Hi, Zim-wiki is awesome for taking and organizing quick notes while performing other activities. there are better tools than Zim-wiki if your want to write documents as a dedicated task (without other distractions present or multitasking). When you have to stop, wait for a countdown, save as with another name and later remember to do the manual version handling... well... this does not help for quick note taking, specially on meetings ;) Is there any technical reason why you can't just overwrite or define a default behaviour in a quick note taking tool? where does a popup window with a countdown fit in the design of this piece of software? Zim wiki is great and has a lot of useful features but IMO not being disturbed while taking notes should be a critical-priority mission for devs seems you are busy now, but I hope this feedback will reach a dev. thank you for 3 yrs of happy Quick-note taking. I really enjoy using Zim-wiki ! looking forward to v 1.0 :)
