[tw] Re: How to turn a hr-seperated list into a table with several columns?
Eric - is it somehow possible to make the script work on a lineseperated list produced by a fET? This would give infinite possibilites for producing tables with data fetched from tiddlers - and sorted by the fET.. I know how to make a single multicolumned table in a fET already - but it would add the ability to make "overflow" on *long* tables from very simple fETs - If a fET could actually "write" a real textlist - then this script could format the list to a table.. Am I dreaming?

Ok - Thanks for explaining... I've got it working now - and I am happy to say that it works on a simple lineseperated list as well as on a hr-seperated list. That's great - thanks a lot!

Slices *are* very useful. However, there are some limitations that you should be aware of: You need to know what the slice names are in order to access the values, and each slice has to have a unique name within the tiddler. In addition, slices cannot contain multiple lines of text, nor can they use the "|" symbol (assuming the slices are defined using TW table format). In contrast, HR-separated lists are simple sequences of *unnamed* items, and can contain multiple lines consisting of any sequence of characters except, of course, for a line containing just an HR (), as this would signal the end of one item and the start of the next. -e --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.

Thanks for the detailed information. So, I understand that, just as tables, those separated lists are a concise way to structure information which you just don't want to go down some "one tiddler for each item" approach.

[tw] Re: How to turn a hr-seperated list into a table with several columns?
I simply wanted: 1) A table with several rows for better visual overview 2) Yet another way to benefit from a list, that I already use in another context. a) For each new use of a source (list) - inside the same TW the nearer it gets to be a real database. b) Economics - less input - more output - I like that! 3) I wikikilinked the listitems in the hr-list (with double brackets) - which I use in the Qoute of the dayPlugin - to open the corresponding tiddlers from their titles in the QOTD - Quite handy. - a) I use of the Qoute of the day Plugin to autogenerate proposals for sets of songs (repertoire). I can click near the title and get a new proposal - or click directly on the songtitle - and open the songs tiddler. (I've made tables with several QOTD's to get a list of different songs each time I refresh display ) b) In the table with all songs from the songbook I get an overview - and the ability to click a title to open a song. Songtitles are often short - and they fit nicely in a large tablerepresentation ... A very long hr-list with small list items doesn't provide a good overview - and it seems like a waste of space - when you have to do a lot of scrolling.. I haven't finished modifying the hr-list yet - I'd like to add toggletags to each listitem - ... I hope this answers your question..

[tw] Re: How to turn a hr-seperated list into a table with several columns?
> First question, I m not familiar with the term "hr-seperated list".. An 'HR-separated list' is a text-based syntax that I've developed and used in numerous TiddlyTools plugins and inline scripts. Basically, it's a tiddler containing lines of text, divided up into 'items' of one or more lines, where each item is separated by a line containing a TW "HR" (horizontal rule) syntax: newline-4 dashes-newline (i.e., "\n\n"). Two examples of HR-separated lists: http://www.TiddlyTools.com/#Quotations and http://www.TiddlyTools.com/#MiniBrowserList If the first case, each item is a text entry (a quotation) that can be randomly selected and displayed by QuoteOfTheDayPlugin. In the second case, each item consists of two lines: the first line contains descriptive text, the second line contains a URL. This information is then used by MiniBrowserPlugin to populate the 'bookmarks' list. To parse an HR-separated list in javascript code (plugin or inline script) is easy: var items=store.getTiddlerText("SomeTiddler","").split("\n\n"); This creates an array of strings, one for each item in the list. Then, loop over those items to process each one. If each item has multiple lines, you can further split the text into separate lines (i.e., using .split('\n')). For example, to fill the 'bookmarks...' droplist in MiniBrowser: for (var i=0; i element (i.e., a droplist/listbox) For Mans' specific use case, you could write something like this using http://www.TiddlyTools.com/#InlineJavascriptPlugin var out=""; var items=store.getTiddlerText("SomeTiddler","").split("\n\n"); for (var i=0; i0 && i/5==Math.floor(i/5)) out += "|\n"; // start a new row out += "|"+items[i]; // add item to row } out += "|\n"; // end last row return out; The script constructs the desired TW table syntax into a string variable (out), and then returns that string. InlineJavascriptPlugin then automatically passes that returned text to the core's wikify() function to render the table into your output. enjoy, -e Eric Shulman TiddlyTools / ELS Design Studios --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.

[tw] Re: How to turn a hr-seperated list into a table with several columns?
First question, I m not familiar with the term "hr-seperated list".. Do you mean a list which has each item separated by a 'hard return' or combination? Or is there some other character string separating the items? If this is a one-time occurrence to take this list and change it,I'd suggest copying the body of the list into an external text file. Then use the text editor (of your choice) to insert a pipe character "|" as a replacement for the deliminator. Then, manually insert a carriage return after every fifth entry to break the list up into columns. You will probably need to insert several other pipes to finish the task. Another possibility would be to use a language like 'awk' to process the list, but I don't think the learning curve justifies a one-time use. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
