Wiki tool for Windows and Mac?

Thanks for the pointers so far.

@Ike: I tried PmWiki more than a year ago. It was OK on Windows but somehow it was not what I needed (can’t remember exactly what it was that was missing). I’ll give it another try.

MediaWiki might be fine for my needs. I do not necessarily have to use several databases, I can also keep my notes in one file. But the effort required is way beyond what I am prepared to invest - if I go for a pure Windows solution, spending $30 for a CT licence or even $80 for the USB licence will be the easiest way.

@Thomas: Notestudio is no option as development was frozen.

Wikidpad seems to be interesting. I will give it a try. However, it looks like it does not have a Navigator as in CT - i.e. the view that shows the links between the notes. What I have seen so far reminds me of Infoselect (the data repository I use at the moment).

And: No, I was not aware of Wikidpad :-)

@Chris: I am looking for a cross-plattform tool; the ideal solution would be one that can be run from a USB stick both from Windows and Mac.

Again, thanks so far.
