@Maitre2Citrouille Note that this project is no longer compatible with the latest version of the JW Library. In July 2023 the database schema was changed from v8 to v13 and I will not be updating JWLMerge to support the new version. In Jan 2023, the JW Library licence agreement was strengthened, but it also gave opportunity for 3rd party developers to apply for official permission to do the sort of work that is present in JWLMerge. I made an application in January but have not received permission, and in these circumstances feel it best to archive the project at this juncture. Thank you for your understanding, and for your valuable input and feedback on the project over the last 6 years.

Really bad news. How to study at different place with different devices in the future? 😧

Hello,

Thank you for feedback.

I understand perfectly your choice: if there is no permission, we respect it.

Perhaps these very usefull option will be added in the future of JW Library.

I think the problem for the organization is to enable this feature without risk that user use cloud drive to do it and to make this feature simple to use and cross-platform without third party app.

Thank you that you answered me.
