into this I have to note that for most writing I try to keep things as simple as possible: I compose (using Vim, mostly) almost everything in plain text (using MultiMarkdown (see an example of Markdown and its output), converting to another format using Marked, orScrivener, or something even more geeky like Pandoc. But my Holy Garil of Writing Workflow is to, as seamlessly as possible, move through all four of the funamendal writing stages: BrainstormingOutlining and/or Mind MappingComposing with Scrivener and Multimarkdown (which I am falling in love with)Publishing, as needed, to various formats:MarkdownPDFMS Office or RTFHTML

Scrivener is an app for the process of writing — by which I mean that it is structured to assist you as you play with and tentatively commit yourself to ideas and chunks of text — paragraph-, section- or chapter-level chunks of text — move them around, look for associations between them, identify where you are going and gradually discern a shape in the vague swirl of thoughts you started with. Scrivener helps with outlining, storyboarding, keywords, linking draft text with resources and much more. Having worked with Scrivener for a little over a year I am at a loss to see how you can possibly keep track of a major piece of work, be it a novel or a dissertation, in a standard word-processor. Most serious writers maintain boxes of index cards, cork-boards, white-boards, pieces of coloured wool linking the pictures plastered all over the wall of their study .... Scrivener does all that for you.

Any historian who has been to an archive in the digital era remembers each day as a race to capture as much material as possible in a limited time. The key to keeping this process organized is to keep track of archival location and to file your images with precise location data as soon as possible. Among all the programs that help manage images, I prefer Zotero, a free and open-source research tool available from the Roy Rosenzweig Center for History and New Media at George Mason University. Zotero is best known for capturing bibliographical data, but can also help with note taking and managing research files. While other programs are better for one of these tasks—just notes, or just article PDFs, or just images—Zotero excels as a Swiss Army knife, do-it-almost-all research tool. Here, I will describe how to use Zotero in conjunction with a camera (in my case, an iPhone), image import software (in my case, iPhoto), and a PDF editor

TeXShop est un éditeur de texte Latex dont j’ai déjà parlé. Je l’utilise principalement pour composer le texte de ma thèse. ...si TeXShop permet le repérage dans le document au moyen d’étiquettes, il n’autorise pas (encore) le libre déplacement des parties du document. Par exemple, on ne peut pas intervertir à volonté les deux sous-parties d’un texte. D’où l’intérêt de combiner l’utilisation de TeXShop à celle d’un autre traitement de texte. Scrivener convient parfaitement à cette combinaison. Sur la capture ci-contre, l’interface de Scrivener. À gauche, la partie consacrée au classement des documents.
