Hi Johan, FYI: there's been a long-standing issue for Zim to move to the
markdown format, and supposedly some work has been done, but I don't know the
status:
https://github.com/zim-desktop-wiki/zim-desktop-wiki/issues/26
A method of converting any format is certainly an interesting idea.

Looking at the code I see that Zim uses readLines (in

P.S. Just noticed that pandoc only converts _to_ zim, so on the way back,
you need to use something like export _from_ zim to markdown and then
potentially pandoc to convert from markdown to other formats

Hallo Johan,
Jij ook de de beste wensen voor het nieuwe jaar !
The workflow basically relies on "covert xyz --> zim, edit zim, convert zim
--> xyz". Obviously, the bottleneck is the accuracy of the converter to
reproduce the original content as close as possible and reflect the edits
properly.
For the save/export side, one possibility would be to do this:-- in Zim do
File -> Print to Browser.-- in the browser, print or save to PDF. (The details
of how do this vary by browser and o/s. You may have to install things and
configure the browser.
There's also in zim a File -> Export...

Thanks for the suggestion. As far as I can see this will allow installing

Hi all,
Best wishes for 2023!
I was wondering... Would it be possible to use Zim as an editor for
