== Convert xml dump into zim == | |||
The present method of generating an zim file is insanely time-consuming and complicated: Setting up an local media wiki and x hours of converting back and forth just for the one zim file? Isn't (or won't) be there a way of just converting an xml dump straight into the zim format? That would be much easier and less hassle. --[[User:Arisboch|Arisboch]] 18:02, 20 June 2012 (CEST) | |||

Hey, I'm pretty new to programming but I like your project, and I thought I might try to create a zim file. I was thinking of using the "Subjects Taught in Medical School" category from wikipedia and making a special zim file for med students. Will I be able to do that if I review my Perl and hack away at the scripts posted here? Ab1 00:45, 31 August 2011 (CEST)
