 If I have all the files locally, it seems relatively easy to include images in addition to the text. But how do I include images if I'm starting from a Wikimedia project dump? It's obviously possible to do and to automate, because it's done [http://www.kiwix.org/wiki/Wikipedia here], but I can't find instructions on how. Is that just automatically handled by the Wikimedia export or something? --[[User:DanielH|DanielH]] ([[User talk:DanielH|talk]]) 07:46, 8 March 2014 (CET)

+== Difference between zimwriterfs and buildZimFileFromDirectory.pl ==
+These two files seem to have exactly the same purpose. I notice that zimwriterfs is newer, but other than this and the fact that it's written in C++ instead of perl, what are the major differences? Should I always use zimwriterfs, or might the perl script be better in some cases? --[[User:DanielH|DanielH]] ([[User talk:DanielH|talk]]) 05:36, 9 March 2014 (CET)
+: They both have the same purpose, but use zimwriterfs, buildZimFileFromDirectory.pl == is deprecated. [[User:Kelson|Kelson]] ([[User talk:Kelson|talk]]) 10:46, 9 March 2014 (CET)
