How comes? "." works for me the same way as does "./documentroot": They get translated to an absolute path. Just to be sure: If you set the document root to "./documentroot" in the GUI ("File => Properties"), and then reopen that dialog, it will still be recorded as a relative path? Maybe it should be noted, that my notebooks don't reside in the home directory, but on windows drive "E:" (/cygdrive/e/); therefore "." gets translated like this: . => /cygdrive/e/zim-notebooks/Notes/ ./documentroot => /cygdrive/e/zim-notebooks/Notes/documentroot -- Yu _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~zim-wiki Post to : zim-wiki@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~zim-wiki More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
