Thanks Paul, Liam, Andrew, Kim. For the moment I will use SideKick which allows me to use the outliner software and the SideKick editor. Although I also use Linux, I am a happy Freedos user because I boot from my USB in a second and I am working in two seconds. This does not happen with Linux or with any other OS that I know.
Greetings and thanks again.
