Dear all,

I just uploaded version 0.55 of zim to the website. This release add
support for numbered lists, adds Markdown as export format (and Copy
As format). Also the index is now sorted naturally (so 10 sorts
below 9) and there is a new plugin to show a table of contents per
page. The search dialog has been fixed so it no longer hangs while
searching, results are now shown incrementally and the search can be
canceled. Fixed bugs with the export dialog, and for case sensitive
rename on windows.

Enjoy!

Jaap


CHANGELOG:

=== 0.55 - Tue 28 Feb 2012 ===
* Numbered lists are now supported
* The index now has natural sorting, so 9 goes before 10
* Added new plugin to show a Table Of Contents per page, and allows
modifying the outline
* Added Markdown (with pandoc extensions) as an export format
* New context menu item move text for refactoring text to a new page
* Tasklist now supports a next: keyword to indicate dependencies,
   and it can hide tasks that are not yet actionable
* Made zim taskbar icons and trayicon overloadable in theme - Andrei
* Fixed behavior of Recent Pages pathbar in cases where part of the
history is dropped
* Fixed behavior of the Search dialog, it no longer hangs and also
allows cancelling the search
* Fixed bug where replacing a word (e.g spell correction) could drop
formatting
* Fixed behavior of case-sensitive rename on a case-insensitive file
system (windows)

Jaap,

Wanted to send out my thanks as well.  I've been through a lot of
outliners/wikis, including Treepad Business, WikidPad, Dokuwiki and
others.  While each of them has some features that I liked a lot, I
find that zim has the best all-around feature set balanced while being
a lightweight, text-based, small footprint application.  I like the
real-time as-you-type rendering, support for namespaces, file
management, and calendar integration and use them daily for personal
and professional workflow.


Same here.

That's why I implemented the Mercurial backend which should be available 
in a future release :)


Jaap, by the way, I did a wrong operation on the related bug - 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/zim/+bug/798531


I changed its status to fix released and can't change it back to in 
progress!

Re: [Zim-wiki] Multi user?

2012-02-29 Thread Damien Accorsi
I believe the use of DVCS is the best way to use zim as a long-term 
wiki. Maybe we should define how it would work; I'm interested in 
upgrading the DVCS plugin in this direction.

Or maybe something like a shared dropbox folder would work.  I'm not
sure how it does conflict resolution, but it's probably better than
nothing and might be more user friendly than a VCS.

Is it possible to leave all files on a server, for example on a

One person can read what another has written just like in Wikipedia?

Those who have a Windows client have their Zim running there and
those
who have a Linux client use the Linux Zim.

Or is that not possible?


Yes and no. Yes you can do it. Make sure to set the shared
notebook toggle in the properties, so each user uses their own
cache folder.

No it won't work well. Zim does not lock files etc. so you will get
constant conflicts when users edit the same page at the same time.

Also you might get performance issues - never tested for this use case.

Current recommendation for multi-user access is to sync with version
control, e.g. Bazaar. This is also available for all platforms,
let's each user change their local copy and then merge  push their
changes. This way you also can deal with tracking who changed what etc.

To make it really user friendly you might need to configure a custom
tool with a script that does the syncing.

Regards,

Jaap

[Zim-wiki] Fwd: Zim Git / Mercurial feature

2012-02-14 Thread Damien Accorsi

 Hi Jaap,

 I'm a zim user and python developer ; I'm interested in developing a
 Mercurial plugin (based on the BZR plugin, it looks not so hard to
 adapt for Mercurial use). I saw that someone is already working on
 the Git support ? Would it be interesting that I work on a Mercurial 
 plugin or it would be best to wait for the git plugin release ?


 What do you think ?

 At least, I want to thank you for the Zim software ;)

 Damien

 p.s : I joined the mailing list as LeBouquetin which is my ID on all
 open source stuff.



Hello all,

Here is an email I originally sent to Jaap... I think the mailing list 
is more appropriate.


Also... there is a bug for Mercurial support - 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/zim/+bug/798531
But none for Git (while it is presented as in progress in the Bounties 
web page)


What do you think, guys ?

Damien
