Zim

option to switch off autosave

Asked by Zoltán Vörös

Is there a way to switch off, or change the frequency of the autosave function of zim? I am running zim on a tablet with flash memory only, and I simply don't want zim to write to the memory every 10 seconds. The version in question is 0.48.
Thanks,
Zoltán

Yes, you can change the interval. Zim will save in any case when you move to
a new page etc. so setting it to a large interval should be almost the same
as switching it off.

See the manual page for details on this option:

(Not sure if it is already in 0.48, you might need to upgrade to 0.52)

Thanks Jaap,

I was about to write a reply to my question based on the conversation in https://answers.launchpad.net/zim/+question/163268. Sorry for bothering you with this, I should have searched more carefully.
