Re: [Zim-wiki] Startup- and shutdown-code
Hello Jaap, Sorry, but I don't understand the question. Maybe you can be more specific what you want to do ? mmh, what else can I write? I want to add some custom code during - the start of ZIM, e. g. localization settings for the templates (language for date, date/time format) - before ZIM is quit, e. g. for a backup of the notebooks (copy from server to the local PC) Many thanks and greetings Udo On Wed, Jan 21, 2015 at 8:03 PM, Udo Weik weikeng...@aol.com mailto:weikeng...@aol.com wrote: Hello, where/how can I use startup- and shutdown-code.

Re: [Zim-wiki] Zim for Android
Hi Didier, Sorry for the late reply, I was travelling. Here some quick installation guidelines: 1) Install Sl4A on your Android device (http://android-scripting.googlecode.com/files/sl4a_r6.apk). Note, you need to allow unknown sources first (Setting** - Security) 2) Add the python interpreter within Sl4A (also see http://www.pythoncentral.io/python-for-android-the-scripting-layer-sl4a/) 3) Optional: If you want a synced notebook via Dropbox, install the free app Dropsync (play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ttxapps.dropsync) and choose to sync the folder where your Notebook is located. In my case, I synced this folder to /sdcard/sl4a/Dropbox/, but feel free to choose whatever you like as a path (this is the fullpath variable in Zim4Astarter.py). 4) Copy all the Zim4A files (github.com/kcg/Zim4A) to the same folder (e.g. /sdcard/sl4a/Dropbox) 5) Copy the starter script Zim4Astarter.py to the script directory of Sl4A (/sdcard/sl4a/scripts). 6) Change the variable 'fullpath' to the synced folder and change the variable 'notebook' to the name of your Zim wiki. In my case that's simply Notes (The notebook folder should be in the fullpath folder, i.e. /sdcard/sl4a/Dropbox/Notes in my case). 7) Start the script and see if everything works. 8) Optional: Create a script shortcut on your homescreen for easy accessibility.

Re: [Zim-wiki] Is there a way of changing the tag symbol?
Thanks Mariano and JaKub for your answers. I ended just using the Verbatim option, which does prevent unwanted linking. Best, Paul 2015-01-29 16:07 GMT+01:00 Mariano Draghi mdra...@gmail.com: Paul, Have you tried to apply the verbatim or literal format to the block of text? Whenever you need to paste text that shouldn't be parsed by Zim, select the text block and press Ctrl-T (or from the menú, Format - Verbatim). More info here: http://zim-wiki.org/manual/Help/Wiki_Syntax.html (look for the Markup section, and then the notes about the verbatim or literal text blocks). Hope that helps! -- Mariano 2015-01-29 8:50 GMT-03:00 Paul Gouin paul.goui...@gmail.com: Thanks to all who responded. Turns out my description of the issue was inaccurate: it is not tags that Zim creates automatically but links to new pages. Below is an example of the kind of text I routinely paste into Zim. (These are phonemic transcriptions of recordings made for the purpose of creating text-to-speech synthetic voices; the 1st phrase transcribes and guarantees of due processes ; the @ signs designates the so-called schwa or undifferentiated vowel) If you're patient enough to try and paste this text for yourselves, maybe you'll notice some kind of pattern that escapes me. Links are created on most lines but not all; links may extend across whole lines or not. Disabling the option to Automatically turn file paths into links does not alter Zim's behavior in this respect.

Re: [Zim-wiki] Zim for Android
Hi Jaap, you are definitely right. That is the way to go. I don't think there are technical reasons for not using the zim source. The constraints were more on the programmer's side. ;-) However, I'll have a look at the zim backend and try to replace the QD parser. Thanks.

To me that would be the quickest way forward, use the existing zim code for the backend and wrap with an android specific frontend.

Re: [Zim-wiki] Different background colour for different notebooks?
Ringo, You are correct, you can not set the background color in the config files. What you could do is e.g. change the text color of the page headings, or set a different font (comic sans for personal notes sure would get noticed). You can not make a setting per notebook, but you can make a setting per profile. Then you assign the notebooks to these profiles using the properties dialog. Hope this helps, Jaap On Sun, Feb 1, 2015 at 12:45 PM, Ringo P ringo@erratica.solutions wrote: Right. It appears what I'm looking for is a property for TextView in style.conf that doesn't exist, or at least is not a 'known property' according to this page on the Zim mailing list... http://zim-wiki.org/manual/Help/Config_Files.html I tried on the off-chance specifying colour here using both 'background' and 'bgcolor' tags without any luck. Alternately, it would be possible to change background colour in all Zim notebooks using the GTK style options, but that isn't much use to me. The search continues.

Is it possible to change the background colour of a notebook, and is it possible to apply different style options to different notebooks on the same profile? In (slightly) more depth, my situation is that after five years using a single private Zim notebook I've started also using Zim to build a personal public website using a separate notebook. I'm spending a fair amount of time with both notebooks open, switching between public notes and private notes. It would make my life easier if I could set the background of the public notebook to (say) a light green and the private notebook to (say) a light red. As far as I can tell at the moment it seems like it may be possible to change the background colour if only I could figure out how. I've noticed the distraction free plugin specifies a different background colour with the tag bgcolor= and tried using a similar tag under the main page view section of preferences.conf but that doesn't work. Using a different set of preferences for each notebook seems more difficult. Is this currently possible, and if so how? If not, is it plausible that it might be implemented in the future and would it be worth filing a bug report/feature request?
