When I try to run neuron-new-zettel

Not sure if the problem is with neuron-mode or neuron but I got:

neuron--run-command: Command "neuron --zettelkasten-dir \~/dev/neuron/ query --uri z\:zettels" exited with code 1: neuron: user error (Zettelkasten directory ~/dev/neuron/ does not exist.)

The ~ before /dev/neuron/ might be the problem.

neuron-mode 20200805.1051

I just saw that it's working fine if I'm already in another zettel file.

The problem seems to happen when I'm in dired mode in zettel files directory.

Not sure but this might be a duplicate of #46

What is the value of neuron-default-zettelkasten-directory? For the moment, you should set it to (expand-file-name "~/dev/neuron"). I intend to expand automatically but this is not the current behavior, I should be able to fix this easily.

However, regardless of the value of neuron-default-zettelkasten-directory, if your PWD is contained in your zettelkasten, neuron-mode should compute the current active zettelkasten by looking for the neuron.dhall file.
I can see why it would fail when browsing other directories in dired, but I can't reproduce the error when having dired opened at the zettelkasten root.

Could you try with 18d230c ?
