I have been working on an outline system where each
line of the outline is a separate record.
So far I have been able to represent the outline in a grid
and using an expression to indent the line based on the
indentation level. I have it set up to multi-select similarly
to the Win95 explorer using Ctrl,Shift and the mouse button
in order to allow for copying, pasting, deletion and indentation.
(also works with the keyboard.)

The main problem I have encountered,
is that picture representations are very hard to indent and
using a grid with maybe 4 columns (3 columns for useful
information) and several dynamic colors defined gets to
be somewhat slow at refreshing on a P100.

Some possible solutions to the picture indention prob:
1. Make our own tt font using a font editor.
2. Having every line of the grid a container and then
indenting t
