I had looked at autokey before
but it didn't work out of the box (I am running Ubuntu 12.04
with Unity) but upon your recommendation I stuck with it - I
needed to edit the Unity whitelist to allow Autokey to place
itself in the task bar.
So I simply set it to generate a bunch of "-" which is all
I wanted. I now have a hot key and an abbreviation that does just
what I need.
Thanks!

Hi Chris,
This is something that I have asked about last year around this time.
The solutions that I posted were:
(a) use a "line.png" images and have an AutoKey (Linux) or AutoHotKey
(Windows) paste in the following:
{{~/Images/line.png}}
-- or --
(b) insert a diagram using the following dot:
graph g {a[label="",shape=box, width=6, height=0.01,color=blue];}
The advantage of (a) is that you only have one copy of the image and
Zim embeds a link to it anywhere you use it. The disadvantage is that
Zim expands the ~ to paste a hard path into your page - so the link
might break if you move the wiki to another system with a different
root part of the path.
The advantage of (b) is that it doesn't rely on any outside folder -
the disadvantage is that it puts an attachment folder in for any page
in which you embed the graph - both a "diagram.dot" and "diagram.png"
- a makes copy for each usage on the page.
I use (a) routinely - tolerable workaround for now, and all of my
systems use /home/kurt for the root
Sorry I can't offer anything more elegant.

Hi
I would like to be able to draw a horizontal rule on a page using a keyboard
shortcut - similar to how ctrl-d inserts the date, but without a menu - just
draw a rule. I could not find any existing way of doing this. Is there an
easy way to achieve this? I tried a custom command but that didn't do the
trick - I also tried hacking the InsertSymbol code but that didn't work -
and eventually I was able to get my Insert symbol functionality back :-)
Can someone give me a tip on how to implement something like this?
Thanks
Chris
