Another route if your stuck on the wiki thing is MoinMoin. I believe that the only real dependency is Python (which includes a webserver) and it uses flat files. I guess I'm still confused about your requirements? Are other people going to be accessing this? For something like a journal (which

Here is the "Linux" desktop application I use.  I know you are looking for a windows based application.  Due to the fact that this application is built upon KDE which is a wrapper around Qt, it may not be too hard to port to Qt and therefore run it under Windows. Tom John M wrote: I'm wonderi
