[Zim-wiki] Screencast about zim
Hi. How do you explain zim other people? I've found zim late in 2013. After a short test phase and personal approval my personal knowledge management has completely migrated to zim quickly and improved this topic from start a lot.Now zim is known to and applied by quite a few of my work mates. It has been recognized to be useful for a shared knowledge base in a team. Knowledge may be handled in a distributed version control system (e.g. git) the same way as the software itself. This way the originally two conflicting aspects of 1) a local Desktop Wiki and 2) distributed synchronizationare in complete harmony with each other. Now, to repeatedly explain zim is time consuming. And, because I'm willing to create screencasts for customer support and training I decided to take zim for an exercise to create my very first video tutorial. The result is uploaded to YouTube and you may find it here: About zim, a Desktop Wiki; Part 1/3: Highlights https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embeddedv=hj21z5SLzgw About zim, a Desktop Wiki; Part 2/3: Basics https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embeddedv=L_vFqzoQYvI About zim, a Desktop Wiki; Part 3/3: Advanced https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embeddedv=jFF4p8lQsfA I hope you find it useful.

[Zim-wiki] New Plugin: Text2Tag
Dear all, I'm about to release a new plugin which helps formatting text to tags. The idea to this plugin was born out of the need that whenever I have a meeting with a large number of participants, it was quite an effort to add all participants as tags (people tag) into my meeting notes, even by using my auto completion plugin ;) Usually, I open the MS Outlook invitation, switch to scheduling assistant and then copy the list of all attendees into the zim page. Then I get such a list: Güven, Ugur Murat;Doe, John;Doe, Jane; and many more; As my people tags have this pattern @LastnameFirstname I was able to do a quick hack by using the linesorting plugin (thanks to Norfcran for the plugin), which worked quite ok. As you can see, even my full name does not fit into that pattern, as I have a middle name ;). In addition, some entries had additional information in brackets next to the name - Doe, John (Whatever). Then I thought: 'What if others have other data, where the delimiter is not semicolon?' Long story short: · You are able to select the delimiter · Set the source and the destination pattern · Set filters to remove anything from the tags · compare the data with existing tags and select similar instead The current implementation allows this: Source pattern: %Ln%, %Fn%, %Mn% (- free to use any delimiter, free to use any text in between %%, pattern needs to reflect the source data's pattern) Target pattern: %Ln%%Fn% (- free to use order, free to use any delimiter which Zim allows, text used between %% needs to be the same as in source pattern) As I'm in the final stage, I'd like to know what the pattern of your tags look like? Will this implementation fit to your pattern of tags?

[Zim-wiki] Custom tool: whiteboard cleaner
Hi, just want to share this with you... When I have a meeting I like to draw on the whiteboard and take a photo from the board. And of course I add this picture into Zim for documentation :) I stumbled into this: https://gist.github.com/lelandbatey/8677901 My Zim implementation: · I installed ImageMagick to c:\Tools\ImageMagick · Added C:\Tools\ImageMagick\ to PATH · Created this batch file wbclean.bat mkdir %1\tmp_dir cd %1 FOR %%A IN (*.jpg *.gif *.png) DO ( copy %%A tmp_dir ) FOR %%A IN (*.jpg *.gif *.png) DO ( rename %%A orig_%%A ) cd %1\tmp_dir FOR %%A IN (*.jpg *.gif *.png) DO ( convert %%A -morphology Convolve DoG:15,100,0 -negate -normalize -channel RBG -level 60%%,91%%,0.1 -resize 50%% %%A ) copy *.* %1\*.* cd %1 del /q /s /f %1\tmp_dir rmdir %1\tmp_dir · Created a custom tool entry o Name: Convert Images 50% o Command: C:\Tools\ImageMagick\wbclean.bat %d When you start this custom tool on your note with a picture, it converts the picture and resizes it (original picture is backed up).
