There actually is a bounty for adding tables as a feature.

Re: [Zim-wiki] Windows XP is dead; any objection to dropping support for XP from Zim in the next release?

[Greg Warner]

No objections here.  Do you have any statistics regarding which OS people
are using when they download the windows build of Zim (perhaps pulled from
an analytics tool or server logs)?  If a non-trivial amount of people are
still downloading Zim (many of which might not be on this list) with
Windows XP, it would probably warrant at least testing the Win 7 build on
XP.  Of course, the users will probably do that for you! :P

Re: [Zim-wiki] Open Notebook on Network Computer in Windows?

As a workaround, you could assign the network share a drive letter in

Re: [Zim-wiki] Win32: GUI with native controls?

Use "--standalone" to get zim to work with pythonw.exe.

My windows instance of zim looks native to me and I don't recall doing
anything special.

[Zim-wiki] Zim 0.57 with pythonw.exe

[Greg Warner]

I probably represent a minority here, but instead of using the standard
windows installers when they become available, I just do a "bzr pull" and
"bzr update" (in windows) whenever a new release is announced.
 Interestingly enough, with the 0.57 release, I can no longer get zim to
start with pythonw.exe.  I get to the screen where I select which notebook
I want to open, but then the process dies.  Oddly enough, when I run it
with python.exe, it works fine, though I'm left with a superfluous console
window in the taskbar.

I was hoping that python.exe wouldn't work so I could get a useful stack
trace, but it works fine!  Boo!!  And since pythonw.exe doesn't have a
console window, I don't know why its dieing!  Oh the irony.

I know this isn't a lot to go on, but does anybody have a suggestion?  0.56
worked fine with pythonw.exe.

Re: [Zim-wiki] Zim and ipython

[Greg Warner]

Have you seen the ipython notebook (see http://youtu.be/HaS4NXxL5Qc)?

To answer your question, I have mixed feelings about the idea of embedding
ipython in zim.  I think it would be a really neat and novel feature.  I
think it would take considerable effort if you wanted it to be on-par with
the rich feature set that the qt and notebook ipython interfaces have
(graphing, input, realtime output, etc). And lastly, I think there are
higher-priority features such as table support and, speaking of python,
code syntax highlighting.

Re: [Zim-wiki] Multi user?

Or maybe something like a shared dropbox folder would work.  I'm not sure

Re: [Zim-wiki] spell checker on windows xp

[Greg Warner]

Looks great. Thanks for sharing.

** Warning: Ugly Hack **

Unfortunately, I'm running Python 2.7 and can't find a PyGTKSpell installer
for 2.7.  The 2.6 installer wouldn't work out of the box because it
couldnt' find a 2.6 installation.  I edited the installer using vim (vim
-b) and changed the 2.6 version string to 2.7.  It installed fine, but when
trying to do an 'import gtkspell' from the python prompt it would give me
an error.  So I had to edit the ./Lib/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gtkspell.pyd
file (using vim -b) to reference python27.dll instead of python26.dll.

Now everything works!

Re: [Zim-wiki] ms-outlook uri support

[Greg Warner]

Yes, you're right.  "outlook://FOLDER" is a legitimate URL.  I don't know
why I said that nonsense about "outlook urls cannot have a double-slash"
because I knew about the folder linking, but I had personally decided that
linking to a folder would be useless.

Here's a link supporting folder linking:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/158135
Here's my original link supporting the GUID linking:
http://www.davidtan.org/outlook-2007-adding-outlook-url-protocol/

So I think this is the best solution, and if you agree to it, I'll work on
it and submit another patch:

"outlook:.*" links will be treated as zim links unless the part after the
colon is exactly 140 alpha-numeric characters long.

Here is an actual outlook guid-based
url: 
Outlook:E00744D8C7D8B7418DAE521ABB4BDF940700821B2170E9E7F04FA38DF7EC21DE48710F59B72F81505B8B370BEA44B01EA558905E10370001762A

Re: [Zim-wiki] ms-outlook uri support

[Greg Warner]

As far as I know, the outlook URLs cannot have a double-slash following the
colon.  I'm pretty sure that is an Outlook implementation detail and not
related to my particular link-generation program or the required registry
settings.  If such is the case, then paste re-writer simply would not work.
 (In my first experiments, I added the double-slashes, in which case it
correctly recognized it as a URL and opened outlook, but outlook gave me an
error).

What do you think about this option:

Outlook URLs are entered with the double-slash (ie. outlook://GUID_HERE),
but when clicked, they are re-written to omit the double slashes?

Re: [Zim-wiki] ms-outlook uri support

[Greg Warner]

Here is the code you are referring to (contained within a function called
open_url()):

elif url.startswith('outlook:') and hasattr(os, 'startfile'):
  # Special case for outlook folder paths on windows
  os.startfile(url)

First thing I notice is that it's looking for "outlook" and not "Outlook"
(which is what the link generator program uses... no biggie).

The problem is that open_url() is only called if the link-type (as
determined by the link_type() function in parsing.py) does not match either
interwiki, page, file, or notebook (see pageview.py:4547).  Without the
modifications I made, the link-type is determined to be a page as it does
not match the url regex, and therefore, the open_url() function never gets
called for an outlook link.

Does that make sense?

If the outlook links had the double slash after the colon (outlook://), we
wouldn't be having this problem as it would match the url regex.  But it
does not.

Greg

[Zim-wiki] ms-outlook uri support

[Greg Warner]

Hi Jaap, list,

I recently wanted to be able to link to my outlook (work) emails from
within Zim.  The URLs for outlook, however, look like this:
"outlook:SDKFJLSDJFLJKJKJ234fjLSDJFLKS(somereallylongGUID)".  Zim doesn't
recognize this as a URL/URI, but thinks it's a page, so hence the patch.

And for those interested, tweaking Zim is only half the battle.  If you
want to use outlook URLs, you'll also need to:

   - Add support for outlook urls to your registry:
   http://www.davidtan.org/outlook-2007-adding-outlook-url-protocol/
   - Download a little utility that creates the outlook urls (basically
   finds the GUID of the message in question).  The above link will point the
   way.

I'm hoping this will allow me to more easily create action items referring
to outlook emails as well as point to emails as reference material.

Greg

[Zim-wiki] Tables

[Greg Warner]

I've been thinking a little about a potential tables implementation for zim
wiki.

This page (http://zim-wiki.org/wiki/doku.php?id=support_tables) suggests
using TreeView.

Why is it that we can't just use gtk.Table (layout widget) ?  Use it to
layout several zim text buffers and throw them in a container widget (if
necessary).

I've never used gtk, so my apologies if this is a silly question.

Re: [Zim-wiki] Regarding create directory in attachment browser.

[Greg Warner]

Curious: Why can't you just call 'mkdir %d' directly?
