Done at e0ed35f. The "add_path" keyword arg to c.recursiveImport controls 
whether the @path directive will be added.  This is true by default.

Not really, well, they might need to be PNG's to work the way Leo uses
them, but from the point of view of generating them with the script, no.

The script really does two things, runs a loop with these values:

(0, ('clean', 'no_clone', 'unmarked', 'empty'))
(1, ('clean', 'no_clone', 'unmarked', 'content'))
(2, ('clean', 'no_clone', 'marked', 'empty'))
(3, ('clean', 'no_clone', 'marked', 'content'))
(4, ('clean', 'clone', 'unmarked', 'empty'))
(5, ('clean', 'clone', 'unmarked', 'content'))
(6, ('clean', 'clone', 'marked', 'empty'))
(7, ('clean', 'clone', 'marked', 'content'))
(8, ('dirty', 'no_clone', 'unmarked', 'empty'))
(9, ('dirty', 'no_clone', 'unmarked', 'content'))
(10, ('dirty', 'no_clone', 'marked', 'empty'))
(11, ('dirty', 'no_clone', 'marked', 'content'))
(12, ('dirty', 'clone', 'unmarked', 'empty'))
(13, ('dirty', 'clone', 'unmarked', 'content'))
(14, ('dirty', 'clone', 'marked', 'empty'))
(15, ('dirty', 'clone', 'marked', 'content'))

and demonstrates their use to make simple 4-color square PNGs using
PIL.  But you could certainly use that loop to generate SVG files in
various ways, maybe hiding / showing pre-drawn elements in an SVG file.

Still the SVG files may need to be rendered to a bitmap format for Leo
to use them, but that's a separate issue.

Do the icons have to be .pngs? I had to make something similar a while ago 
and ended up using  svgwrite to create .svg files,
and then converting these to .png files. This was the best quality route 
for my purposes. If Qt can accept .svg icons directly they
might come out nicer, in case this makes any difference.

aeca2fc: @path is now valid in body text of @ nodes

[Edward K. Ream]

Previously, I have no idea why, @path directives were explicitly disallowed 
in the body text of @ nodes.

But it's actually very useful to put them there, especially when studying 
code recursively imported.  Why? Because nodes can be moved freely--they 
aren't constrained to be children of an @path node.

Next, the recursive import code will insert @path directives when it is 
safe and useful to do so, namely for imported @clean nodes.

went with an indicator for nodes with no content, rather than an

I'm not really sure how important that indicator is anyway... maybe

​Here is tested code.  Create @button substitute, with a body of:

# Make substitutions...
aList = [
('pandas', 'pd'),
('numpy', 'np'),
]
s = p.b
for pat1, pat2 in aList:
s = s.replace(pat1, pat2)

# Create a new node, with the new text.
p2 = c.p.insertAfter()
p2.h = "Substitutions"
p2.b = s
c.selectPosition(p2)
c.redraw()

​The docstring for the ZimImportController class contains:

"First use Zim to export your project to rst files."

This was missing from the  docstring used by help-for-command for
import-zim-folder. Rev 59c1425 adds advice.

HTH.

Works for me.  I typically assume that nobody will use helper functions, 
especially if they are not used in plugins, and outside the class that 
defines them.

Change to icon functions

[Terry Brown]

5406b6e45 changes the calling signature of appendImageDictToList, it no
longer accepts an iconDir parameter.  Always hard to know when a
method's "internal" and can be changed this way or part of the external
API and shouldn't be changed.  Let me know if it causes trouble for
anyone, we can change it to preserve the legacy behavior.

All calls to appendImageDictToList in the codebase updated.

All unit tests unchanged.

ALSO I found the declutter code was broken, partly because of
https://github.com/leo-editor/leo-editor/issues/840  It's fixed now
(hadn't noticed before because it worked with my settings).

Edit text with a script in Leo

[Jeremy Chen]

Hi,

I'm a newbie. I read the tutorials a few times but I still can't figure out 
how to do this.

Let say I have a text file like this:

# bug fix for display formats to avoid run time errors
pandas.set_option('display.float_format', lambda x:'%.2f'%x)

data = pandas.read_csv('gapminder.csv')

# convert to numeric format
data['internetuserate'] = pandas.to_numeric(data['internetuserate'], errors=
'coerce')
data['urbanrate'] = pandas.to_numeric(data['urbanrate'], errors='coerce')
data['femaleemployrate'] = pandas.to_numeric(data['femaleemployrate'], 
errors='coerce')


I need to substitute pandas with pd and numpy with np etc. (step 1)

Can I create a node and put the code into it? (step 2)

And then create another node where I write a script to automate a few 
repetitive substitutions? (step 3)

If so, how do I get step 3 and below going?
Can I read the body of the text node in to a variable and then just write 
python code to deal with it?
Then I have to output it to the console, a new node or file, right?

Any hint is appreciated. Thanks!

zim-import

[Josef]

Hello,
I just tried to import a zim-wiki folder using the menu File --> Import --> 
Import Zim Folder.
I assume that "Zim Folder" refers to a Zim-Wiki, which keeps its data in a 
local folder.

First I got error messages that the @string path_to_zim is missing, until I 
figured out that it needs an @string path-to-zim instead,
so the error message is confusing.

Then I got a message:
not found: .../zim/index.rst

now I am totally confused, because Zim keeps its data in .txt files, not 
.rst and the configuration file is the Notebook.zim file in the top level 
folder.

Being able to read in a Zim folder would be a great thing. I find Zim 
better than Leo for taking notes (dragging info from the browser etc), 
while I prefer Leo as a project manager / editor,
so I use both, and on occasion it would be nice to switch between the two.

I see there was hardly any discussion regarding Zim, so if I am the only 
one interested in this, don't bother implementing anything. In that case I 
would rather suggest to remove the (in my opinion broken) import code.
