Re: copy and paste html (or rtf). Possible?

One thing that I find myself doing a lot is copying from webpages.
Unfortunately, when I paste in zim, it's all plain text.

Would it be very difficult to covert the html in the clipboard to the
basic wiki language that zim uses?
my guess: yes :) In any case, this would be a killer feature. Other
notetakers (onenote, evernote, etc) do this, and that's a clear
advantage. For example, if you copy a table from the web, you ideally
want to keep a table.

As Dotan pointed out, tables are still an open issue. But you could file a bug report asking for an "import html" function that is also triggered when pasting html.
