iWisdom 1.80
iWisdom is a desktop application that will help a user manage a list of quotations or other brief insights. These bits of wisdom can be categorized and sorted. A view is available that will continually rotate from one wisdom item to another at random. Multiple wisdom collections can be maintained. The program can also be used to publish a wisdom collection in HTML.

WHAT'S NEW
Version 1.80:
  • The fields to be entered on the Edit tab have been split into three lower-level tabs: Content, Author, and Work. Only the information on the Content field is required. This change allows all fields to be accessed for data entry without requiring an excessive size for the iWisdom window.
  • Expanded the Category Replace function to allow an existing category to be removed (by leaving the replacement category field blank) and to allow a new category to be added to all items (by leaving the existing category field blank).
  • A new option has been added to the Export function, to allow all items having the specified category to be exported.
  • Added the name of the work's publisher, the city in which the publisher operates, and the pages of the work from which the extract was taken. All of these fields now appear on the new Work tab. With the addition of these fields, enough data is now maintained to generate a bibliography.
  • The Export window has been reformatted, and additional Export formats are now supported. The user may now select between exporting "All Fields" and exporting a Wisdom List. The
  • All Fields option supports formats that contain all fields for each item in a format that can be read by iWisdom or another program, while the Wisdom List option is formatted using HTML, some equivalent markup format, or OPML. Item Scope allows the user to select only the currently selected entry, all items in a selected category, or the entire collection. The available Formats depends on the chosen Field Scope, but now includes Markdown and Textile formats when Wisdom List is selected. Finally, the destination for any of these choices may now be either an output file, or the System Clipboard (allowing the results to be subsequently pasted into another program).
  • When entering the Author(s) for an item, the user is now presented with a list of all authors already part of the collection. A particular author may be entered by scrolling through the list presented, or entering enough letters (either last name first, or first name last) to uniquely identify an entry. Pressing Return/Enter selects an author from the list. Pressing Tab moves to the next field. When selecting an existing author, additional author fields (Info and Author Link) are entered automatically on the new entry, if present on any of the existing entries for the same author.
  • When entering the Source for an item, the user is now presented with a list of all sources already part of the collection. A particular source may be entered by scrolling through the list presented, or entering enough letters to uniquely identify an entry. Pressing Return/Enter selects a source from the list. Pressing Tab moves to the next field. When selecting an existing source, additional source fields are entered automatically on the new item, if present on any of the existing items for the same source.
