RE: [Fsuk-manchester] Mind Mapping Packages

[Pete Morris]

I use FreeMind extensively and it does the job for me mostly. It's not quite as 
functional as some of the commercial packages out there (MindGenius etc.), but 
does have a few nifty tricks of its own. The PDF export can be a little flaky, 
but for the most part works. However, I'd recommend not using the version in 
the default Ubuntu repositories as it is rather out of date last time I 
checked; instead download the latest "platform independent max" version from:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/freemind/files/
(e.g. freemind-bin-max-0.9.0_RC_4.zip)

If you have Java installed (recommend the latest 1.6 and probably the Sun one 
for maximum compatibility), then it's just a case of unzipping it somewhere and 
running the main binary executable.

Subject: [Fsuk-manchester] Mind Mapping Packages

Can anybody recommend a package for mind mapping? I am aware of Labyrinth, View 
Your Mind, kdissert and Semantik that are available from the Ubuntu 
repositories.

Thanks
Matt
