Hi, this is indeed a bit confusing.
1. to get Ditaa to work, you need to download ditaa from here first: http://sourceforge.net/projects/ditaa/ --> I suggest to extract the content of the zipfile rather to c:\tools\ditaa then into Program Files…. 2. You need to install Java for Windows (which you probably already have) 3. As you are using the portable Zim version, Dita seems not be activatable in the plugins menu, even if you add c:\tools\ditaa into PATH You can’t find the ditaaeditor.py file within the portable zim version, as it is only available in the source packages. 4. I attached the ditaeditor.py file, already changed the dotcmd entry pointing to c:\tools\ditaa 5. Save this file into %appdata% \zim\data\zim\plugins\ 6. Activate in plugins within Zim 7. Start from Insert menu Regards, Murat From: Mario Daniel Carugno [mailto:carug...@gmail.com] Sent: Montag, 10.

I'm using a portable zim desktop, but I think it should be the same, right ? In some manual page says that plugins should be copied to python's site-package folder If a plugin is distributed as a separate python module, it should be installed such that zim can find it. For use specific plugins you can install them Python's "per user site-package directory". For example for python 2.6 this folder is: Unix (including Mac OS X): ''~/.local/lib/python2.6/site-packages'' Windows: ''%APPDATA%/Python/Python26/site-packages' So, do I need to have Python installed for running plugins ? It's confusing so far ... 2015-08-10 5:19 GMT-03:00 Mukli Krisztián <krisztianmu...@mukli.hu<mailto:krisztianmu...@mukli.hu>>: Hi, I use this method: 1. Copy ditaa somewhere (e.g. C:\Program Files (x86)\Ditaa) and add that directory to the PATH 2. Edit C:\Program Files (x86)\Zim Desktop Wiki\zim\plugins\ditaaeditor.py file in a text-editor (notepad, for example): Find an comment (or delete) next line (somewhere in the top of the file): dotcmd = ('ditaa') replace it or add to the next line: dotcmd = ('java -jar "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Ditaa\\ditaa0_9.jar<file:///\\Ditaa\ditaa0_9.jar>"') 3. That's it, restart Zim and check Ditaa-plugin.

I've downloaded ditaa, which is just a jar file But I don't know where to copy it in order to be recognized by Zim First I've put it in the same directory where the book is. Then I've copied it in a directory in the path variable Nothing worked. So, where is the right location for plugins ?
