@Grey - works; thank you! The last dependencies downloaded for a very long time ― maybe that's why they failed to download in the process. It definitely belongs in Documents; I have countless text there. Amazing program; it was like replacing my car with the space-ship from Flight of the Navigator.

Yes, cherrytree is pretty good. And lately, people on the forum remember a lot of cool films from the 80s and 90s :)

He's in Bionic64.

With the Linux version on BionicPup ― it would crash when doing search-and-replace-all.

I'm on FossaPup; "it would crash".

Dump /root/.wine AGAIN!

After you unpack, symlink and set the run action for exe files, click Cherrytree and let Wine create its working directory, /root/.wine.

Be PATIENT! WAIT for the Mono installer window -- hit Cancel!

Be PATIENT! It will eventually surface the Cherrytree installer dialog.

Continue with PATIENCE!

It's been about an hour since I clicked on cherrytree...exe ― and after Wine created /root/.wine folder - nothing else happened.

At this point I feel your best shot at getting Wine to run your Windows apps is right here. Your questions can then be fielded by Grey.

Alright; I can use Emule; and got CherryTree on Puppy; so enough for now.
Thank you all.
