Great for GTD

It's not especifically made for GTD but I find it perfect for it because of how easy it is to add items and because I value simplicity.
Any given line can be a project when it has tasks as children, and tasks can have notes as children. Any of these things are added instantly without selecting dates or priorities or contexts like GTD apps.
I move projects to the top of the list and/or color them red and/or open to see its tasks when I want them to show high priority (this is really easy with all the keyboard commands)
I color tasks blue if their context is outside (fortunately I live on just about three contexts)
The shortcuts window is really great as a "trainning mode"
The only downside as a GTD app is having to save the file instead of automatically saving and defaulting to the previously opened list(s) when the app opens again.
Also, a delay before opening parents when dragging lines up and down would be appreciated.

just perfect for certain needs
only nit - author added a keyboard command to the Keyboard Shortcuts window that you can make visible to refer to while you work - he added an item but left the window the same size and now all the text doesn't fit in the fixed-size window. Not a big deal, but...
Anyway, kept that 5th star missing, that and limited customizability and export abilities
Still, great app

I use a different app for list management/GTD, but this app is perfect for a range of tasks - outlining papers, comprehensive grocery lists, brainstorming ideas.
The keyboard shortcuts are great. I _like_ the lack of customizability - you can spend too much time deciding how far you want indents to be, whether you want dots or numbers for sub-items, etc. No decisions here, and that's great.
Export to text works well in my limited experience.
