Hi everybody.

First of all, thanks Jaap for the new zim release.

I ran into a kind of "bug" that forbid to display the content of a page.

Here's the traceback :

----

This is zim 0.57
Python version is sys.version_info(major=2, minor=7, micro=3,
releaselevel='final', serial=0)
Gtk version is (2, 24, 11)
Pygtk version is (2, 24, 0)
Platform is posix
No bzr version-info found

======= Traceback =======

  File "/[PATH]/zim/zim/gui/pageview.py", line 841, in
insert_link_at_cursor
    self.insert_at_cursor(text)
TypeError: GtkTextBuffer.insert_at_cursor() argument 1 must be string
or read-only buffer, not None

----

The reason for this "bug" is simple : I had some wiki formatted links
without url in this page, i.e things like `[[unison|]]`.

And it was my fault : i copied some text from an email with those wiki
links without urls.

Removing the broken links resolved the problem.

So, i think we can't call that a "bug" since it's not Zim that
produced those broken links. I just wanted to inform zim users if they
face this kind of behavior.

And, Jaap, if you want, i can fill a bug on Launchpad for that.

Regards,
