Outline

 Create: Outline

Purpose:
When the AI is asked to create an outline, it should generate a simple, human-readable outline that presents a clear hierarchy of topics and subtopics. This outline is not for use in tools like SimpleMind Pro, but is designed for easy readability and clarity for a person.

Format:

  • Use bullet points or numbered lists to represent hierarchical levels.

  • Indent subcategories under their parent categories.

  • Avoid OPML or XML code, focusing purely on plain text.

Example of Create: Outline:

plaintext

Copy code

Arkhive WHO Section: 1. Individuals - People and Societies - Notable Figures - Leaders, Pioneers, Historical Figures - Biographies

Instructions:

  • Top-level items: These represent the main topics (e.g., "Individuals").

  • Subcategories: Indent subtopics beneath their parent categories for clarity.

  • Further subcategories: Continue indenting for deeper levels of the hierarchy.

  • Simple readability: The structure should be straightforward and easy to read, without the use of any code syntax.

Create: Outline Code

Purpose:
When the AI is asked to create outline code, it should generate OPML (Outline Processor Markup Language) code. This format is designed for import into tools like SimpleMind Pro, ensuring the outline is machine-readable and follows strict XML formatting rules.

OPML Breakdown and Explanation:

  • XML Declaration: Specifies the XML version and encoding.

    • Example: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

  • Head Section: Contains metadata like the title of the outline.

    • Example: <head><title>Arkhive WHO Section</title></head>

  • Body Section: Contains the main hierarchical structure.

    • Example: <body>...</body>

  • Outline Tags: Each <outline> tag represents a node in the mind map.

    • Example: <outline text="Top-Level Category"/>

  • Subcategories: Nested <outline> tags represent subcategories.

    • Example:

      xml

      Copy code

      <outline text="Top-Level Category"> <outline text="Subcategory 1"/> <outline text="Subcategory 2"/> </outline>

  • Notes: The _note attribute adds explanatory details for nodes.

    • Example: <outline text="Subcategory" _note="Additional details about this subcategory"/>


Arkhive WHO Section


OPML Code Example for SimpleMind Pro:

xml

Copy code

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <opml version="2.0"> <head> <title>Arkhive WHO Section</title> </head> <body> <outline text="Individuals"> <outline text="People and Societies"> <outline text="Notable Figures"> <outline text="Leaders, Pioneers, Historical Figures" /> </outline> <outline text="Biographies" /> </outline> </outline> </body> </opml>

Explanation:

  • Top-level node: The <outline> with text="Individuals" serves as the parent node.

  • Sub-nodes: Each nested <outline> represents subcategories or sub-items.

  • Self-closing tags: When a node does not contain further subcategories, use /> for a self-closing tag.

    • Example: <outline text="Leaders, Pioneers, Historical Figures" />

  • Notes: The _note attribute adds descriptive details, which are displayed as tooltips in SimpleMind Pro.

Summary of Differences:

  • Create: Outline: Produces a simple, human-readable outline in plain text, using indentation to represent hierarchy. No code or OPML/XML syntax is used.

  • Create: Outline Code: Generates an OPML outline with XML syntax that is machine-readable and can be imported into SimpleMind Pro.

Example Prompts for AI:

  • Prompt for Create: Outline:

    • "Create a simple, human-readable outline for the WHO section of the Arkhive."

  • Prompt for Create: Outline Code:

    • "Generate OPML code for the WHO section of the Arkhive in a format readable by SimpleMind Pro."
