[tw5] Re: [TW5] preventing tiddler-links to break by using ids as reference that translate into titles

2018-04-20 Thread 'Mark S.' via TiddlyWiki
The first half of that task would be to change the view templates. The view 
templates themselves are made up of tiddlers. If you type 
$:/tags/ViewTemplate under the shadow tab of the advanced search you will 
see the various component tiddlers listed. 

There are various approaches, but this is a quick-and-dirty approach that 
may be good enough for most uses.

Click on and then edit $:/core/ui/ViewTemplate/subtitle 
 .

Although this tiddler is called 'subtitle', it doesn't display a subtitle, 
or any title.  We will make the "subtitle" tiddler display the title field. 
Just put

| <$view field="title"/>

to the left of the the date view field. This will add the title to the 
tiddler subtitle line, but in subdued gray text.

Now click on (from the advanced search again) $:/core/ui/ViewTemplate/title 
and open it for editing.

Change down below where it says:

<$view field="title"/>

to

<$view field="subtitle"><$view field="title"/>

[tw5] Re: NoteSelf uses local browser storage seamlessly with a remote synching server

2018-04-20 Thread ljay4041
Danielo's solution made Tiddlywiki "complete" for me personally. I've been 
running it since December and it syncs way better than Evernote or Onenote. 
Which isn't saying much, it's being more than gracious to call those two 
pieces of software malicious garbage. Noteself syncs REALLY well. The 
closest thing I've come to this is using syncthing to sync a zim notebook. 
Which works pretty well, except you can't edit it on a phone. And it's a 
complicated mess.

I learned about TW years ago, but I require syncing so it wasn't useful for 
my use-case until Danielo added noteself. I was really impressed with TW 
back then actually, it's just that syncing is a critical part of the system 
for me, so I ended up trying every other wiki-like system I could get my 
hands on. There are some really cool systems, but nothing compares to TW + 
noteself. Thank you Jeremy and Danielo and everyone who's efforts have 
helped make my dreams possible! (do you have wallets I might be able to 
contribute to or some way to show appreciation?)

My own setup is using couchdb instances on a couple debian devices and 
using one to sync and one as a manual periodic backup. It's public facing 
with https/SSL and I'm syncing great with Android (Have not been able to 
get IOS to work) and also current Firefox on several debian workstations. I 
load the files locally since I wasn't able to get Noteself working via DAV 
over https with simple authentication.

Hope this is helpful to anyone looking at Noteself and Tiddlywiki, I 
personally feel like this is some of the most important and helpful 
software development going on currently and would like to encourage 
everyone to check it out!

Hi Jed,
thanks, hashover looks very interesting on their but i could not get to 
see it running. I fear this is much more complicated.
What I want is far simpler... not a real comment system that allows 
discussions but a simple way of exporting entire Tiddlers as Tid-files 
to reimport them.

[tw5] Re: Snagit Users and TiddlyWiki

2018-04-20 Thread 'Mark S.' via TiddlyWiki
I don't know what BJ has in mind, but assume that he's found an extension 
feature that can work around the browser path limitations. That will be 
interesting to see.

But even if the path information isn't exposed in standard DAD (DragAndDrop 
, obviously the file name is. So if you know that all your images are going 
to be in directory 'xyz', then it should be able to construct a DAD process 
that pulls the path name from a configuration tiddler and creates a new 
_canonical_uri from that. Most of my image directories are below the 
directory where the TW is so that it's easy to transport everything 
together. They tend to be like images/2018 so that the configuration 
tiddler would only need to change once a year or so.

 I use SnagIt from TechSmith for screen capture and videos. It can also

 I just upgraded to their latest version 2018 and wanted to let you know 
 it can do the following very well that is useful with TiddlyWiki

- Drag and drop directly from the snagit editor tray to tiddlywiki 
(PNG files)
- Capture text out of images (and past into TiddlyWiki) as text 
(OCR)
- or move text within the captured image
- Capture a video, then drag into TiddlyWiki as MP4  from the 
snagit editor tray to tiddlywiki
- It also has a wide range of stamps which can annotate or be used 
on their own to create images / icons to use in TiddlyWiki


 
- and a lot more that was already there.

Mark,

I will check out the solutions you mention, Ditto sounds great for My 
SharePoint work. 

I paid for SnagIt years ago so only need to pay the upgrade, I would like 
camista for video editing but it is more expensive.

I find the ability to annotate the capture in the SnagIt Editor immediately 
after capture improves the work flow. 
So now it is Snap, Annotate, drag and drop, then insert image reference 
into part of TiddlyWiki (This could be better)

Dreaming I would like to drop and image on an open tiddler and have it 
insert the link to the image and import it in one step.

[tw5] Re: nodejs server - creating tiddler with text editors in folder rather than in browser. ??

2018-04-20 Thread 'Mark S.' via TiddlyWiki
BUT -- are you restarting the server after you make the .tid ? You have to 
restart the server. AFAIK the server only loads the tid files when it first 
starts. After that it works from browser memory. 

Also, what directory are you launching from? In your example, you need to 
be in the /home/sherab/ folder when executing the tiddlywiki server command.

Good luck!

Hi 
I realize my language was not precise enough
to answer your questions:

   - the command I use to launch the server is 

tiddlywiki thunderwiki --server


   - My tiddlers are indeed in my /home/sherab/thunderwiki/tiddlers/



   - Then while inside the thunderwiki/tiddlers/ - using a text editor, I 
   am creating a tiddler
  - I create a tiddler 
  - title: New Tiddler
 - modifer: wisdomlight
 - I give it a .tid 
  - nothing happens
   

I'd really like to type my tiddlers with a text editor.

[tw5] Re: transclusion and tables

2018-04-20 Thread 'Mark S.' via TiddlyWiki
Well, I hope someone can give you a better answer than this, but whenever 
I've needed to build a table this way I've ended up using HTML structures 
in the template. So 
you would invoke like:


{{{[tag[arme]]||template-equipement}}}


and your template-equipement would look like:

 {{!!nom}}  {{!!type-equipement}}  {{!!degats}} 
 {{!!qualites}}  {{!!cout}}  {{!!note}} 


Good luck!

[tw5] Re: [TW5] preventing tiddler-links to break by using ids as reference that translate into titles

2018-04-20 Thread Miroslav Kalous
A little detour from the title/GUID debate:

I was wondering, and perhaps I'm not the only one, if someone has already 
tried to *use uni-link together with modification that displays caption of 
a tiddler as its name *(effectively using caption as title-shown but not 
changing title-proper)? I mean what Mark S. hinted upon: "Perhaps the 
ViewTemplate could be modified to also use the caption or subtitle, 
reducing confusion."

I think uni-link is a big help with link breakage issue. But I'd also like 
to view or edit a tiddler while seeing its new title, meaning caption. 
Otherwise I am not sure uni-link would trump the 
create-newly-titled-tiddler-and-translude-its-previous-version-into-it or 
the clone-existing-tiddler-change-its-name-and-link-its-older-version-to-it 
workarounds for me.

Though I don't have the least idea if such a modification of the tiddler's 
name behaviour is possible or how difficult it would be to make it. Thanks 
for any suggestions.

[tw5] Re: nodejs server - creating tiddler with text editors in folder rather than in browser. ??

2018-04-20 Thread 'Mark S.' via TiddlyWiki
How are you launching Tiddlywiki. What command are you using? What 
directory are you in?

Did you restart the server? It must be restarted to see new tiddlers.

Normally, if you follow the install directions, tiddlers will be in a 
folder below the TW folder you created. So if you are in your home 
directory (~) and your new tiddlywiki is in a sub-folder "mynewwiki" then 
the command would be

tiddlywiki mynewwiki --server

(there are variations depending on setup)


And your tiddlers would appear in 

mynewwiki/tiddlers

So it's odd when you say that your tiddlers are appearing in "the 
Tiddlywiki" folder.

Good luck

Re: [tw5] Re: [INTRO] uni-link plugin

2018-04-20 Thread Jeremy Ruston
A property of most GUID generation algorithms is that they can generate a 
stream of GUIDs that are guaranteed to be unique across time and space:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universally_unique_identifier

> When generated according to the standard methods, UUIDs are for practical 
> purposes unique, without depending for their uniqueness on a central

With such algorithms it may be reasonable to maintain a GUID in a tiddler field 
other than the title, and to do without any uniqueness constraints (instead, 
one would just need to follow some high level rules, such as that a new GUID is 
generated for a clone of an existing tiddler).

Best wishes

Jeremy.

Solution to what? I think in some use cases a UUID field would have great 
utility.

The discussion is a bit confused between an attempt to change some thing 
rudimentary (forget it) and supporting a structured logic for a work-around 
that could make TW more like a Database (i.e. with unique record numbers )

I think the point is not that TW in any way at centre needs UUIDs. Rather 
that---as an extension---a UUID field could be the HUB of a work-around for 
SOME  cases.

IMO the issue is not what is in the core. Rather about some standardization 
around getting it to behave a bit more like a standard database through 
extension ... IF you need that. UUIDs are the easiest way to that IMO.

What is the structure of the tid file? Does it have a title field? It might 
help to upload a sample.

Also, the tiddler won't appear until you turn off and then turn back on 
your tiddlywiki server.

Yes.  tiddler titile.   once "alias" is a first class TW citizen. 

We need something that works out of the box. The tiddler title is the only 
thing atm, that fulfills the uniqueness requirement. So the tiddler title 
is the only thing, that can be used as a UUID. period. 

We just have to change the existing UI to deal with this. So we have to 
make sure, once a user flips the switch to UUIDs the "subtitle" or 
"aliases" field is filled with the tiddler title text. So the user can 
start to use the tiddler title as the UUID. ... 

I think UUIDs and human readable titles may even coexist. IMO it's 
primarily a UI and editor problem atm. 

I don't think a new uuid-field will be a real solution.

You mean a field with a UUID/GUID would be quite helpful?

I think so for some use cases.

[tw5] Re: [INTRO] uni-link plugin

2018-04-20 Thread TonyM
Mario,

I am in total agreement on your approach to titles and have no problem with 
these myself.

What I am trying to say is can we make a field that containes a unique id 
stored in a field for any (not nessasarily every) tiddler that is independant 
of its name.

If such a field existed I am sure a minor addition to the uni-links plugin 
would allow tiddlers to be located via this permanent reference and render its 
caption, title or alias.

Let me clarify the use of the created date. I doubt even with a bulk import, I 
cant imagin more than 1,000 tiddlers being created in a second. Modification of 
the create code can ensure no tiddler has a created date equal to another, by 
incrementing the milliseconds until unique, almost certianly only one 
millisecond more would do it. This would also guarentee the ability to sort 
tiddlers in the exact order of creation.

I stand to be corrected but I do not see the complications you raise. It seems 
very scalable to me because it does not require a single byte more.

Nor would it likely impact transfered tiddlers. In fact it would be effectivly 
invisible except when someone wants a unique id, it will simply be there 
already.

It seems to me if solutions can be developed where even references can be made 
to tiddlers for which even the title is mutable we may even find ourselves with 
tools for translation or natural language processing.

Such a unique id may allow audit trails or export and reimport such that we 
could even restore renamed tiddlers.

This is an abstract algorithmic idea for sure but I expect they are of interest 
to you.

Regards
Tony

Sure. It's an opinionated theme already.  You would just need to open: 
the tags/EditTemplate 
 tiddler and 
modify the list field. Move the second element to the end of the list.  
BUT ... It looks strange. IMO some more UI tweaking would be needed.

Hi folks, 
Very interesting discussion going on. 

@Brady
Sorry for being silent even if directly mentioned. ... But I think some of 
your early questions about uni-link have been answered by others, in the

The tiddler.title discussion isn't new. If you search for UUID in this

born yet :) (Click this link

I have been involved in most of them, so I thought, I'll shut up this time 
and see what's going on.

For anyone who stumbles on this thread over a decade after the fact, I have 
found the current (as of April 2018) method to make the editor display 
monospace font is to use the following CSS:

.tc-tiddler-frame textarea.tc-edit-texteditor { font-family: monospace; }

the code for importing the comments as tiddlers may help. Some changes we

I'm in favor of a "GUI like" approach. As I pointed out I use

nope ... risk of duplicates is too high to be truly unique, even if you go 
down to the miliseconds.  This mechanism doesn't scale well enough ..

[tw5] Re: how's tiddlyclip?

2018-04-20 Thread BJ

HI Costi,

I use tiddlyclip with opera, I am on version 49 of opera (on ubuntu 14.04). 
It needs to be installed as an unpacked extension and the box "Allow access 
to file URLs" needs to be ticked. download the zip from here 
https://github.com/buggyj/tiddlyclip/releases. (and unzip)

If you are doing a lot of clipping you may want to also use the 
savetiddlers extension - https://github.com/buggyj/savetiddlers/releases - 
it also needs to be installed as an unpacked extension.

I tried to make it backwards compatible as far as I can. So even if you use 
tiddlers that contain uni-links and alias-links in TWs, that don't have the 
plugin installed, nothing bad should happen. 

It will pretty-link all [[alias|?]] links to a tiddler named: ? ... Which 
shouldn't hurt too much :)
and uni-links just work the "old way" without caption and subtitle 
substitution.

Hi Jan,

to prevent closing you need to say the form that this is not wished:



title:>>
Created: 
Info1 wanted from user: 
Body: 



  


please note the target attribute in the form opening.
and the iframe at the end.

to your question if it is possible to  insert  php code trough this input:

yes someone can input php code. but this code is not executed.
as long as you only do string operation with the user input, I see no way 
how any php code is able to be executed.

only then you include the tiddlywiki file in your php script with a include 
statement it is possible that such code get executed.

[tw5] Re: how's tiddlyclip?

2018-04-20 Thread Costi Budai
Hi BJ,

Any idea if this can be used with Opera browser any time soon? I've tried 
some time ago, a kind of Opera ad-don allowing Chrome extensions to work 
with Opera, but I couldn't make TC work...

Thanks.
Costi B.

Great BJ,

Looking forward to it. tiddlyclip really is an iconic TiddlyWiki solution. 
Thanks for developing it further.

 Folks,

 I use SnagIt from TechSmith for screen capture and videos. It can also 
 modify and annotate images which is very helpful for building 
 documentation.

 I just upgraded to their latest version 2018 and wanted to let you know 
 it can do the following very well that is useful with TiddlyWiki

- Drag and drop directly from the snagit editor tray to tiddlywiki 
(PNG files)
- Capture text out of images (and past into TiddlyWiki) as text 
(OCR)
- or move text within the captured image
- Capture a video, then drag into TiddlyWiki as MP4  from the 
snagit editor tray to tiddlywiki
- It also has a wide range of stamps which can annotate or be used 
on their own to create images / icons to use in TiddlyWiki


 
- and a lot more that was already there.

 Regards
 Tony

Hi Mark,
the new version of tiddlyclip will support selecting areas of the screen to 
screenshot  and allow the result to be saved separately from the docked 
tiddlywiki.
