Well, one of the good things about a wiki (or wiki-like application) is that you do not have to create “hundreds” of files. Just three or four are enough, and you can interlink central concepts to whatever degree you want (or need).

I’ve been using it religiously almost since it first came out. My biggest file has 4754 entries (mostly fairly short, but some longer) and about 4800 revisions. It’s 9.63 MB large. It’s about as close to text as I want to get.

The application has never crashed. I would now find it very difficult to conduct my research without it. However, I am paranoid enough to worry about what would happen if it did.

Exporting the file to HTML is easy and fast. I do it regularly. So, I don’t really see the problem.

The newest version adds a “clipboard catcher” with various options that is at least as good as Ecco’s shooter or the Zooter. It even translates HTML into Wiki markup.

And no, I have no commercial interest in the program
