Is anyone aware of an outliner that has a two-way sync with Evernote? I'm aware of of RightNote, but as far as I can tell, it does not support hoisting/collapsing for outlines created in Evernote and cannot sync the outline-type notes created in RightNote back to Evernote (I do appreciate that I can add hierarchy to the notes within a notebook, but I can achieve the same result by using nested tags in Evernote). I am also aware of Cloud Outliner Pro, but it's limited to iOS and Mac (which makes it not useful to me as I don't own a Mac). Also I'm learning that there seems to be a outline length limit in Outliner Pro so that some outlines I created in Evernote get cutoff mid-way. Of course, if Evernote adds text folding/collapsing feature (akin to what OneNote does), I'd be all set, but I'm not holding my breath as this feature has been requested years ago and Evernote has done nothing to address it. I'd love to just move to OneNote, but it's tagging creation/editing and searching is just infuriating if you have more than a handful of tags, and trying to organize everything in notebooks/sections/pages is too much of a brain damage for me, as it forces a top-down hierarchy that doesn't work for items that can belong across various sections/note books. Also, OneNote search is too Windows 98 to be useful for a large set of data.

Sharknader - You might want to check-out Tusk Tools Treeliner. It is currently in the testing phase and there is an option to be part of the testing group. There is also a failry comprehensive video tutorial that gives a decent overview of the software. Check it out at: http://www.moreproductivenow.com/tusktools_treeliner.html

If you're just looking to sync text, most text editors these days seem to have Evernote plugins. I used the Evernote plugin for Sublime Text for a while. It had some nifty features, for example you could write in Markdown and it would upload to Evernote in rich text and then sync back as Markdown, and of course it had the folding you expect for a text editor with Markdown support these days.

Is it still alive? Looks like development stopped several years ago: http://www.moreproductivenow.com/blog/

Thank you for this, but this looks very similar to RightNote, where you can just organize the Evernote notes into hierarchy and organize them in other various ways. I am looking for basically a text editor with folding text that could sync with Evernote.

Wow that's a blast from the past. I literally laughed out loud when I saw this. (Well, more like a "heh heh" kind of laugh.)
I looked at my gmail to confirm the date: I signed up to be part of this "testing group" in November 2012. I got back a confirmation saying Treeliner is in a "closed beta" and I would be notified when it opened up to more testers. That is the last email in my gmail on the subject and it looks like they are in the same status over five years later.
I agree the video looks awesome. It would be so great if it was more than a video, but I fear this is like one of those perennial flying car videos ("Available to the public this Spring!") that never turn out to be more than wishful thinking.

Just found out one of my top few fave txt editors (with folding) has Evernote & what's more syncs in real-time, shame I don't use Evernote usually.

Tusk Tools Treeliner is still being developed? I thought it had been abandoned a few years ago when cimpany didn't reply to emails.
Concept seemed good, but....
