Effectively, I might have deleted the second level page in the index by mistake (red node in the print-screen -- I am not good with ASCII art). If I recall correctly, the structure was similar to the mind-map graph. I don't like deletion confirmation. I always disable them. I can see the ZIM pages I delete in the trash. It's enough. Unfortunately, My drive is more than full. The rsync script runs every 12 hours, just before I delete the trash... Et voila! I will review my backup options. I installed Git, and "Giggle" a GUI GTK+. There is nice free resource for beginner here: http://git-scm.com/book. Still, that's a lot of reading for the basic usage to save different Zim versions. I am not even sure if I can use Nano (largely enough to edit some .conf files, and to write simple scripts) with GIT, or if I also need to learn .vim, or emac. I will see that later. --nomnex -- nomnex Freenode: nomnex Registered Linux user #505281.

Re: [Zim-wiki] Zim version 0.59 released
A true and funny observation, Vlastimil Ott. Unfortunately this case is different: The affected user _was_ fully backing up their work. In fact, this incident points up a *weakness* inherent in automatic syncing strategies. Version control is a loosely related, though completely separate technique, to allow "rolling back" to a previous version of a document. I wonder whether Zim might make it easier for average users to implement version control. Perhaps add plugins to include an "embedded" copy of one of the supported version control systems? Just brainstorming...

Re: [Zim-wiki] Zim version 0.59 released
I had to leave the office in a rush -- I'll send an "announcement" email later tonight. But just to let you all know if you're waiting for it, I compiled 0.59 for Windows and posted it in the usual place: http://www.glump.net/software/zim On Thursday, January 24, 2013, Jaap Karssenberg wrote: > All, > > Yesterday evening I released a version 0.59 of zim.

Re: [Zim-wiki] Zim version 0.59 released
Has version control been tested on Windows? I have Git so just tried it out... It wasn't obvious from Configure whether I needed to do anything more but eventually I found the "More info" docs. So then I tried "File > Save Version?" This said version control was not yet enabled, so I confirmed I wanted it and this greated a .git repository but the Zim GUI froze and never came back. Now Zim won't start up and (as before on Windows) Zim -D is not generating a log. At this point I noticed there is a new version of Git for Windows so ran the install to bring it up to v1.18 (git-scm.com). The installer noticed Git.exe was running and closed it, at which point the Zim GUI woke up and showed this error dialog: Failed to run application: git git "commit" "-a" "-m" "Automaticallyse saved version from zim" returned non-zero exit status -1073741510 Note that despite this error a ".git" repository was present before Zim unfroze, but has disappeared now but this may be because I disabled sync of .git in Dropbox? That would explain absense of ".zim" here also. It could be that Dropbox is the culprit here. Can you stop sync without Dropbox doing this!!!? Should I just let it sync ".git" (which I don't like to do?!).

I'm sorry, but if the files are gone, there is no other backup within zim. (I always recommend to use the version control plugin, to allow rollbacks.) I would double check trash though, if accidentally they were deleted from within zim, they might have ended up there. I really doubt this is due to the update to 0.59 itself. There is nothing in the update that even touches pages. Some background on the issue fixed in 0.59 * The issue fixed was already there for a long time, it was not new in 0.58 * The issue only dropped small pieces of newly inserted text in a page, not whole pages * The issue only affects paragraphs that are being modified, other text in the same page is unaffected That being said, you may have stumbled on another issue. Afraid it is hard to tell without an exact description what the last thing is you did with those pages.

I have 20 pages missing on one of the 4 notebooks. I had recently edited this notebook using 0.58 (I first created the pages on 0.56).
