I pretty much have to choose writing software based on whether they let me disable blinking cursors: Textedit, Bean, NeoOffice, and LibreOffice NBC instead of LibreOffice Standard.

I don't know what Evernote would help with, or whether it would let me disable blinking cursors.

I know Scrivener tries to bring all the relevant files into its project folder. I try to use Calibre to organize sources, so Scrivener seems redundant for this.

I also tried Scrivener a while ago... I really don't like save-on-quit.

I mainly have trouble keeping track of (1) in my work, which sections I've done, which ones I need to update, which ones I haven't done, and (2) in my sources, which ones are actually relevant for any given section.
