 The new version won't hit the Mozilla add-ons site for a few days, so head 
 over to GitHub to download it:

 With many thanks to Dimitris Gardiklis, who contributed the original code.

[tw] Re: TiddlySpace RFC

2012-11-06 Thread twgrp
Glad I passed by and saw this! Great you're asking Chris!

1) I suggest a commenting feature where *non-registered* visitors can 
comment on tiddlers/spaces. Why? And isn't this more of a plugin issue? 
Well, it may be a plugin issue, but it is the single most powerful thing I 
can think of to attract people to TS-sites. The current social features 
in TS assume you're designing your spaces for fellow tiddlyspacemen, but at 
least my spaces are targeted at, well, regular folks. Adding a TW/TS built 
commenting feature would allow the spontaneous visitor to interact in a 
whole new way and it would make TS a lot more powerful. 

Ok, that said, here are some perhaps more conventional opinions:

2) I wish there was a general focus on mixing, merging, copying, slicing 
and dicing between spaces:
a) Currently we can include a space into the current one. I wish we could 
push spaces
b) ...and that we could include individual tiddlers. Especially with your 
tiddler centered focus (which I also find exciting!) I think it would be 
great if we could simply include a single tiddler, or at least its 
contents. Maybe something like tiddler tiddlername@space ? It is 
possible, today, to use iframes and the .txt and .html formats but... 
ugly.
c) and finally also *pushing *individual tiddlers. Once again, maybe it's 
a plugin thing but imagine visiting a space and seeing some interesting 
tiddler only to push it into some space of yours via some command right 
there. Maybe a default toolbar command for this could be possible as long 
as all spaces involved are on TS. I'm uncertain if such a pushed tiddler 
means it actually refers back to the original tiddler or if it is a local 
copy.

With my naive non-programming eyes, all of the above seems to be about 
interconnecting subsets of spaces and I'm hoping for some general solution. 
Some of what you guys are discussing in this thread, such as integrated 
searches and publishing individual tiddlers sounds related. With the 
tiddler centered perspective you advocate, Chris, I think these ideas are 
already up on the table, no?

3) I tried, and noted others trying, to use mGSD on TS but it doesn't work. 
I wish it did.

4) Regarding your observation that few/none seem to have opinions on the 
integration of TW5 in TS - well, most of us hardly know what TW5 is yet. So 
FWIW: I'm assuming TW5 will be great and gradually take over from classic 
TW, so of course I'd appreciate if TS integrates this somehow :-)

Thank you Chris!

 I'm writing different versions of this message to different groups. 
 This, the first, is to the tiddlywiki group, I'll also write to the 
 TiddlyWeb and TiddlySpace groups[1] if time allows. 

 I'm writing here first because of those 6000 users, most of them are 
 using TiddlySpace as a place to host their content in TiddlyWikis. 

 For those who don't know TiddlySpace combines TiddlyWeb[2] and 
 TiddlyWiki to provide a flexible, multi-user and multi-domain hosting 
 service for tiddlers with system-wide search, public and private 
 storage, atom feeds, binary tiddlers and a slew of tools to make it 
 easy to create, curate and share your content. 

 Over the past year most of the development on TiddlySpace has been 
 focused in a few main areas: 

 * Stabilizing and optimizing the service for speed and concurrency. 
 * Enabling what are being called apps: Web applications on 
TiddlySpace, using tiddlers, outside of TiddlyWiki. 
 * Enabling real-time information flows with tiddler information 
flowing over websockets. 

 As is the case with most open source projects these priorities come 
 about as a result of who is doing the work and who is being the 
 squeaky wheel. 

 This message is a request for people to squeak and speak up about 
 what they want or need from TiddlySpace. Doing so will help to form 
 priorities and ensure that TiddlySpace serves all the people who use 
 it or want to use it. Any comments or propositions are encouraged 
 and desired. 

 If you don't have something narrative to contribute, then commenting 
 on any of the following (+1 or -1) propositions would also be useful, 
 along with any editorial remarks (such as how to accomplish the 
 proposition): 

 * Make the default TiddlyWiki presented by TiddlySpace be more like 
empty.html with the option to easily add functionality. Or... 

 * Make the default TiddlyWiki be flexible and powerful with 
TiddlySpace functionality with the option to easily be more like 
empty.html. 

 * Provide more blessed themes and verticals and make them easier to 
find. 

 * Accelerate progress on including TiddlyWiki5 in TiddlySpace.

2012-10-26 Thread twgrp
Hi David,

from what I assume is your target group, here are some potential 
'unclarities' (straight from the website, not downloaded):

random note doesn't yield anything other than blank for me. Not sure it 
is a needed feature to begin with, by the way.
There are small minus signs to the right and left of the  + = -  part.
The right show index arrow would be better placed more floating right. 
I almost completely missed the tabs in the front tiddler! I.e the grayed 
out text, Using NoteStorm etc. This may actually be because I'm an 
experienced TW user though, i.e I probably subconscoiusly assumed this was 
a toolbar and therefore did not actively look at it.
Under Using NoteStorm is says how to create new indexes... maybe this is 
seen in the downloaded verision, but not in the online one.


I also have some purely aesthetical opinions:
Tiddler text is unnecessarily right indented from the title.
Would like the left index title (NoteStorm) to be a bit more indented (but 
not the index content)
I'd prefer the top bar items more spaced out.
Tiddler toolbar is also in a funny place, I'd prefer it more to the right 
but also lower down. (Because you use much space between title and text, 
maybe you could have the toolbar under the text?)


Hope this is of any value. All best.

I really, really appreciate your answer, but:

 Instead of using inTiddler in the nested fET expression just pass the
 tiddler title as a second parameter to the inner fET expression:

...unfortunately hardcoding it will not work for my application.
Background: I'm designing a theme space [1] so for this reason, the
theme must treat things like titles generically.

But, I'm not sure the problem lies in the fET. The difficulty is
referencing the tiddler whose content is displayed. I've found these
discussions and it does seem to be (or was?) a problematic matter:

[tw] Re: LinkifyPlugin not link to current tiddler

2012-07-09 Thread twgrp
  was too late yesterday ;-)
 So, if I add this, it must be that when transcluded the title in-fact is
 linkified as the outmost tiddler is a different one.

And now it's late here so I'm not sure I get this right, but anyway:

The point I'm making is from a pure user perspective; Such links
simply refocuses what is already in focus which serves absolutely no
purpose and is only distracting. While this of course can be the
behaviour of standard links too, I guess the difference lies in that
standard links are put there manually and thus for a purpose. (I hope
those two sentences don't come off as arrogant. I'm just trying to
clarify.)

For the record,

pmario's solution does the trick, ie. in StyleSheet, add:

.myIndent {display: block; margin-left: 3em;}

The idea with a  inside the NestedSlider works but gives a vertical

The idea with a : does not work in this context.

work for this.

[tw] Re: Listing a subset of the current tiddlers tags

2012-07-08 Thread twgrp
I'm reminded of one of the problems I've encountered many times, so
just maybe you find value in this or perhaps it is the very same
question:

After much headache I eventually boiled down the question to this
phrase:

List all tiddlers tagged with names of tiddlers that, in turn, are
tagged with a specific tag.

A practical example could be to list all pupils that are tagged with
classnames. Each class is tagged with 'class' and the number of
classes are arbitrary so you can't hard code them into the 'where
clause'.

My listalizer of choce is fET but this does unfortunately not seem
possible there, at least not in a standard manner. If this is your
question, I'll provide the answers from the kind people here and
discoveries I made. (How you prefer to present the resulting list, in
a line or so, is another matter).

 Tanks -m,

 I do use Tagsplorer explorer and it is very useful, however in this case I
 want to use the current tiddlers tags #1 (Themselves Tiddlers with their
 own tags #2) - filter #1 based on #2 and return them in a form where I can
 use the results for multiple functions.

 Are you suggesting I use the code from Tagsplorer ?

 A Specific case example.
 Of all the tags on the current tiddler a number of them indicate they are
 related to one or more projects. A Project tag/tiddler is indicated as such
 buy the a Project tag/tiddler having the tag project. I want a facility
 to return all tags on the current tiddler that represent a project. Then I
 can choose how I will use this subset of tags.

 So for the current tiddler I want to scan all its tags and determine which
 tags represent projects. In One case I want to display a horizontal line of
 Projects associated with this tiddler (Not showing other tags such as
 status/priority etc...) I would like each project to have a link to the
 project to open it and a checkbox to toggle if the current tiddler is
 tagged with the project, so I can quickly remove it.

 The General case
 This facility will see a gap I perceive in tiddlywiki fixed, where the
 tagging facility is very powerful yet once a tiddler is tagged you loose
 information about the tags because there is no attributes on the tags. This
 facility will allow me to lookup the attribute of a given tag - eg; it is a
 status tag, or project tag thus allow me to selectively handle tags on the
 current tiddler by this attribute.

 Tony

  pmario's solution does the trick, ie. in StyleSheet, add:
  .myIndent {display: block; margin-left: 3em;}

 Here's another CSS trick that works with bullets at all levels, and
 does not need any StyleSheet definition at all: simply put a CSS-
 wrapper around the extra lines of indented content, and make sure to
 start the wrapper on the end of the first line of the bullet item (the
 one with the *).  Because the CSS wrapper starts on that first line,
 the content within the wrapper is formatted with the same indentation.

 Thus, the following TW syntax:

 * text for item #1 {{wrapper{
 more content

 including blank lines as desired}}}
 ** text for item #1.1{{wrapper{
 2nd level extra lines
 etc}}
 * text for item #2
 * text for item #3

 results in:

 * text for item #1
   more content

   including blank lines as desired
   * text for item #1.1
     2nd level extra lines
     etc
 * text for item #2
 * text for item #3

 Note how the indent matches the current bullet item regardless of the
 level, rather than being a fixed amount (e.g., margin-left: 3em).
 Also note that the CSS classname wrapper is a placeholder.  It
 doesn't need to be defined in the StyleSheet, since it's only purpose
 is to create a 'container element' to hold the extra lines of bullet
 item content.

 In your original fET loop, you wrote:
 ---
 forEachTiddler where 'tiddler.tags.contains(tag1)'
         write   '* [[+tiddler.title+]]\n{{indent{tiddler
 [[+tiddler.title
 +]]$))}}}\n\n'
 ---

 Try this:
 change the CSS classname (from indent to some placeholder) and move
 the \n to follow the opening of the CSS wrapper, like this:
 ---
 forEachTiddler where 'tiddler.tags.contains(tag1)'
         write   '* [[+tiddler.title+]]{{wrapper{\ntiddler
 [[+tiddler.title

 can yout try:

 forEachTiddler where 'tiddler.tags.contains(tag1)'

 Transcluding a tiddler like:
 tiddler [[tidName]] indent

 is very similar to your snippet but imo produces a different HTML DOM
 structure.

 I didn't test it. so it is a hint only

[tw] [concept] Method to hide/show bits of tiddler content. Other suggestions?

2012-06-30 Thread twgrp
Are there any suggestions how to hide and show *bits* of a tiddler?

For example, I want to show this first half of this sentence but this
second half only if some criteria is fulfilled.

A more practical application (that I use!) is to have a + (i.e a
newHere or similar) appear next to each item in forEach-generated
lists... but the + only appears for me, not to a visitor!

I achieve this with a simple macro call, for each item in the fET, to
a tiddler containing newHere label:+ tag:$1 which is set as
private. The result is a that I can easily create subtiddlers to the
listed items but the visitor can't see any such button at all.

Are there other methods to show or hide bits on command?

I guess the ideal would be some kind of local tags like:
This is public but privatethis is private and/private some things
are private if user==president only relevant for your eyes such as/
private secrets...

There is Simons great HideWhenPlugin[1] but this is applied in
ViewTemplate and EditTemplate so it is not as specific inside tiddlers
and it has to be defined in advance. Or am I missing something? Here
are two examples from his plugin:

div macro=showWhenTagged Task[[TaskToolbar]]/div
div macro=showWhen tiddler.modifier == 'BartSimpson'img
src=bart.gif//div

Other suggestions? Now with tiddlyspace, things are much more out in
the open so I see a need for greater control on this.

Thank you!

 Hi bluespire

 First off, you ask for best practice in the headline but I'd
 guess(!) there is none because TW is such a general tool that what you
 describe has probably not been done by many.

 That said, I would say that this would be a LOT easier to do if you
 deal with text instead of pictures. Perhaps you've taken screendumps
 on a pdf? Did you know that you can actually select text in a pdf doc
 to copy paste into a text editor? (select by left click and dragging
 mouse).

 An idea to actually get it into tiddlers in TW is to put this text
 into a spreadsheet(!)! This way you could relatively easy move
 sections under one another vertically and add your desired tags next
 to each. Export as CSV into eg. Notepad and then copy-pase into
 tiddlytools CreateTiddlersFromCSV [1] that takes an actual CSV text
 and converts it into tiddlers!

 You will (for sure) have to experiment a bit with a smaller experiment
 to get the details right.

 If you do intend to use the picture version anyway, you may wish to
 follow one of the current discussions here on how to display pictures
 from a Picasa album [2] or possibly other storage. (Interestingly, at
 least IMO, I just last night posted that perhaps it could be
 generalized into a more general file handling system.)
 This does not quite address your issues but if(!) it were to develop
 into something where individual items in a gallery display can be
 tagged then it could probably work.

 Note: generally, you should only show pictures in TW via links.
 Storing actual pictures in TW makes it very big and slow, but links
 are smooth.

[tw] Re: Picasa gallery display in TW

2012-04-27 Thread twgrp
@Mario, but probably of interest for all

Google Drive... actually... I'm beginning to think this might be a
viable way after all.

It turns out Drive has a Grid View (button next to the cogweel) to
show thumbnails! I don't think this existed in Docs.
Thus, from a show-via-TW point, you have all the desired features as
far as I can tell:
- you have a storage place for the pics
- it is the same storage space where you save other files (Picasa is a
separate one-purpose system)
- ...and it syncs across all your devices
- you can look at the pics conveniently in that Drive folder (the Grid
View)
- you can sort and rearrange smoothly (Picasa, or at least Picasaweb
that I use is very iffy eg. with tiny menus that you must enter to
move stuff)
- and you can share stuff publically or with secret link - both
folders and files

One point with Picasa is the surrounding system to show albums etc -
but this is exactly what we don't use when we want it via TW instead.

IMO, Google Drive is pretty much all anyone could wish for - or?

Also, I can imagine that it would be desirable for a TW user to be
able to generate a gallery in TW showing not only pics but also eg a
document or so. (Maybe not for vacation pictures, but definitely as
part of work projects etc). Then the picture gallery concept that
this whole thread has been concerned about is really generalized into
a document management concept.

Thoughts?

You should alter things in the ViewTemplate of the theme you're using.
(Note, the tiddler ViewTemplate is the default view template and
probably not the one used in your theme).

The view template defines which parts the tiddler should consist of in
view mode, thus basically:
toolbar
title
text
tags

Note that what you probably want is to *replace* the existing bottom
most tags with the taggly..

And, just FYI, it is also possible to include tagglytagging in the
bottom of the EditTemplate (in your theme).

Go to your PWA account and click on the album in question.

You should get something like the following:

This is at least better than what I described above peeking at the
page source etc. Just maybe it is possible to extract it since it
appearently does exist there as a link.
...or, just maybe the page to apply the whole picasaplugin/slimbox
should be the RSS page!?

I also found this possibly relevant thread which is a bit too cryptic

 Picasa has tags too, so filtering would be possible at load time.

I guess both are desirable even if TW filtering probably makes more
sense unless the source gallery is huge and there are time issues or
such. Actually, are the tumbs shown when the whole code is done
processing or are they spit out (spitted? spitten?) one at the time in
the process? I'm asking both from a time perspetive (which clearly is
not an issue as far as I can tell but just might be with huge albums)
but I'm also asking because if they're spit/en/ed out one at a time

No, sorry, I didn't mean a TW to replace those products. I was just

Mario - you are so kind!

Fancybox has really beautiful displays! Great work Mario! I tried to
figure out how it works but must ask:
* is it enough for the user to only provide the url to the picasa
gallery/album page. I.e I don't want to have to copy paste individual
urls and I don't want to be foreced to name the pics specifically like
x1, x2, x3 etc with some kind of coded for-loop on x_.

I'm open to any solution that fulfills this and displays a full folder/
album in gallery view with some kidn of klickable thumbnails for
larger display.

I naively thought that after that official TW+jQuery integration a
while back that it would be easy to do use jQuery stuff, no? What
did the integration bring?

Thank you so much for your reply Mario!

 Hi Matias,
 I did integrate the fancybox [1] picture viewer a year ago. I did make
 everything configurable, to expose the whole fancybox power to the
 user. It turned out, it was much more work, than I thought. That's why
 I didn't respond to your first post :)

 EmbedPicasaGallery internally uses the slimbox2 [2] viewer, which is
 quite similar to fancybox. *thinking: don't touch it.*

 Since you want to use it with TS, the whole stuff needs to work
 _online only_. right? If so, I can set up a quick hack, that exposes
 the EmbedPicasaGallery functions with InlineJavascriptPlugin and some
 tiddler transclusions. This lets enough space, for further hacking (by
 others). I'm going to use slimbox2 default settings only.

 I'll post a link here, . soon  ;)

 have fun!

2012-04-23 Thread twgrp
In deed incredible that you threw this together just like that! It
appears to be exactly what I'm hoping for!

And clever to split it up like that for other possible applications.
(BTW, maybe the coming G-drive [1] will even replace picasa! To some
extent it already appears Google are trying to make Google+ replace
it. )

A few questions:

1) It is only possible to display fully public stuff with your setup,
yes? Picasaweb also has the option to only show for those who have a
direct link and it has the Public Gallery and Unlisted Gallery
views.
2) For the gallery tiddler call, it appears all album covers are
displayed regardless if I specify an ALBUM_NAME or all
3) How did you create that user name? Mine is only a long number. On
your picasa page, your actual name shows up, not that user name that
you use as an argument in the tiddler call.
4) Album ID.. in deed. Did you do what I did:
right click on the very album page to look at the html code. Search
albumid and find it in a link ...albumid/thisisthenumber then
*drag* it into the tiddler and then cut from. Not purdy..
...However, why is this ID necessay? - why isn't the album *name*
enough, just like when calling for the album gallery? (BTW... did you
code this or is was it part of that package?)

Again, thank you so much Mario!

I embarassedly agree with PMario that we're pushing you and taking

another detail:

I notice way to make a full line not linkify is a blank space at
start. May I suggest minimizing the nomenclature and stick with the ~
sign also here? I.e to not linkify a line it could be a ~ AND a space
(or perpahs  ~:  as in don't linkify the following). I think it
makes more sense mnemonically. It would require to hide the signs used
of course.
...and this would also make sense to expand to full paragraphs with
perhaps something like {{~{...

 Hi Tobias,

 thank you very much for your wonderful plugin! It will save me a lot of
 time and makes TiddlyWiki complete. I hope that this concept would become a
 core element of the next TW release. I think that the WikiWords approach is
 less flexible and easy to use ... and also a bit outdated.

 I'm new to TW and used Tomboy a lot in the past, where automatic
 linkification is the regular way to reference notes, so I missed this
 feature from the beginning.

 I have to test your plugin a little bit further in the next time,
 especially with my imported Tomboy notes which are huge with lots of
 references. I'll give you more feedback in near future.

 I have three suggestions for new features, which would me (and maybe
 others) make VERY happy :)

 1A. a possibility to define global modifiers in LinkifyConfig → EXAMPLE:
 line @@@|@@@s [[@@@ – Discussion]] ... could mean: all tiddlers like
 Wiki, TiddlyWiki, Command, Plugin and so on, would be referenced by
 the words Wikis, TiddlyWikis, Commands, Plugins and also by Wiki –
 Discussion, Command – Discussion ...

 2. a macro which would create an input field in EditTemplate for editing
 aliases of the tiddler (see for example TiddlerAliasPlugin[1]) ... this
 macro could edit the corresponding line in LinkifyConfig → it would
 simplify the whole process

 3A. like in Tomboy[2] → automatic refactoring linkifications after renaming
 a tiddler (a bit complicated and maybe an idea for another plugin) ... to
 avoid unwanted edits: after renaming a tiddler a pop up window could appear
 with a list of tiddlers where the automatic linkifaction changes would be
 applied by LinkifyPlugin → users could exclude those tiddlers where they
 won't these changes to be applied (same solution as in Tomboy)

 OR ... 3B. same as 3A → without editing the linkifications inside tiddlers,
 but rather automatically adding an alias of the renamed tiddler to the
 corresponding line in LinkifyConfig (user would be asked before adding) →
 EXAMPLE: tiddler with the name [[Wiki]] → renamed to [[TiddlyWiki]] → line
 in LinkifyConfig: Wiki → changes to: Wiki|TiddlyWiki OR Wiki|*Wiki→
 after further renaming [[TiddlyWiki]] to [[Wiki – TiddlyWiki]] → line in
 LinkifyConfig changes to: Wiki|TiddlyWiki [[Wiki – TiddlyWiki]] OR
 Wiki|*Wiki [[Wiki – TiddlyWiki]]

 OR ... 3C. a combination of 3A + 3B → the user decides which refactoring
 method would be executed (on a by-tiddler-basis like in 3A?)

 My english is not the best, but I hope you'll understand my suggestions.
 Please ask if not :)

 Kind regards,

2012-04-12 Thread twgrp
Wow, already auto-link for all tiddlers - you're really evolving this!

Some thoughts on syntax:

Both for linkifying multiple words (eg: these multiple words) and for
matching exactly as-is (eg: zoOM not matching Zoom) I suggest using
regular double quotes (...), at least as an additional option to
your current syntax. For one it would be the same syntax for both
these cases but, more importantly, double quotes are somewhat of a
defacto standard to specify exactness and delimit multiple words, eg
in search engines (not to mention literature).
(A minor additional benefit, for the multiple words, is that it would
allow it to be the last word(s) defined also, not forcing the user to
come up with yet another word.)

For suffixes (that is one GREAT feature, btw) it'd be more natural
with the ^ in the end of the word, were all suffixes are added.
And if it could be a * instead of ^ it would again be more natural
although one may mistakenly assume it would include every possible
ending... unless (yet another suggestion):
How about letting the user define the Suffixes in LinkifyConfig?
This is very much desired for non-English users or the suffix feature
is lost. This would also make that * very natural (the user has
defined everything it covers).

Forgive me if I insensitively suggest things that are difficult to
implment. I can imagine it is difficult to work with double quotes etc
in code.

Again, what a wonderful plugin this is becoming Thank you
Tobias!!!

Could you please elaborate a little here. Why would defining the
suffixes in the LinkifyConfig cause different types of configuration
tiddlers? (Or do you mean between different users? Having only English
suffixes literally limits the global usefulnes of it).
An idea would perhaps be a hard coded standard set of suffixes, as
already implementetd, but allowing the user to manually add
additionall ones. Maybe this would not limit the global usability as

2012-04-12 Thread twgrp
Please forget my configurability suggestion, it was a misunderstanding
on my part. (..but, in cased the post at 11:11 was missed, I do think
that zoOM is more natural than 'zoOM ).

Here are some other thoughts:

1) How would you linkify a common multiple word root such as snow
board (snow boarding, snow boarder, snow boarders etc)?

2) Regarding ^ or 0!, if I understand it correctly, the purpose is to
first locally disable the CamelCase linking feature and apply linkify
instead.
If LinkifyPlugin is used, is there actually any need for the CC
linking feature? Please let me explain:
I use CC almost exclusively for one thing, ie. choosing a tiddler name
that AVOIDS forcing me to use [[ ]] later on. That, actually, is
pretty much it. If I didn't have to take this into consideration, I'd
gladly skip it. There is one more common *occurence* of the CC which
is an incidental (accidental?) one -  namely when you write a text and
only later realize that ah, darn, that was apparently a CC word...
gotto add ~. That is CORRECTING a mistake, which is at par with
AVOIDING, if now worse.
...my point? Well, just maybe it makes sense with an option (a
checkbox?) in LInkifyPlugin to turn off CC. If links are automatically
created with linkify, particularly for/to tiddler names, then I see
little point with the whole CC issue. Obviously(?) anyone can still
write things in CC format and if Linkify is later disabled then I
presume the CC feature would be activated again.

 Hello twgrp and PMario,

 The current discussion might be a bit misleading in that I started by using
 the term prefix and now you are talking about suffixes too.

 In fact, these characters are rather meta characters, switches or flags.

 1) They could be configurable since they (currently) do not end up in the
 regex that is used for matching. BUT, I agree with Mario that for
 readability's sake alone this should not be pursued. I believe that it is
 fairly safe to expect people not to use characters like ^  '  * or ~ at the
 beginning or end of either their tiddler titles or the text they want to
 match. If one out of a Million should do this... well, bummer. Perhaps I
 will allow \\ to escape a meta character in order to use it in its literal
 sense.

 2) You are right, Mario. The ^wordroot nomenclature is rather misleading. I
 will therefore change it as you suggest to wordroot* which sure is a lot
 more natural.

 Thus, I would currently vote to change the meta characters like so:

 ^PrependToFormattersArray
 - instead of the ugly prefix 0!

 'MatchLETTERSasis
 - a single quote would trigger matching lower and uppercase letters
 exactly as defined

 config*
 - the new wildcard at the end of the word instead of the beginning

 ~DoNotLinkify
 - to not linkify the first term but only define it as the tiddler to which
 all other terms linkify ...separated by |

 Keep in mind that - at the moment - the wildcard * is only intended to
 serve for word endings.
 It currently is not intended to be used as {wild*card} or {*card} or even
 {*middle*}.
 I might check as to how hard it would be to allow it both at the beginning
 or at the end of a term.

 Eventually, I don't think that these metacharacters should cover the full
 range of what RegEx has in store, because *no one* will want to use that.

 Perhaps, I can imagine another pair of metacharacters like this...

 (any regex you want to be matched)

 Thus, any term wrapped in parentheses is evaluated as a RegEx. However, I
 am not sure that there will be many people that know how to make use of
 that or even want to in the context of LinkifyPlugin.

[tw] Re: NEW: LinkifyPlugin - another improved version of RedirectMacro / AutoWeaving

2012-04-11 Thread twgrp
This looks very interesting and userful! Thank you Tobias!

On a related note (I think?)

The References command only lists tiddlers tagged with the current
tiddler name but totally misses out on tiddlers with the current
tiddlers name as a link in the texts. Ie deleting a tid risks leaving
dead links even if you check out the References first. I find it
surprising that this is not dealt with because what I must assume is
the coding for this ALREADY EXISTS for the Missing tab!

Additionally, default TW behaviour when you delete or rename a tag is
to not take other tiddlers into consideration that are affected by
this. Ie. renaming a tid simply kills tags to it and simply leave them
there! Simon Baird has the great RenameTagsPlugin [1] to solve this -
when you rename a tag (a tiddler name) you're prompted with a question
if you also wish to apply this to those tiddlers where this tag is
used.

Considering how LinkifyPlugin deals with links in the text, it touches
issues related to this. Just maybe you could extend the plugin to
cover these problems, i.e to also update links/tags? Would be very
useful (...and IMO it should even be in the core because what user
would NOT want, and even assume(!) this behavior?!)

[tw] Re: NEW: LinkifyPlugin - another improved version of RedirectMacro / AutoWeaving

2012-04-11 Thread twgrp
Oh, one more idea:

How about an option to automagically make appearences/mentions of
existing tiddlers into links - just like CamelCase words do! And, with
the smooth alternative to add a ~ if one wants to disable it locally.

Again, IMO this feels like the natural and more general case for TW or
any wiki. The CamelCase idea was, I must assume, a compromise to
easily make a link but with your LinkifyPlugin this could potentially
be made more general.

David, this looks great. I like the layout etc. I have a critical
question though:

What happens when original mGSD author releases a new update to mGSD?
Will your stuff be overwritten? I ask because my own integrated

and update etc when new updates come.

Thank you for sharing!

 * Agenda Items
 * Tracked Attendees
 * Meeting-specific Actions
 * Discussion-based notes
 * Quick-view of project status

 These have been tightly integrated with existing mGSD dashboards, in
 keeping with the elegance of Simon's tool.

 I've also included a number of interface cleanups and layout
 enhacements to the standard mGSD, which I hope you will find useful:

 -- mGSD / GTD tweaks:

 * Due-dates for Actions (rather than converting to Ticklers)
 * Recurring Projects (for those repetitive sets of tasks like tax
 preparation, etc.)
 * Updated Project statuses
 * Better dashboard layout and grouping (in my opinion, change in
 TagDashboards to your liking) and urgent/overdue-item highlighting

 -- TW / layout tweaks:

 * Settings in one place:
        * Click on the Tiddlers tab on the right, and the Misc:Options
 subtabs.
 * Better use of screen space:
        * Click on the fullscreen icon beside the word upload at the
 top right.
        * Click on the __ toolbar button to collapse, and the [] to
 uncollapse Tiddlers
 * Better toolbar layout, and decisions on when to show it
 * Scroll-To-Top arrow at bottom-right of Tiddlers
 * Notes on all plain Tiddlers, and multi-comment discussions (by
 adding the discussion tag)

[tw] Re: TypeError in MachineGun

2012-01-04 Thread twgrp
Thanks so much for answering Mario!

I made the demo as clean as possible to avoid involving my convoluted
mGSD because because it has deteriorated over the years [1]. So I
can't really say what I've done over the years.

I think the MachineGun is, or at least should be, independent of the
mGSD-system though. I've used a fresh mGSD (from tiddlyspot) and
except for the MachineGun-necessary plugins I've only imported the
example Projects from Mr. Bairds mGSD demo at http://mgsd.tiddlyspot.com/#Demo

By the way, the password is 'password' if anyone wants to change
things.

 config.act is undefined. So may be some initialisation is missing.
 The code is very near the top of the labeled script.

I did find this a bit further down (under headline /**ACTION**/ )
 config.act=acts[j][0].title;

...is this a definition/initialization?

Thank you!



[1] Clarification: mGSD is a specific application, as opposed to TW
which is generic. The advantage with TW is of course that it is easy
to modify, but personalizing tiddlers that are (mGSD) system specific
makes updates problematic. Years of use means pdates update ALL
tiddlers, ie it is not possible to tell which specific ones have been
updated. This has made me give up on mGSD many times. But because I'm
so fond of TW I find myself hoping to find a solution. Because the
MachineGun, which should be mGSD-system-independent, is so important
to me I'm willing to start over with a clean mGSD if I can just get
this to work.
years of use/modications, in combination with gradual updates, have
made it deteriorate

 The whole thing seems to be a bit fragile, because if tiddler MindSet

 Short info, why it fails:

 if (story.getTiddler(config.act)) {

 story.getTiddler() expects a valid tiddler. config.act is undefined,
 so the system throws an error message.
 we can modify the if () statement, to check the existence of
 config.act. If it is falsy, don't touch story.getTiddler.

 eg:
 if (config.act  story.getTiddler(config.act)) {
  do stuff

 }

 It checks, if config.act contains a value _different to_ undefined
 null false
 since config.act is undefined, it stopps executing story.getTiddler()
 it skips the do stuff and goes on with the programm

 
 If the programm looks like this, it does something. But as i don't
 know, what it should do, I'm not sure, if this fixes it.
 This fix (if it is one) is just fighting the symptoms. It may not fix
 the init problem.

Why do people keep replying with not-so-relevant issues? Other than
the general reference to UnaMesa's cut down budget, Eric clearly
states that:

From a personal perspective, the problem is simple: in order to
continue providing full-time support to the worldwide TiddlyWiki

from UnaMesa,

TW *becomes* what is made of it (a few years ago it didn't even exist)
so little point in discussing that in this thread. Eric is one of the
willing makers of TW - but the issue here and now is purely
FINANCIAL.

Other than a direct contribution to http://www.TiddlyTools.com/#Donations
I think it makes sense to discuss more general solutions to this and
this is why I brainstormed about simplifying tipping and contributions
in my earlier post here.

[tw] Re: On Leaving BT and Osmosoft

2011-11-10 Thread twgrp
First, I wish you all the best!

Second, a few questions :-) They are a mixed bag of questions, where
answering one may cancel out others so I'll just present them in a
pile:

Could you or someone explain a little about the ownership of TW and
it's various forms? I mean, as a regular user I see a risk of things
forking apart when the key developer goes his own way. What of TW is
left at BT? Will proprietary issues arise (BT owns Osmosoft, right) -
or is all things TW property of UnaMesa? Are there intentions (at
least from your side) to keep things compatible? As a general user, I
use vanilla TW but also many tiddlyspaces. Are you involved in the
latter?

...and, any elaboration on what making TW good means in your
perspective, ie. what would your focus be (browser compatability,
mobile focus, features, easier for newcomers, more commercial
designs, ...?) Hope this is not rude of me to ask but because you are
such a key individual for TW and it is a tool I use it would simply be
valuable to get a sense of direction. (I think this question becomes
extra pressing when it comes to open source projects driven by
individuals. When you have a commercial tool like, say, a Windows or
an Apple product, then you know the focus for them is to make the
products as user friendly and as commercially powerful as possible,
very carefully listening to the user needs. Not necessarily so with
open source of course.)

Again, all best!!!

 I'm hoping that through consulting I'll be able to work with a wider

 Once those two bits of infrastructure are in place then I'll pick up
 TiddlyWiki5 again. I'm enjoying this work immensely; one of the
 frustrating consequences of my position at BT was that I couldn't
 spend much time coding.

 I'm enjoying the feeling of decompressing. To be sincere and
 constructive in working for an organisation like BT, you have to take
 on the problems and perspective of the organisation as a whole. The
 process is fascinating and instructive, and I've learned a lot from
 it. But now I have the luxury of exchanging those concerns for some
 much simpler ones: making TiddlyWiki good, and being able to earn a
 living because of it.

 I'll do my best to answer any questions,

[tw] Re: Important Message from Eric

2011-11-09 Thread twgrp
I just added some to the tip jar.
Having gone back and forth to TW over the years I've met so much
generosity in this community, but Eric is truly in a class by himself.

BTW, regarding contributions, I found this service a while back:
http://flattr.com/
It has a different, hmm, slice to it. Briefly, you decide *in advance*
how much you want to spend on contributions for that month. If flattr-
button A is clicked 10 times, button B 4 times and button C 1 time -
then, at the end of the month, A gets 10/15 of the whole sum , B gets
4/15 and C 1/15. I think it is a perfect concept for a community.

Another note regarding contributions, especially for super
contributors such as Eric:
I've long missed a central place dealing with all things tiddly. I
believe the problems mentioned in this thread are much due to a
lacking central effort (ie, the info/plugin/etc often exists...but
where?) Attempts solving parts of this, or even all of this, have been
made [1] but non quite succesful yet. IF there was such a place,
including eg. a discussion board or a knowledge wiki and [links to]
plugins, we could include something like the above mentioned
flattr.com solution in the templates for *every* post made and every
[link to] a plugin! Instead of eg. adding stars to a post, one could
voluntarily click for a little contribution (and without going through
the paypal hassle every time).

Heck, what about UnaMesa hosting a regular PayPal account that the
users voluntarily could pay into in advance to then 'distribute' as
per the flattr idea? If we had such a central place, I imagine it
should be an easy task to make a flattr-like local plugin. Then, as
per the flattr idea, at the end of the month (or other fequency?)
there is an automated payout into the receivers paypal accounts. You
know, I wouldn't even mind seeing an individual like Eric setting up a
private account where I could put in a little money that can then -
flattr like - be automatically distributed on eg a monthly basis to
*other* contributors paypal accounts. (Someone as established in the
community and so incredibly generous would likely not suddenly
disappear). Or maybe the team behind tiddlyweb/tiddlyspace which
seems to be the ideal place for a central community site.

Yet an idea would be to host such a flattr-type button in (some) very
plugins! It would bring the contribution out much more in the open and
remind people as they fiddle with their TW's. Note that if the user
has not pre-paid anything, then pressing such a button does not result
in anything so he has nothing to worry about. For someone like Eric,
an idea would be a flattr type plugin that, when installed by the
user, creates a button in the head for all other ELS plugins that the
user has installed, and when pressed it executes... etc.
This concept would not solve the potential wish to tip for verbal
contributions, such as here on the board, but maybe it's a step in the
right direction and worthy of a try?

Come to think of it, TW ought to have a backstage tiddler showing
statistics ranking the frequency of use for the plugins, or rather the
names of the plugin creators - and possibly a donation button next to
each (My goodness, this guy has contributed to x% of my general TW
use!? He deserves a little click here!)


Further ideas:
A polling type system. When experts share their knowledge here or in
the form of plugins there is a risk that they only serve a few, or
even one, individual. A poll e.g regarding which plugins to develop
should increase the chances for contributions and tips by serving many
at a time. Would be perfect for a central community type place but
also possible as a stand alone (perhaps on tiddlyspace).

An extension of this would be collective fund raising type tipping
solution. I started writing an explanation for this here but decided
that I'll let you think about it yourself because it would involve
some intricacies that I believe had better 'mature in the head' before
discussed. Just one thing though; Do recall that contributions are
voluntary to begin with, as is putting in dev time. Also, if the money
were to be placed with an intermediary host as suggested above, then
it wold again merely be a matter for the 'user' to decide how to
*distribute* money that is *already* given for contributions! (Eg. I
put in X dollars and then click 5 times on issue #6, 2 times on #12
and 1 time on #4)


I've seen other places such as, hm, was it the discussion boards for
phpBB or MyBB (they are open source forum software) where individuals
offer their professional services for solving specific issues and
prioritizing the individuals that contribute monetarily to them.
Obviously charging money does not need to restrict the open source
nature of the resulting code. (BTW their discussion forums use their
own forum software)

 It seems that TiddlyWiki is hard for some people to get their heads

 about TiddlyWiki we might be able to make it easier for others to

 purpose it is not always obvious how it can be used until you see how
 it is being used by others.

I would think there is a difference in
1) creating interest about TW and
2) have them get their heads around it.
...and I'd say the distinction is particularly crucial for TW because
it, as you mention, is so general. I think people typically don't
bother to begin to climb the TW threshold (i.e #2 above) unless it
appears intersting and *relevant* to them.

For this reason I think it is key to showcase things that people can
identify with, and I would therefore suggest using this as a starting
point for (thus leading) questions to be used in such a showcase.
Perhaps:

* In which way is TW your personal wikipeida?
* Which every day projects do you use TW for?
* For what tasks do you prefer TW when there are other alternatives,
and why?
* What was your first TW about? Why did you create a second one?
* What makes using TW fun?
* What makes using TW valuable?
* Who ought to use TW?

...etc, provoking answers from us that people hopefully feel are
relevant and of value.

May I suggest two alternative routes;
Either;
copy only the ViewTemplate part from the MPTWtheme tiddler
...or, since you're starting fresh;
use MPTW straight off. It is IMO the best and most user friendly set-
up. The most easy way is via
http://www.tiddlyspot.com and just choose MPTW

Because it is at tiddlyspot it also lets you upload and download it as
you wish.

A fresh copy of MPTW works as well with FF.

If you create a new tiddler say Test1 and tag it with Test, do you see

And when you click on the tag Test opens the tiddler Test?
If yes, do you see Tagged as 'Test': in the tiddler Test? And to the

 be cool to get some different perspectives on that.

 Here are the questions I've come up with so far:

 - How many TiddlyWikis have you created? How many do you use regularly?
 - How did you first discover TiddlyWiki?
 - How has the TiddlyWiki community helped you?
 - How have you been able to contribute back to the TiddlyWiki community?
 - How many other people have you introduced to TiddlyWiki? How many of
 them have gone on to use it regularly?
 - What is the most annoying thing about using TiddlyWiki?
 - Which plugins do you rely on the most?
 - What do you think of the name TiddlyWiki and the term tiddler?

 I'm guessing that the art of email interviews is to try to phrase the
 questions to discourage simple yes/no answers; I'm not sure I've done
 that very well,

2010-10-19 Thread twgrp
Thanks for your reply!

What you say about best way to put up plugins on tspace, i.e separate
plugin and demo
- and -
both your ideas on how to deal with inadvertant namesquatting, i.e by
introducing tiddlyspace as special username to add,  and dealing
with orphans by having Osmosoft adopting them until contacted by
claimant or similar.

...makes a lot of sense.

A note about the specific username tiddlyspace - there is a space
named tiddlyspace. Maybe it is run by Osmosoft? It does look somewhat
'official'. If not, it may cause some confusion and perhaps some other
special username is preferred. Whichever user name it ends up being,
may I humbly suggest that it is associated with a space and that these
best (or recommended) practices are stated and explained there.

I've personally set up a few plugins [1] on tiddlyspace today
(publically available) and will await some type of official statement
from Osmosoft on exactly what to do - alternatively some request from
the original creator of those plugins (@ELS) - before I 'add a member'
or whatever is decided/requested.


 I'm interested in making it possible for externally hosted static
 TiddlyWiki files to participate on TiddlySpace, by setting up some
 sort of proxy/alias space. So for example, jeremy.tiddlyspace.com
 might be equivalent to content stored in a static TiddlyWiki 
 athttp://jeremystiddlywiki.com/

You mean so that externally hosted, say, plugins can be used in
tiddlyspace by inclusion? Sounds great! Semi-related; I think adding
plugins to tiddlyspace will be much simplified when inclusion of
individual tiddlers becomes possible. (Oooh, me want, me want!)

[tw] tspace inclusion: ABC != AC ?

2010-10-19 Thread twgrp
A includes B which includes C which contains public tiddler T

Is is corrent that B can find T but A cannot?

...even if the 'includer' (i.e the actual person) is a member of all,
and possibly even the creator of all?

What are thes reasons for this?

I can imagine that it makes for very big inclusions with many
tiddlers or lists of what is included where, but it also means a
that B appears great, so I include it in A... but, no, the greatness
of B didn't transfer into A which was the very purpose of including B
to begin with.

...which also gives incentives to copying rather than including,
losing out an important aspect of tspace as far as I can tell.

Anyone in the know care to comment?

(Whichever the rules are, I humbly suggest they are stated wherever
inclusion is explained such as
http://docs.tiddlyspace.com/#[[How%20do%20I%20include%2Fexclude%20spaces%3F]]
)

[tw] @Osmosoft ethical brigades

2010-10-18 Thread twgrp
I must test out a few plugins created by others. I want to test them
separately, i.e on default spaces, and include them if they fulfill my
needs.

Is it OK to simply create a space with an established plugin name and
put up that plugin there? The question is probably more about the name
napping aspect than the right to (re-)publish it. I understand it is
legally OK but with the creation of tiddlyspace we're on unchartered
waters regarding best practice, what will maximize the benefit of the
community and TW etc.

It is also an issue because a plugin (or any code), published for
inclusion on tiddlyspace - but not by the creator -  will eventually
get outdated and tiddlyspace users will continue to use it. And if the
original author is not the space creator then he may not be able to
update it even if he wants to. I know of at least one prominent plugin
author who earlier has expressed annoyance when people copy plugins
from other sources than the original only to get an outdated one and
then complain about it. This phenomenon is likely to increase on
tiddlyspace if not dealt with.

Maybe this will be solved with some kind of webcrawling thingy,
locating and converting existing remode plugins to tiddlyspace ones
(and either update existing ones or creating a new space for it) but
for now I see problems looming.

Maybe an intermediate solution like including the original author as a
member will suffice? (But one must know his tspace name... Maybe
backstage could list at least the more prominent coders names?) Or
maybe a clause stating that creators have a right to contact Osmosoft
and gain access to code that is exclusively written by them (i.e
single plugin spaces) and using their established plugin name?

(To some extent I guess this is also a call for creators to publish
their used-by-others-stuff on tiddlyspace.)

Thank you.

could be included in the community site to fill up the Showroom

community site is the communitys to develop. Also, the purpose of
showroom may not be quite the same as the purpose of the showroom

be more a tribute to TW titans in general.) But, I can only speak from
the community space view, where the idea is to have anyone put in
information and the community voting etc.

Generally, the community space is aimed at handling the exact problem
you address; there is so much redundance in the dispersed TW community

 For me they are somehow related. All of them want to have many

 tiddlyworld.

 I think:

 Showroom menue in tiddlyworld space can link to showroom space.
 Otherwise there will be duplicates. Even include can be a possibility.
 But please no iframes. I do have a good resolution, but there is not
 enough space on the screen to do this.

 tiddlyworld is an absolutly cool name for the project described in
 tiddlyworld space. May be the existing example/dev content can be
 copied to a dev space, to get tiddlyworld back for its real content.
 But pleas use only one dev space.

[tw] the Community space

2010-10-14 Thread twgrp
Formerly known under a different name, the Community space is
unfolding. We now have;

http://community.tiddlyspace.com
- intended to be more or less a one-stop-shop community portal
and
http://communityweb.tiddlyspace.com
- for development issues concerning the community portal

Neither is ready for use yet, so your input is greatly
appreciated! :-)


Picking up from an earlier conversation Tobias replied to some
questions of mine:

  Would it fulfill its purpose as more or less a one-stop-shop community site?

 If it were designed for that purpose, it might. Not to be nitpicking,
 but the menu as it is now does not give that impression.

Hm, what do you suggest to change? I do agree the graphics are
amateurish, but menu content?

 As for community features, though possibly not the most welcome solution, it
 might be best to have them run on some external services, things like

But don't you think our needs are possible to solve with TW? One great
benefit would be direct links to whatever you reference. Plus we would
be in full control of it.

I can see benefit in iframing (as you suggest) but for this very
google group that is established and that has archived posts.
Introducing a new forum software would lose out both on the TW linking
and the TW self containment and on the archive aspect. And the easy
customization.

Is there something not possible with TW?

But iframing this google group and perhaps some kind of suggestion
with voting thing as an intermediary solution (instead of static
images), sure!

 Another way might be to have those notes or comments on content in
 TiddlyWorld work similar to the Talks section in my Space...(see
 What everyone says right now...).

YEAH! Are the conversations imported or are they taking place in
your space? Does/can it have the same features as, say, this google
group? You mention a tScan macro to fetch all comments - from where?
Do you think you could add this to the community site?

...
 A good question would be how to simplify user interaction, so that one
 would only have to click some button to be able to post a note in ones
 own space, ... e.g.http://myspace.tiddlyspace.com/#[[TiddlyWorld -
 title of the page]].

(Haha, someone nicked myspace!) I can't quite find any post button
there though. There is very little content at that site (or maybe I
need to be a member to see anything?)

 In order to make that work properly it would be
 good if there were global, user specific variables in tiddlyspace
 which would allow one to define ones own comments-space to be be used
 for taking notes and comments in TiddlyWorld and which could be used
 for creating the link that opens your space with a new, not existing
 tiddler, already given the proper name, maybe including the current
 contents of that page in a blockquote... just like the reply button
 does today.

Yes! Do I understand you right in that this is a request that must be
made to the tiddlyspace dev team? Or would it be a separate plugin
thing? Regardless... it is beyond me.

 On the other hand... notes or even a forum using TypeWith.Me seem a
 really appealing and painless variant.

It even looks TW'ish. However, it seems to address something totally
different, i.e live text collaboration. I'm not sure how that is
relevenat - or am I just not imaginative enough? When would that type
of live collaboration be relevant? And are you saying it should be
instead of a forum? I don't understand.

 Why does a dropdown menue discussion cause tiddlyworld to be splitted ?

The discussion is clearly misnamed by now, but anyway;
It was split because it became unsustainable to use the site itself as
the development place for the site. I guess one could say the mixup of
the real thing with the meta aspects got confusing. Although I admit
it is an experimental process.

 There are:
 1)tiddlyworld ..
 2)community ..
 3)communitydev ..

I will try to erase tiddlyworld. I hope the distinction between 2 and
3 will get clearer as I clean them up a little. BTW, I've added you as
a member so feel free to do whatever you feel is good. (You do mention
that you like the name tiddlyworld... are you saying it's better
than community? I felt that particularly newbies get confused enough
as it is with all them tiddlyshmiddlys (tiddlywiki, tiddler,
tiddlyspace, tiddlyspot...). I wanted the name to be neutral
particularly since the URL already contains the t word. Also, I kind
of like the idea that the name refers to what it is and that it rides
on an established term the tiddlywiki community.

 4)showroom ..
 5)semantic ..

I don't quite see how you include 'semantic' in this list (it has a
very different purpose, no?). Showroom is something that I imagine
could be included in the community site to fill up the Showroom
section there but we're not quite there yet - if it is to happen at
all. Showroom is solely Tobias project (as far as I know) whereas the
community site is the communitys to develop. Also, the purpose of
showroom may not be quite the same as the purpose of the showroom
section in the community site in spite of the striking similarity in
names ;-)

 For me they are somehow related. All of them want to have many
 contributors. Some of them deal with the same topics. eg: showroom and
 tiddlyworld.

You know, you have a point in that the Showroom for the community
space may be superfluous as the Downloads section kind of serves the
same thing! I'm removing the Showroom section in the community space,
for now.

However, I was not aware of Tobias ambitions to have people contribute
to his showroom space though. (The contributors list there seem to
be more a tribute to TW titans in general.) But, I can only speak from
the community space view, where the idea is to have anyone put in
information and the community voting etc.

Generally, the community space is aimed at handling the exact problem
you address; there is so much redundance in the dispersed TW community
and you don't know where to find stuff. Look at all the admirable and
good hearted plugin compilations for instance. It is impossible for
the poor individual behind those TWs to keep them up to date and there
is no possibility for the community to e.g rank the plugins or comment
on them etc in those TWs. Hopefully the benefits with a central and
collaborative compiling reference place will be evident soon.


Great objections - it helps define the concept!

[tw] Re: the Community space

2010-10-14 Thread twgrp
 As I wrote in the other post about tiddlyworld main menu. Please keep
 the tiddlyworld space for the real content and move its existing
 dev/example content into an other space. I think the name
 tiddlyworld is much cooler than community or communityweb.

(As replied in that other thread;
I felt that particularly newbies get confused enough
as it is with all them tiddlyshmiddlys (tiddlywiki, tiddler,
tiddlyspace, tiddlyspot...). I wanted the name to be neutral
particularly since the URL already contains the t word. Also, I kind
of like the idea that the name refers to what it is and that it rides
on an established term the tiddlywiki community.
...but I do agree; tiddlyworld is a *cooler* name, but...!)


One-stop-shop; you're of course right. The aim is not to omit the need
for other spaces. The community site is intended to be one-stop in
that you'll should be able to *find* those other spaces and places not
least via references. 'Including' will likely be used a lot as well as
standard links.

iframing an external forum vs a TW build one;

 The comments plugin works quite well with tiddlyspace. It could be
 used. But there is the disadvantage of easy spamming, because everyone
 needs to have write access to the groups space.
 If you reply to a topic at the moment, you write to your own space and
 the descussion software collects the topics. If you produce spam,
 then you only spam your own account. For the others disabling a
 spammer is easy. Delete the follow tag, or delete the spammersName
 tiddler.  Done

Would that construction be viable for the community site?
Regarding spam, I think tiddlyspace is still so unknown that it should
be a minor problem. (Do we get spamming in here for example? This
google group is not moderated as far as I know, or? )


(I must cut my reply here to go to bed, but figured I should reply
quickly to your initial questions here at least.)


Great input!!!

[tw] Re: tiddlyworld - how dropdown in MainMenu

2010-10-13 Thread twgrp
 As for the modified PopupMacro... I believe that it might just be the
 best way to go. [...]

I'm taking Tobias word for it and implemented popup macro - see result
in http://tiddlyworld.tiddlyspace.com
We should definitely update when Tobias new version comes.

To smoothify testing I suggest using MainMenu merely as a wrapper
(correct term?), i.e by tiddler MainMenu_popup. Using Tobias'
section reference idea made MainMenu_popup pretty compact.

Maybe wrapping, i.e using tiddler macro in the actual tiddler
merely to point to things, is a good idea to use *generally* for
collaboration? (and to  name the various suggestions on the format
OriginalName_xxx)? This is to help keep up concensus in the
development process of this, i.e so that things agreed on don't just
change arbitrarily. (Yes, we are on unchartered territory with this
democratic managmement form)

In the MainMenu_popup I revised some of the terms for the subitems
into;
* Current - (unchanged) to show current solution
* Notes - as a place where visitors can add notes, suggestions, ideas,
regarding the section
* PleaseHelp - intended to list the next things to implement, named
PleaeHelp so to encourage participation
(any opinions on this?)

I'm thinking of making the superior WhatsNext? tiddler into an
aggregate of all those PleaesHelp tiddlers. Opinions?

Obviously anyone is welcome to improve any-/everything.

consensus... democratic forum...

Well, I hope it will evolve into something that has a life of it's

wish some TW authority such as Osmosoft saw the value in this.

 Maybe addHelp sounds a bit less begging?

I agree it's less begging... but then again, I *am* begging. I changed
it to Contribute - better? (I don't think addHelp is very clear.)
If you like it, I'll change the names of the associated tiddlers also
(damn, this is where your automation ideas should come in handy...)

 I was wondering if we should implement/embed all videos on Vimeo

GREAT idea!!! To not overcrowd the MainMenu, I'm thinking of putting a
Help section there and move both the videos and the Wiki section into
it. Will do soon.

 Maybe we should include bookmarkplugin  http://bookmarks.tiddlyspace.com/

2010-10-13 Thread twgrp
Tobias -

dammit - I started writing, objecting to your idea about a separate
dev site... but the more I think about it... you're right, LOL!

However, is there an agreement that tiddlyworld (I guess primarily the
MainMenu) encompasses what sections should be included? Would it
fulfill its purpose as more or less a one-stop-shop community site? It
would be very unfortunate to have community members using it only to
later change things and see their previous engagement (such as posts)
lost.

There is one thing I do want to see - but please tell me why I'm
wrong;

I find it frustrating to not be able to tell TW's (and I guess
websites in general) when something is not good or if I have an idea
that I believe would benefit them. I think it is close related to the
mere need to express oneself which of course is the base for the whole
social internet craze. For this reason, however tiddlyworld is
manifested, it should be very easy to comment on stuff. And 'easy'
probably means the option to do so while it's in front of you as
opposed to; interrupting your work, going over to the Forum section
or the Ideas section, explaining what it is you're referring to, 
This was the purpose of the Notes tiddlers, but I'm sure it can be
manifested in much better ways. Maybe every single tiddler, i.e the
template of it, has a slider with a comments field? (Hmm, that's
actually interesting!)

Anyway, the point is to really try to predict needs that may arise...
TiddlySpace does open for new possibilities.

Thoughts?

:-)

For 1), yes I know of the backstage member listing, but the idea was
to be able to present members more prominently and perhaps also
manipulate such a list - Tobias Beer - theme creator, ...

For 2) yeah... I was hoping there was some smooth integrated way,
maybe via those discussion plugins of late. Do they all require that
you're already a member to be able to add something? (Those star-
rating plugins lets user rating be saved without any loggin in, no?
I've never used one, in tw)

...and a third yes; for the moment I agree only established members
should be added, but then again, I think only established members have
tiddlyspaces. It is still pretty much hidden from the world I would
say. (Should you, or anyone, see any inappropriate name in the member
list, feel free to delete it. After all, we are only 3 people
contributing so far so the others merely serve as invitations.)

If I understand you guys right, there is currently no perfect

Also note that as things evolve I think we'll want other 'level two
content' which may differ from menu item to menu item. (I mean,
considering the intended democratic nature of tworld, the content
there should be a consensus and the static Current/Notes/Proposed
may not hold.) (But I do love the concept of having things added
dynamically to the various menu levels simply by tagging.) BTW,
searching for why twv[2] doesn't work, maybe the space in the first

I alerted ELS (i.e creator of http://tiddlytools.com/#NestedSlidersPlugin
) but I suspect the error lies in TiddlySpace since that plugin is
very mature.

Any suggestions?

Thank you!

[tw] tiddlyworld - how dropdown in MainMenu

2010-10-10 Thread twgrp
For the community site, http://tiddlyworld.tiddlyspace.com/

(...that I'm thrilled to see that you guys are joining in to improve!
- Tobias, it looks AWESOME now!)

I'm trying to make a small dropdown menu for each MainMenu section.
Attempts include;

DropDownMenuPlugin [1];
http://tiddlyworld.tiddlyspace.com/#DropDownMenuDemo
...but that plugin makes menu items too wide for MainMenu though. And

NestedSlidersPlugin [2]
http://tiddlyworld.tiddlyspace.com/#MainMenu_NSP
...but I'm not sure NSP works correctly with TiddlySpace because the
floating tiddler is displayed some 2-3 inches too low down! I'm
raising this issue separately [3]

- however my question is generally if you have any 'best solution' to
easily make a drop down menu of that kind that can be put into
MainMenu. Also, because tiddlyworld is open for all to improve, it
should be fairly straight on.

Thanks

:-)

[tw] Re: Revised Default Theme for TiddlySpace

2010-09-29 Thread twgrp
Some thoughts:

* In GettingStarted the mentions of TiddlySpace are dead linkl.
Unfortunate for a 'core' TW, not to mention for the welcoming tiddler.
* Also, on the GettingStarted it reads MainMenu [...] on the *left*
* The SiteIcon name/upload fields are not elegantly laid out, unevenly
like that.
* Great first impression of the color scheme, but the tabs box is
another color. Would look better if the gradient comes from same blue.
* (...and the *default* colors for edit mode are a bit funny, most of
all too dark)
* (BTW, am I the only one always getting Error saving ColorPalette:
Forbidden unless manually open into edit mode and saving? Perhaps an
issue for a separate thread.)
* Also the Following bubble would look better if lighter.
* That gradient box could be used as the separator between tiddlers
instead of the thin but dark blue line currently seen on the top of
the tiddlers. The tabs box could have the gradient going from blue (at
bottom) to white, omitting the need for a top separator.
* (Since you're positive to using gradients for the tabs, perhaps the
whole top field or the MainMenu could be a (vertical) gradient? Design
wise core TW has always been a bit stiff so a gradient here makes it a
little more designy but still neutral.)
* The search box could be a little further down (e.g as in Tobias
demo).

 Thanks for all the great feedback. I've been revising lattice with

 tiddlyspace has to offer at the present and I will continue to
 optimise it as it matures.
 It doesn't introduce any new theming conventions so it should still be
 super easy to take this theme and make it your own, in whatever way
 you please.
 In fact, it would be great if you did that so that there is a whole
 host of themes available for new users to choose from.

 Osmosoft are planning to deploy this tomorrow which will affect some
 of the tiddlers in the system-theme space.
 For those of you wishing to add your own touches there will be one new
 tiddler, called StyleSheetColattice.

 When it gets deployed Osmosoft will provide details on a way to opt
 out of it for those that want to.

 Please take a look and let me know what you think, plus get in touch
 if you foresee any issues with the deployment.

[tw] (TSpace faq) Protect tiddlers from overwriting when including?

2010-09-21 Thread twgrp
Related to a previous question[1], Is it possible to protect
individual tiddlers when including another space that will otherwiser
overwrite the current ones, such as themes etc? How do I best control
to keep a theme?

Actually, generally, what happens when included spaces have tiddlers
with the same name as tiddlers in my space? Is there a priority
order segregating between e.g system tiddlers and content tiddlers?
And, perhaps even more fine grained division for the system tiddlers
(as can be found under the includes tag)?

Thanks

 Why bloating your template with input fields in order to enter a title
 and then hit new as opposed to hitting new and then entering a title
 while also being able to input contents and tags? Is it that you just
 want to create an empty tiddler called xyz without further editiing it
 right away? ...that would indeed save an extra step, but add another
 if you actually did want to enter some content and tags, as you'd have
 at least one more additional click to open the tiddler in edit-mode.

 Besides, as Anthony suggested, that functionality is already present
 in GotoPlugin ...which is my default for searching tiddler titles and

 The core tw is the same. 2.6.1. So I think, there will be no big
 difference.
 TiddlyWeb has some new functions. Since most of them are hijacking
 other system functions (save, load, delete, copy from one bag to
 another ...), they will be slightly slower.

 But most of the new functions are handling loading and saving to the
 web.
 If you compare this with eg: TiddlySpot, which has to upload/save a
 single big file everytime an update needs to be stored to the web.
 TiddlyWeb is much faster now ~300ms saving only the changed tiddler
 (depending on your internet connection).

 I also think/hope, that at the moment, the primary focus is
 functionality and usability. Serverside speed is allready a focus
 [1].

 Clientside, there are also some new functions working with svg images.
 If you are using a lot of them at the same time, rendering will be
 measurable slower, because there is more to do :)

  For a complex TW
  with many tables of forEachTiddler's etc, is there any advantage
  with one or the other?

  :-)

 I don't think so :) forEachTiddler is a loop, that handles every
 tiddler, everytime it is executed. The more tiddlers, the more to do.
 So eliminating/simplifying unneeded commands will help. eg: a loop
 inside fET. Or reusing known information instead of calculating it
 every time. But I'm not an expert about fET, because I don't use it.

 I did set up a little Performance measurement routine[2], which needs
 InlineJavaSriptPlugin. RefreshTiddler plugin will be helpful.

 hope this helps
 have fun!

[tw] (att: TSpace) Identifying missing source for copied macro calls.

2010-08-12 Thread twgrp
A problem when including/copying a limited set of tiddlers that
contain macro calls is that you might not have included the tiddlers
with the macro definitions and this causes errors.

Here's an idea for this, particularly for something like TiddlySpace,
where there's talk about not including plugins by default due to risk
of malicious code (i.e safety risk being on the server side, if I
understand it right):

The idea is to let the user take the risk locally;

Say you include a foreign space (F) and get errors per above. A
plugin, in your own space, could(?) save the names of the missing
macros and crawl/spider through F to locate the tiddler names where
these macros are defined. This is the identification part. If the
server doesn't have a safety issue then it's obviously just a matter
to include that plugin also.

Otherwise, such as for TSpace, the user can choose to import F or only
those particular plugins to his *local* computer, into a TW designated
to carry such risky tiddlers.

I'm wondering if there is a way to then have the TSpace macro call
tiddler fetch info from that local file or if that would be a safety
issue again. It would at least prevent plugins from running on
initialization but would it pose a (big enough) threat even if it just
processed macro calls externally?

(Or maybe my thougths don't make sense at all. I'm no programmer.)

[tw] Re: TSpace faq: How include only individual tiddlers?

 The upshot, for now, is that the onus is on the respective space members

 plugins, themes and content.

Aha, interesting.
I understand that for security resons plugins are intended not to be
included by default though. (Should be simple since they're always
sysCon tagged).

For granularization, an idea would be an export or split type plugin
so that it is easy to split TW's by sending off e.g theme tiddlers or
sets of tiddlers to another (or new) separate space.

Or just maybe there is a way to map out which tiddlers are related to
one another, so that it is easy for the owner to separate, or a
visitor to include, only the relevant ones.

I asked elsewhere if it was possible to deduce which plugin that is
referred to from a macro call (so that if you copy tiddlers you know
why it doesn't function and which plugin that is missing) but the
brief answer was no. However, I have a thought a little and come up
with the following:

[tw] TSpace faq: How include only individual tiddlers?

2010-08-08 Thread twgrp
Unless I misunderstand something, including a space resets the 'local
layout' to the layout of that last included space. I'd assume this is
not typically desired. Or, more generally, various undesired tiddlers
are included also.

Is there a way to include only individual tiddlers? Or sets of
tiddlers?

[tw] Sandbox or similar for tiddlyspace/faq/... (att: psd)

2010-08-07 Thread twgrp
psd (whom I believe it associated with UnaMesa or at least core
developmen, yes?) has generously put up
http://faq.tiddlyspace.com
http://tiddlyspace.tiddlyspace.com/
http://glossary.tiddlyspace.com/
...and maybe even more of public interest.

For psd - and/or whomever does something similar - may I suggest some
possibility for visitors to give comments. (Or do I misunderstand
something - maybe this is already possible?) Could be a sandbox but I
guess the very best thing would be a way to comment individual
tiddlers and some kind of tag or something so all such comments can be
found easily. But really any possibility is better than none. IMO.

[tw] TreeViewPlugin - how put newHere next to each menu item

2010-08-01 Thread twgrp
[posted on TW Dev some time ago, but no response. Hoping for better
luck here.]

I like the TreeViewPlugin [1] for a hierarchical tree structure menu,
but would like for  a newTiddler type button to appear next to each
item in the tree menu, to easily create new correctly tagged items.

I've located where to put it, but I don't know how to 'phrase' the
macro there so it works - about 3 inches / 1 decimeter up from the
bottom at:
http://treeview.tiddlyspot.com/#TreeviewPluginPlugin2
...is the line:
rtn = rtn +/ul\n ;

Q1) Various attempts to insert a the macro call do not work. I don't
know how to phrase a macro call there or if that is somply the wrong
way all together.

Q2) Actually, it's not the core newTiddler macro I wish to use but
newHere macro from the NewHerePlugin [2]. This creates a new tiddler
but tagged with the name of the tiddler from where the macro was
invoked, thus resulting in it being correctly presented in the tree
menu. I'm guessing this affects how the macro should be called,
containing the name of the menu item to be rendered. There are no
instructions in the plugin itself so I don't know how to do this.

Thank you!

...or, my pref. layout: http://twt-treeview-executive.tiddlyspot.com/

[tw] Re: Tiddlyspace - Why only lowercase for space name?

2010-08-01 Thread twgrp
Ok, I understand now. Thanks.

  When registering for a new profile, with the intention of creating a
  blog, I wanted to use my name... but apparently it must be all lower
  case. Can't really see why?

 The primary reason is that we need spaces to be valid hostnames (for the
 subdomain; e.g. foo.tiddlyspace.com), and we don't want to have to deal
 with the trouble of having both uppercase and lowercase letters.
 This might change in the future, but it's not currently a priority

  Also, detail suggestion: Instead of using the word Register, I
  suggest e.g Create profile or Desired space name or some such. IMO
  the word register is associated with giving out private info.

 Good point, actually - thanks.
