[This
review was made on the basis of several months’ experience with
late public beta versions of release 10, which have proved solid
enough, although some components of the final feature set are not yet
in place.]
Nota Bene (NB),
generally thought of as a word processor, is actually a remarkably
complete academic information management environment, with a word
processor as its face. Its concept-based synonym searching also makes
it a useful exploratory and preparatory text analysis tool.
Central to the
platform, from that perspective, is Orbis which provides automatic
indexed free form hypertext database searching of any material
(notes, book length texts, field and lab reports, data sets) which
has been written in or imported to NB. [more]
