Trying to organize a stack of cards and other info for your Setting? I can recommend taking a look at FreeMind, an open-source mind map program. Helped me get started on my Setting. Here is an example of how I've started using it:  This will eventually hold all of the data I need, hopefully in a format I can just nearly copy-paste into the templates. |

What a cool thing! Thanks for sharing, I have a feeling I'll get a lot of use out of this.

Interesting software, don't know if I'll bother to learn how to use it but I downloaded it anyway.

Enter creates a new 'sibling' branch, f.ex. 'Classes' and 'Non-class skills/powers'.
Selecting a node and hitting Tab (atleast on Mac, could also be Insert) creates a new sub branch, a 'child' branch. F.ex. 'Classes' -> 'Templar'. Selecting 'Templar' and hitting Enter again creates a new sibling branch.
You'll notice I've put the Power names and the card text on their own child branch. Reason for this is, it enables me to hide the skill descriptions, but still see all skill names. You can show/hide child branches with Space. An example of this is seen on 'Combat Focus'.
That should be the basic how-to.
