Re: presentations with zim

 

There is one thing, which comes to my mind, you need to allow execution of
the script (file) and if it does not help you could try to close ZIM and
run it from your terminal:~$ zim -D
It will show debugging details about the running zim as well as custom
tools and I can ensure you that this is version independent, because it
reads a source of the page, which is fixed. It uses the following standard
libraries: gtk, subprocess, os, sys
If you find any information/error messages after running the custom tool
please let me know so I can make changes before sharing the code on
https://github.com/jaap-karssenberg/zim-wiki/wiki with all other custom
tools.
