Hi Jaap.

Indeed I've done various combinations, and also started minimalistic with:

awehler@pupillix:~$ zim --server
WARNING: Filesystem encoding is set to ASCII or Latin1, using UTF-8 instead
ERROR: Command server takes 1 arguments

Finally added "-D" to see what's going on. Now, give it another try:


# Oh, this works, the missing argument were the Notebook, surprise :-)
# Notebook is: "~/info/Info_Zim/InfMap"
# but server is silent
zim --server ~/info/Info_Zim/InfMap


# Ohhh, this works also, giving the GUI for start/stop:
# Notebook is: "~/info/Info_Zim/InfMap"
zim --server ~/info/Info_Zim/InfMap --gui


# Oooohhhhhhhhh, this even works also, giving everything wanted:
zim --server ~/info/Info_Zim/InfMap --gui --template Default_with_index



THANKs a lot, Jaap. Just that.

Best regards,

       Andreas
