As a CT fan I would say this, wouldn’t I, but what would be the advantage of going with any of these wikis vs. a dedicated desktop wiki like ConnectedText (considering that collaboration is not a requirement here)? Although CT doesn’t have a WYSIWYG editor, in exchange you get a lot of flexibility, without having to worry about any of the installation and search issues of the above-mentioned wikis.
