NAME
kdissert - A tool for document creation using mindmap trees
SYNOPSIS
kdissert [Qt-options] [KDE-options] [URL]
DESCRIPTION
kdissert is a mindmapping tool for supporting the creation of complex
documents: dissertations, theses, presentations, and reports. It
supports pictures and features several document generators: LaTeX
reports, LaTeX slides (based on Prosper and Beamer), OpenOffice.org
documents, HTML, and plain text.
A mindmap is a multicolored and image centered radial diagram that
represents semantic or other connections between portions of learned
material. For example, it can graphically illustrate the structure of
a thesis outline, a project plan, or the government institutions in a
state. Mindmaps have many applications in personal, family,
educational, and business situations. Possibilities include note-
taking, brainstorming, summarizing, revising and general clarifying of
thoughts.
Though this application shares some similarities with general-purpose
mindmapping tools like FreeMind or Vym, the very first goal of kdissert
is to create general-purpose documents, not mindmaps.
