[Zim-wiki] [Bug 569091] Re: [win] cannot open another notebook
Problem seems to have been solved! Not sure exactly what solved it -- maybe I fixed a build script earlier, or maybe it's because some of the libraries I used to build today are only weeks old releases. I verify that gspawn-win32-helper.exe ends up in my build folder, and when I install and run the final package, I am able to open two notebooks using File - Open. ** Changed in: zim Status: Confirmed = Fix Released -- [win] cannot open another notebook https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/569091 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Zim, which is a bug assignee. Status in Zim desktop wiki: Fix Released Bug description: When trying to open another Notebook and selecting one from the list or creating a new one, pressing OK only closes the selection dialog, but Zim does not open the notebook; it stays on the old notebook.

Re: [Zim-wiki] softnote2005 to zim
(Sending again... I'm ALWAYS forgetting to reply-to-all and include the mailing list address!) I think you mean to say that when you paste from the clipboard, the rich text formatting from SoftNote2005 is lost. This is normal behavior. Unfortunately at this time, Zim doesn't have any capability to read rich text from the clipboard and convert it to Zim format. Your best bet is to go over the page and look for errors after pasting it. If you have the skills, you could try your hand at writing a filter to convert SoftNote2005's data file format to Zim's.

Re: [Zim-wiki] how to get the gnome-do Zim plugin to work
The video doesn't give a canonical source for the Gnome DO plugin, but this page seems to be it: http://www.devilx.net/project/gnome-do-plugins/ The source code archive you find there dates back to 2008, which is before the Jaap rewrote Zim as a Python app instead of Perl. The plugin needs to be updated for the 0.4x series of Zim. Any takers? Gnome DO looks like it's based on Mono and C#. (I'm not interested, sorry.) At a glance, I see that the plugin is reading Zim's config file, and it may be having trouble parsing it because I think the format has changed a little since Zim 0.2x.

Re: [Zim-wiki] Tasklist to show automatically on system start
Peter, sorry no one got back to you in November. Jaap (lead developer) was away most of the month and no one else (including myself) took an interest in your question; we'll try to do better in the future. What you want to do is launch Zim if it's not already running and then send the show_task_list message to the tasklist plugin. I don't see any obvious way to do that; I couldn't do it with the --plugin command line option. Jaap, is there any way to send commands to Zim via Dbus or something like that?

There's a similar app called *kupfer* that is python+gtk, already with a zim plugin, but I don't remember if it worked or not. I've used both gnome-do and kupfer, and both are too slow to be useful in my netbook.

Re: [Zim-wiki] Is pagelist support a part of future plan?
On Tue, Nov 30, 2010 at 12:30 AM, Joon Ro joonp...@gmail.com wrote: Exactly. So for example in ConnectedText, I can put categories to pages with [[$CATEGORY: Project]]. Then, in another page, I can dynamically generate the list of pages with category Project with the following: [[$ASK:[$Category Project]|Index]]. I think most php wiki programs such as Mediawiki, Dokuwiki, and pmwiki have this functionality. One example is dokuwiki's pagelist plugin: http://www.dokuwiki.org/plugin:pagelist With this, I don't have to constantly update the project list in the example project list. The tag functionality Fabian is working on should get you most of what you are looking for. The difference is that the pages will still be shown in the side pane as an index sorted by tags, not in a special page. Having special pages is the way most online wikis do things, but in a GUI program like zim having a separate widget in the interface is a nicer solution. However if you really want the list in a page as content we can think of a plugin doing that once the tag functionality is available.

We can make it work using the --plugin option, just need to add a main routine to the plugin module. Currently no DBus support although I keep meaning to do that at some point. Notel you need to define entry points for DBus callable methods, so still need to define a special function for this - same as for making --plugin working.

[Zim-wiki] question about attachments folder(?)
Hi I'd like to know how to define a folder that works as the repository for all my externally linked files which would be linked relatively to the notebook root directory. Then I'd like also to export to HTML the whole wiki and then copy the repository folder while keeping the file tree hierarchy such that those links to the external files still work in the HTML pages. I know this might have something to do with the Attachments Folder functionality but I don't really understand it, so I'm sorry if it already does what I'm discussing here. So, could someone clarify how to this? I bet this is an already implemented feature. Thanks in advance.

Re: [Zim-wiki] question about attachments folder(?)
Hi, The feature you may be looking for is the document root. It does not replace the attachment folder, but it gives you an alternative way to organize and link documents. You configure the document root folder in the notebook properties (menu File-Properties). Once set you can link to this folder starting a link with / (and dag drop links from this folder should be made relative in this way). Regards, Jaap On Tue, Nov 30, 2010 at 2:21 PM, philippe roudot philippe.rou...@gmail.com wrote: This would be very usefull for me too, in an other usecase, wich I describe below. Indeed I use dropbox to sync my notes, this give me little space for my data (only 2GB for a non-premium account). In order to avoid using too much space, I let the files I refer to in a seperate folder, then I add a link to them instead of attaching them (which avoid the copy of the file in the file tree ). So I keep a attached file folder where I copy all my interesting file with my notes linking to this folder. This way I use little space in my dropbox account while keeping my file tree consistent if I copy note files on an other file system. It would be great if I didn't have to think about to copy first and then link. An option could make the use of an attach folder transparent. The path for the attach folder should be relative (or user defined) in order not to break link consistency.
