Import Structure

  • CherryTree nodes are converted to Markdown notes.
  • If a CherryTree node contains sub nodes, a folder is created as container. It has the same name as the corresponding note.

Known Limitations

  • Cherrytree checked (☑) and crossed checkboxes (☒) are converted to Markdown checked checkboxes ([x]).
  • Cherrytree latex is converted to a Markdown code block.
  • Some cherrytree elements are not inserted at their original location, but at the end of the note. This is a limitation of cherrytree's export.
  • Cherrytree anchors are not converted.
