a freeware, lightweight, hierarchical notepad app. development is (very slowly) ongoing but although the latest version is in late beta the previous version works very well.

pros lightweight free (and open source) regexp searching virtual folders (group any document with a specific keyword) optional encryption versions for windows mobile and (third party) android data saved as a folder/file structure so easy to sync part or all.

cons no markup capability (rtf or html support would be great) although it can open up another program of your choice to handle these.
