This can be achieved by pure CSS.
Copy the following CSS definition into a tiddler eg: myExternalLinkStyle
and tag it $:/tags/Stylesheet
a.tc-tiddlylink-external:after {
display: inline-block;
content: ;
width: 12px;
height: 8px;
background: transparent
url(data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhCAAIAIABAABmZv///yH5BAEKAAEALAAIAAgAAAIPjAMJd5q2HoQLsTpto84UADs=)
no-repeat center;
}
if you use:
a.tc-tiddlylink-external:before instead of :after the icon is in front of
the link.
have fun!

Re: [tw] Re: [TW5] URL prettify macro, e.g to show git-issue links as #number
Hi Richard Hi Mario - I found the github api and was just reading up on it. I thought it might be a good way for me to learn a bit more about how api calls work. I see your point about calling the api repeatedly - what do you think the best practice would be in this regard? ie; is there a way to limit the number of times it gets called (once?) - for example only when the wiki is loaded and store the result? You definitely don't want to be making HTTP calls from macros or widgets; by the time the call returns the widget/macro might have been destroyed and recreated by the refresh mechanism. Here's a potentially workable approach. Issue 1799 has the following URL: https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/issues/1799 As a convention, we could store the corresponding title in the text field system tiddler: $:/plugins/richardsmith/githubissues/ https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/issues/1799 Then we need to display an issue we could do so with a transclusion that falls through to displaying the URL if the title tiddler is missing: $transclude tiddler=$:/plugins/richardsmith/githubissues/$(issue-url)$ $(issue-url)$ /$transclude Then we'd need a startup module or daemon that handles `tm-load-url` messages, with parameters indicating the URL to load and the tiddler to store the data. The loading would happen asynchronously, triggering a refresh when the tiddler is eventually loaded. We would probably need to take steps to avoid the same tiddler being repeatedly loaded (perhaps we could rely on XMLHttpRequest to observe the incoming HTTP caching headers). The final part is triggering the loading. That's tricky because we don't currently have a way of triggering a message when a chunk of content is displayed; messages are always triggered by external events like clicks or timers. The easiest way to experiment would be with a JS macro that sends the `tm-load-url` message when it is rendered. That's only an outline, I'd be delighted to help with details. The url loading mechanism is nicely generic, though.

Hi Mat, - Shoud it perhaps be tagged $:/tags/Macro ? hmmm... yes. Now you mention it, I'm not sure why it works without that - I guess because it's javascript and explicitly functions as a macro. - I note that adds #. This is a really nice touch for the github issues but does not work so well for permalinks as they already have this character after the slash sign so it results in double ##.

(I'll attempt to implement this too... good luck, Mat) Good luck, Mat! It's really not so scary - you should be able to pass the delimiter as an optional second parameter - When I add it (to TWaddle), should/can I in the tiddler head add the text: - creator: Richard Smith source: https:// dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/83055414/prettifylinkexample.html#RS%2Fmacros%2Fprettifypath.js I'd rather not commit to that file existing for any length of time. - ...and, if I manage to get something working with my tweaks for it, how would I fairly credit you?

Perhaps, if we add some more features/options it will be worth rolling up into a plugin and we can maintain it together - your idea after all. @Alex: good idea Alex - inexplicably, I hadn't looked at the documentation macros before.

[tw] Re: [TW5] URL prettify macro, e.g to show git-issue links as #number
Hi again Mat,
I think I did it. I put it in a dropbox wiki for you to look
at: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/83055414/prettifylinkexample.html
I cloned one of the existing macros so that it had the right type and
module type and then fudged my way through it. The only vexing part was
having to reload the wiki each time to see if it worked - I assume there
must be a better way to do that.
The code looks like this (comments and criticism gladly accepted);
/*\
title: $:/RS/macros/prettifypath.js
type: application/javascript
module-type: macro
Resolves a relative path for an absolute rootpath.
\*/
(function(){/*jslint node: true, browser: true */
/*global $tw: false */
use strict;exports.name = prettifypath;exports.params = [
{name: path},
];/*
Run the macro
*/
exports.run = function(path) {
var arrayOfStrings = path.split(/);
var returnValue = [[# + arrayOfStrings[arrayOfStrings.length-1] +
| + path + ]];
return returnValue;};})();

Hi Mat, I applaud your vigour in attempting to stretch wikitext to it's limits but I think we might be at it's limit here (Jeremy?) Like you, I am 'not a coder', but I think it might be easier for us to figure out the necessary javascript (and start to become coders!) than to look for a wikitext solution. Here is the dev page on js macros: http://tiddlywiki.com/dev/index.html#JavaScript%20Macros And here are the examples from the core: https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/tree/master/core/modules/macros This is (presumably) the js function we would use: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/String/split Presumably, this would be quite easy for our coding friends to achieve...
