[twdev] Re: Hiding the TW (at first)

Joe. FYI I don't use node raw. I use BOB.exe which is basically node wrapped down to TW needs. Its rather good for anything where you need automation on button press. Regarding doing an XML switcheroo I think Jeremy's https://tiddlywiki.com/prerelease/editions/xlsx-utils/ is well worth a look.

[twdev] Re: Buttons on top of TiddlyWiki

Tony M. I vaguely remember someone made a "button-maker" that gave an interface to make all the bits-n-bobs you need for a new button and its placement--everything except the programmatic code for the button itself. Takes a lot of hassle out of the process. I can't find it at the moment ☹ Josi

[twdev] Re: My Blog is now a TW

Ciao Joe Right. You can search Google and find good things. Many of those would be on Github or privately hosted. But I don't think Tiddlyspot TW are currently actively indexed by Google. Unless I'm seriously mistaken. That includes a lot of, many, useful TW 5. Some older TW Classic do seem to
