I've used various versions of Treepad for years under Windows. I started with their freeware lite version, but moved on to the Business edition because it offered more features. The most important feature is the ability to password protect/encrypt files. Some of the data I organize in Treepad is sensitive and needs to be protected. There's no Treepad Business for Linux, only Treepad Lite. However, the Business edition runs perfectly under WINE.
Enter CherryTree. Unlike Treepad Biz, CherryTree is a native Linux application. Turns out it has many of the same features as Treepad Biz such as the ability to put an image into a document, various formatting, and, most importantly, the ability to password protect files. And I can import my Treepad files over if I save them first as Treepad Lite files. That's a little less than ideal, but the new CherryTree file could be password protected.
Is there any way to find out how secure the encryption is in Treepad Biz versus CherryTree? Since both programs run well, the security seems to be the deciding factor if I can find a way to determine which one is best in that respect.
