Re: [Zim-wiki] Request for Plugin
Hi Bo,
Until someone writes a decent plugin to solve this properly, I've made
a rather simple implementation which I hope can at least partially save
your neck in the meantime :). It automatically scrolls the text to the
center of the window after pressing some keys like Up, Down, Enter etc.
If the text is near the beginning/end scrolling is disabled, to avoid
this you can temporarily put there some text or newlines.
To install it put the file to the plugins' directory and enable it in
preferences. You can enable/disable it by clicking on the toggle button
in the Toolbar menu. It shouldn't break anything but as with all
programs keep backups.

I first discovered typewriter scroll with Scrivener, and would love to
see a plug-in for Zim that can be turned on and off, like Sublime Text
has. See: https://github.com/alehandrof/Typewriter.
I have no idea how difficult this might be. I am willing to pay
$100.00 for the development of this plug-in, that also works in
fullscreen mode and on both Windows and Linux versions. That isn't
much--unless it took 5 minutes and 10 lines of code--but all I could
offer. If multiple parties wished to cooperate to develop it, I could
make it a donation to Zim instead or divide it equally across the
developers, so I guess upfront coordination would be necessary to
avoid duplication of time and effort. It would need to be more than
an Emacs M-x recenter, though even that is better than every word
processor ever made.
I really don't know how supporting developers directly works, as I
have only supported projects, so if I sound stupid or naive or it's
too hard and I'm showing ignorance, you can mock me (but be gentle,
please). But if this is do-able and the list is an appropriate place
to hammer it out or others also wish to support this then great!

Re: [Zim-wiki] Request for Enhancement - zim Linux - Always on Visible Workspace ?
Hello, and thanks for your kind willing to help. I do have wmctrl on my system and I am able to set the sticky attribute for the zim window using the following command: wmctrl -r "My main wiki - Zim" -b add,sticky This is Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.6 with GNOME2. There is a limitation though: When using the Tray Icon plugin you can close the zim window without shutting down zim. I find this very handy. In this case when you close the zim window its sticky attribute gets lost and you have to set it again next time the zim window is opened from the Tray. Maybe trayicon.py is where a GTK call to set the sticky attribute is needed, but I do not have the python skill to do it. mario On 07/21/2015 11:29 AM, SultansOfSwing wrote: Hello, perhaps the tool "wmctrl" is available on your system?

Re: [Zim-wiki] Request for Enhancement - zim Linux - Always on Visible Workspace ?
Hi. Setting the sticky bit for some X11 window is so common for me that I've spent it a separate keyboard shortcut. I'm using XFCE, there keyboard shortcuts are found within the settings for "Window Manager". My choice is Ctrl-Escape, while Alt-Escape puts a window to the back. I've also activated the Stick-Button within the Button layout in Window Manager Style. It's nice to have.

Re: [Zim-wiki] Request for comments: usage of tags
[I think this is the only mailing list I'm on that doesn't do Reply-To, so I always forget to Reply All.] This is an interesting idea. I'm not sure if I'd like it. The @ signs are pretty common in other apps for marking some kind of contextual info, like "context" in GTD apps. I actually wouldn't mind if # signs could be used for a separate tag namespace, but that's another issue. As long as the tags are colored, they should still be recognizable. But I think it would be a little more confusing for new users. I also wonder about color-blind users: for them the color might not be enough, depending on their color preferences. If you do implement this, I think it should be optional. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~zim-wiki Post to : zim-wiki@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~zim-wiki More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Well, there's lots of magic happening when typing markup in zim. The magic usually happens when the space is pressed, that way, you would see the '@' in front of the tag/keyword while typing until space is pressed to leave room for the next word. If you didn't want zim to perform the magic, then press ctrl-z (undo) and the text is there in unformatted format. At least that's what I do when I type file system paths which I don't want zim to magicalize. There is one particular magic that comes to my mind when it comes to expected behaviour: The underline. When an underline is magicalized, the text gets a yellow background instead of the expected underline. Guess this has to do with the editor widget not showing underline or something like that. The tags currently get an orange face colour when magicalized. If the visible @ goes avay, at least the colour change must stay. (I guess it is possible to configure the face colour to be the same as the text colour for those who don't like colour). > > Personally I don't mind seeing the @ in front of my tags, at least in zim. > Dropping it in the HTML export could make sense, though.

That is only useful behaviour if the feature is to be used to generate an index like in a book. Because of the '@' in a tag, I never use them in a line of text, only at the beginning in the first line, alone, or at the end of a single line statement. @a_tag This is a piece of text which is supposed to be a block of text describing something which fits to something which I would later like to find by clicking on a_tag in the tag cloud. If I, at a later time find this passage of text through the search function and discover that it also need another tag, then I can add that to the tag line. The literal @ stands out as an icon and catches attention, but so would a different colour. My other use case for tags is in diaries where I describe what I do to approach a problem: In a calendar/date page: 2012-06-22 Checking if make install works * The Makefile use spaces instead of tabs at the beginning Replace spaces with tabs and try again * Package foobar installs nicely Need to fix spaces to tabs before deployment @todo John called and asked about the progress on the deployment. @followup I know I can use the TODO functionality, but I am kind of reverse polish notation when writing this kind of memo notes. First write, then classify. It is always difficult to rewrite already existing features. I have come to learn and love the tags the way they are right now. Why not find a different markup for keywords, say %keyword, ^keyword or $keyword. Maybe the last one is a bad suggestion for all those who take a note of prices in USD in their zim wikies. I think it is a good idea to use the title of a calendar page in the index pane. -- Svenn ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~zim-wiki Post to : zim-wiki@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~zim-wiki More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

That sounds more like an "object" than a tag. Already for some time I'm working in a separate branch which will feature "inline objects". This would be the feature you need to create an object to represent locations. Could indeed be rendered as a small icon. Alternative you could think of this as a link. I think google maps accepts lattitude and longitude numbers for search. So you could configure an interwiki URL for google maps and insert places like "map?lon,lat" and have it turn into a link that goes to google maps.

Should work exactly as it works now. The tag index version that is "sorted by tag" already looks more or less like an keyword index. And the tag cloud is a useful way to search subsets of pages. I think keywords are similar to tags in the sense that they provide a context as well for a page. Or alternatively they can be though of as a very short summary of the page topic. But I often see people use tags in the same way, basically making a single line description where each word is a tag like "@email (about) @zim @tags".

Re: [Zim-wiki] Request for comments: usage of tags
Hi Jaap, This is not an easy question. On one side we have tags, defined as "non hierarchical categories". You can associate any page with 1 or more tags. On the other side we have keywords (to be indexed). Do we want to keep these 2 "categorization items" separated? I use tags as "contexts", so I would like to keep the "tag cloud" quite short, easy to navigate. And I like to have tags at the beginning or at the end of each article, because I can see at a glance what the article is about, or where it belongs. If you can think about a way of easily inserting tags/keywords as it is now, I see no drawback in merging these two concepts. In fact, in Joomla (the CMS), sometimes you use the "keyword" field to insert "fake" tags, so apparently these two concepts are very similar and interchangeable. It all depends on how you visualize the global index (tag cloud vs alphabetical index). Let's hear what others think about it. Regards Marco Cevoli Traduttore tecnico. Grafico.

Re: [Zim-wiki] Request for Help on resolving a Zim error...
Hi there, deleting the .zim folder is no problem. I sync between different machines using git and have the .zim folder in my .gitignore file. Obviously I end up with outdated .zim folders this way. However I can simply delete the whole .zim folder and do "Tools -> Re-build Index" and everything gets recreated.
