Yes, exactly. You just fork the whole config directory by switching the environment parameter.
I understand it is not so convenient in your case, so feel free to open a ticket asking to restore the style per notebook feature. Also allows people to click the "+1" icon and get a feeling how many other users depend on this feature. Background is that refactoring of the code the config folder is now a global object which is not switched per notebook, so switching profiles did not fit anymore in the architecture. To restore style per notebook a new implementation would be needed compared to how profiles were implemented. -- Jaap On Tue, Mar 26, 2019 at 11:50 AM mc <[email protected]> wrote: > So each profile would now be a style.conf in its own > ~/.config/zim > > I assume that would mean I would use a script to start each of my > notebooks: > XDG_CONFIG_HOME=/home/<user>/config1 zim wiki1 > XDG_CONFIG_HOME=/home/<user>/config2 zim wiki2 > ..... > Correct? > > I think this has 2 consequences: > 1.
