Outliner that saves each article as a separate file?

Anyone know of an Outliner type program that stores each article as a
seperate file. Like TreePad, but instead of saving everything in one
file, each article (the right hand side window) is saved as an
individual (preferably RTF) file?

1. Tau software's Note Pad Lite 2000

Tree style rich editor program. For each of your tree nodes, it stores
individual files. It uses the extension .np, but they are .rtf files.
It talks about some sort of optional compression, but I'd have to run
it and look closely. The other thing that would take me time, its URL...
It might be hard to find. Unless someone here already knows.


2. AM-Notebook Lite

This is not tree style, the freeware version, but it is next closest.
That is, two-paned. Left side, list of notes. Right side, active note
in display. It saves each note with an .rtf extension.

One use of this. If you have an existing directory of .rtf's, copy
notebook.exe, notebook.ini, and english.lng to that same directory,
and it will autoload those as its notes list. Or the reverse, copy
whatever .rtfs into the directory that contains the core program files.

Shortcut methods won't work; you have to copy the full executable. Yet
it's still a nice tool for working with groups of .rtfs, when you like
that pane-list layout.

http://aignes.com/notebook.htm - version 3.1

I also keep around version 1.6. Its exe is 366k instead of 581k. Although
both are compressed. The main advantage of the earlier version is not having
"Buy the Pro!" in its interface. OTOH, the notable disadvantage of ver 1.6
is its not supporting pictures. Not sure of any other features distinctions,
nor intermediary choices between 1.6 and 3.1...


3. Keynote (Pricelessware)

Keynote has good export & import choices. One of those choices is exporting
everything from a tree out to individual .rtfs. And it lets you import
any number of .rtfs you might select. This is a fine program all the way
around. Have you looked over whether that might serve what you want, the
routine use of Keynote's export function?
