Zim Portable Description

Zim brings the concept of a wiki to your desktop Zim is a graphical text editor used to maintain a collection of wiki pages. Each page can contain links to other pages, simple formatting and images. Pages are stored in a folder structure, like in an outliner, and can have attachments. Creating a new page is as easy as linking to a nonexistent page. All data is stored in plain text files with wiki formatting. Various plugins provide additional functionality, like a task list manager, an equation editor, a tray icon, and support for version control. Zim can be used to: * Keep an archive of notes * Take notes during meetings or lectures * Organize task lists * Draft blog entries and emails * Do brainstorming Zim handles several types of markup, like headings, bullet lists and of course bold, italic and highlighted. This markup is saved as wiki text so you can easily edit it with other editors. Because of the autosave feature you can switch between pages and follow links while editing without worries. Features Content is saved "transparently" All pages you create in zim are saved as plain text files with wiki formatting. This means that you can access your content with any other editor or file manager without being dependent on zim. You can even have your pages in a revision control system like CVS or use a Makefile to compile your notes into a webpage. Any images you add are just image files which are linked from the text files. This means that zim can call your standard programs to edit images. When you embed an image in a page the context menu for the image will offer to open it with whatever image manipulation programs you have installed. After editing you just reload the page to see the result. The editor tries to get out of your way The best wiki is a wiki that does not interfere between you and the content The editor tries not to bother you with tasks that distract from the content. This means for example that files are saved automatically but also that files and directories are created and removed on the fly as you add or remove content in the wiki pages. While working on content you should not need to bother with things like the directory structure. Related features include: * You can use wiki syntax to type formatting * If you restart zim it opens at the same place you closed it. * The wiki can navigated completely using key bindings. The editor allows you to organize your notes The ability to hyperlink pages is a powerful way of organizing content. This goes further than hyperlinks in ordinary web pages. One example of this is that zim keeps track of all links and for each page shows which pages link to it, making links bidirectional. You can also link webpages or external files, when clicked zim will open these with the appropriate applications. Since zim has the GUI layout resembling a note-taking application you can organize your pages hierarchically, allowing for example to group pages by topic. But because you also have wiki-style backtracking of links you could also have a category system by using backlinks so a page can link to multiple categories. And more.. A few other things I would like to mention: * Zim has various plugins for things like: o Spell checking o an Equation Editor o using Calendar pages o a Task List dialog o a Tray Icon * You can export your notes to Html if you want to publish them
