Re: Interwiki links for Zim Desktop Wiki on Windows

 

Hi Jason,

The location of the XDG folders in Windows is a little bit weird... you
should put your urls.list in the folder
%APPDATA%/zim/data/zim

i.e., there should be an extra "zim" folder inside "data". Weird, yes. But
it works :)

Regards,
