You can Atl-tab to zim and then press Ctrl-T to toggle verbatim mode mode and then middle click.

Re: [Zim-wiki] Problems with bullets
Sorry for the third post in a row. But I have just discovered that the weird behavior somehow is related to the fact that I try to create an indented list from the start (just start an empty page, hit tab and start a list in this new indentation level). If start the bullet list without indentation than the * become nice bullets right away and zim's behavior is good. best, Paulo On Sun, Nov 29, 2009 at 8:26 PM, Paulo J. S.

Re: [Zim-wiki] Problems with bullets
Just to let you know: I have just reproduced the bug using the new 0.42 beta2 just released. All the problems are there when I create a indented bullet list 1) The * character does not becomes a nice bullet right away 2) The indentation is not showed when I open the file 3) If I try to fix the indentation I get the bullets symbols in the txt and the extra blank lines Paulo On Sun, Nov 29, 2009 at 8:19 PM, Paulo J.

[Zim-wiki] Problems with bullets
Hello, I am having some problems when using bullets in the pages. Pyzim is forgetting the original identation and adding some blank lines in bullets lits. I have also noticed that in the txt instead of appearing bullet symbol * it gets another character that looks more like the formatted symbol: • Another thing that called my attention is that while I am adding a new item to the bullet list once I type * followed by a space the * does not become the nice bullet symbol right away. I have to move to another page and then come back. Am I the only one experiencing this?
