Re: [Zim-wiki] Search by time
Hi Agustin,
this is a task for Version Control System (VCS) like GIT, available as a
plugin, which allows you to perform the following queries:
git diff --name-status "@{3 days ago}" "@{2 days ago}"
more details on:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8016645/git-list-all-files-added-modified-on-a-day-or-week-month
Hope it will be useful information, I have made some experiments with very
smooth granularity of versions, similarly to http://etherpad.org, but needs
to be tweaked :) The GIT should be still sufficient, since you can set an
interval, which triggers a new revision of changes in the notebook.
All the best,
NorfCran

Re: [Zim-wiki] Custom plugins installation
Dear Alessandro, it is great to have a feedback from somebody, who intends to use the plugin. I personally used mainly the custom tool and made a conversion of the custom tool to the native plugin. I have identified and fixed the issue, tested the plugin and it should work correctly now. Please be sure that you paste the code from the wiki page https://github.com/jaap-karssenberg/zim-wiki/wiki/TreeMap-plugin-%28converted-Text2mindmap-custom-tool%29 and there is a right indentation (Python is sensitive to mixed tabs and spaces). I use very up to date version of ZIM-Wiki 0.63 from PPA. Please let me know, if there is still an issue and I will try to solve it for you.

Re: [Zim-wiki] presentations with zim
There is one thing, which comes to my mind, you need to allow execution of the script (file) and if it does not help you could try to close ZIM and run it from your terminal:~$ zim -D It will show debugging details about the running zim as well as custom tools and I can ensure you that this is version independent, because it reads a source of the page, which is fixed. It uses the following standard libraries: gtk, subprocess, os, sys If you find any information/error messages after running the custom tool please let me know so I can make changes before sharing the code on https://github.com/jaap-karssenberg/zim-wiki/wiki with all other custom tools.

you are right, currently I have developed a custom tool useful for
presentations, which takes the opened page with a DEFINED ORDER of
sub-pages in form of sub-links:
+introduction
+methods
+...
consequently after running the custom tool a small window appears and you
can change pages with page up, page down and escape the window by pressing
the escape key or button. It would be nice to integrate it more neatly to
the full screen feature of ZIM, which I have used for some presentations
before :-D Hope it helps and possibly it may be useful also for somebody
else...
You need to copy attached files to ~/.config/zim/customtools/ and restart
the ZIM, than the custom tool should appear under menu -- tools -- presenter

Re: [Zim-wiki] Sort index
Greetings! I also worked around the issue with prefixed numbers and renaming the pages afterwards. I would really appreciate a possibility to define custom order, especially in presentations, which I love to make in ZIM :D It works fine, except the ordering, which restricts usage of alt+PgDn due to alphabetical (in this use case misleading) ordering. The index is strictly alphabetic, but in fact information about order is defined by sublinks in the parent page. For example I would suggest the following approach (category of a wish list and a discussion ;) In case of already mentioned presentation the structure could be the following: +introduction +methods +experiments +results +conclusion If you sort the index according to ordered sublinks on the parent page, than it would match the data structure. The separation of custom sorted and alphabetically sorted could be visually differentiated. That would create more coherent structure between pages and the index. The only question is whether this suggestion is in favour of users and how complicated would be the implementation this feature, since as far as I have researched the SQLite database is not ready for keeping track of customized ordering...

Re: [Zim-wiki] Is there a way of changing the tag symbol?
Dear Paul, it is an extra plugin (requiring installation of this package gtksourceview2), which is called source view. In order to activate this plugin you need to enable it in menu edit -- preferences -- plugins and than scroll down to the plugin and mark the related check-box. Than you can insert block of isolated text (to some extent also highlighted depending on syntax) under menu insert -- code block. It works nicely and helps to keep syntax sensitive information separated. Hope it solves your issue.

Re: [Zim-wiki] Zim Plugin Treemap
Hi Oliver, there are two options you can choose: a plugin or a custom tool. I would recommend the plugin, which is the most up to date version of this tool fully integrated in ZIM ( https://github.com/jaap-karssenberg/zim-wiki/wiki/TreeMap-plugin-%28converted-Text2mindmap-custom-tool%29). The path you need to use in case of the plugin is ~/.local/share/zim/plugins/tremapeditor.py. After you do so, restart ZIM and the plugin should be loaded and listed in menu -- preferences -- plugins you can find Insert TreeMap and enable the plugin. Finally there should be a new item in menu -- insert -- treemap... I hope that this helps, remember that the inserted list of keywords should be tabbed (spaces do not work).

Previously, I thought that it will be sufficient to have only the custom tool, but your feedback made me reconsider Hope some other users can take advantage of this plugin. https://github.com/jaap-karssenberg/zim-wiki/wiki/TreeMap-plugin-%28converted-Text2mindmap-custom-tool%29 All the best, NorfCran On 30 September 2014 14:17, Hella Riede hella_ri...@gmx.de wrote: Dear zim mailing list, Jaap encouraged me to send my question concerning Text2mindmap here: Dear Jaap, dear zim community, I appreciate zim a lot. To try out the custom tools, I downloaded Text2mindmap from https://github.com/jaap-karssenberg/zim-wiki/wiki/Text2mindmap-custom-tool. In the command field of the zim custom tool dialogue, I entered '~/bin/zim_mindmap.py %s', without the apostrophes. The correct figure is produced from a certain page, but not inserted into that page automatically. I can then insert it via the insert image dialogue, but I am relatively sure that the embedding of the figure was meant to be automatic (?). Example: - I write the mindmap code into a page in the path /my/zim/test.txt - then I save, refresh, and call the Text2mindmap custom tool - result: the expected figure is written to /my/zim/test.png, but it is not automatically embedded into the page Thank you in advance for your help.

[Zim-wiki] Command line arguments for AttachmentBrowser
Dear Jaap and other contributors, I am trying to extend attachmentbrowser.py plugin so that it provides command line arguments, which allows storing page path of the attachment folder to clipboard (in case the folder does not exist it is created). It really speeds workflow in my opinion (possibly I can jump over agreeing whether I want to create the attachment folder). Since I often download files and this would be so handy extension, especially when when it can be assigned to globally accessible keyboard shortcuts in the system. Currently I have extended the attachmentbrowser.py with Command class, but I do not know, how to access currently opened page. Possibly it may be necessary to provide argument differentiating notebooks, in case more of them are opened at the same time or use the default one. Thank you in advance for your feedback.

Re: [Zim-wiki] Time Stamped Text (TST) plugin
Dear Japp, thank you for your suggestion, I already started experimenting with difflib library, which is capable of generating deltas. Concerning the data structure with timestamps, it would be possibly worth to consider the following protocol called Gobby, which does provide a way how to collaborate over network on a one to many text files. On top of this feature it also defines data structure, which may accommodate timestamps. Do you think that the protocol cold be integrated into ZIM, since it uses GTK? Possibly it may elevate ZIM like a personal wiki to real-time collaborative writing? The APIhttp://gobby.0x539.de/trac/wiki/APIReferenceoffers libinftextgtk, but I am not certain about complexity resulting from intended integration. Even though the libinftextgtk is implement in C it seems to be possible to wrap the C implementation and use it in Python code according to the following link: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1942298/wrapping-a-c-library-in-python-c-cython-or-ctypes The infinote protocol uses storage in the following form: ?xml version=1.0? inf-text-session user id=1 name=norfcran_apple hue=0.203069/ user id=2 name=norfcran hue=0.628897996/ buffer segment author=1asdfasdfasd fa sdf as tell df as df as df /segment segment author=2asdfa sdf as/segment segment author=1 this may be wrong/segment segment author=2 df as d f/segment /buffer /inf-text-session The segment may be extended by timestamps. So it results in timestamped text, which does not preserve history of changes, but on the other hand it brings a real-time collaboration on a single file. Additionally the timestamps could be utilized for tracking changes over many pages, since time is a natural binder of flow, when there are more than one page edited simultaneously. Hope that these suggestions do not turn it into something impossible, so far at least I can see potentially a feasible shortcut to bring another organizational tool in form of timestamps.

If you really want to timestamp a change of e.g. 2 words half way a paragraph you end up with timestamps every other word in your source text. So you would have to keep a file next to the actual source to track changes as they happen. Kind of keeping a permanent record of the undo stack. Not too hard to hack together if you trigger it to update on each auto-save. Bonus is that you would also get permanent undo. Only technical tid-bit is that our real undo-stack is in terms of positions in the text buffer, which does not match positions in the source text, so some glue is needed there. Alternative would be to store patches and figure out history from that. Most version control system have an annotated mode to show history of text, but those are usually per line, not per word. You could figure out though history per word from the version history. You would have to commit for every other change though, so probably not for your purpose. So in conclusion: 1/ Write a plugin that takes a diff of the text in the source file on each auto-save and stores the deltas timestamped in a record next to the actual source file. 2/ Connect it to the undo stack, so even after closing a page, you can still undo/redo each delta 3/ Figure out what representation of this data you would want in the user interface - e.g. text annotation, change log, ...

[Zim-wiki] Geographically tagged content in ZIM notebook
Dear ZIM users, I have a proposal to enrich ZIM with a possibility to attach geographical locations in form of tags. For instance any page could contain one or many tags @geoloc:50.1859600N, 16.5099800E. These tags should be filtered out from notebook and processed by a plugin. I am willing to work on the plugin with some help in form of hints. The output could be a KML file, which shows all @geoloc tags from the notebook on a digital map for instance in GoogleEarth. The pin defined in KML file would contain information about a namespace to the page. Thank you for any feedback and suggestions.

This would need to be added before merging it in the main branch. Internal links would need support for anchors in the output formats.
