Re: [tw] Wikitext for tags?
I have to say that I also love the idea of writting several tiddlers at once. The same for fields, and tags. That combined with my keyboard snippets plugin could increase my productivity in an awesome way! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups TiddlyWiki group.

Re: [tw] Wikitext for tags?
Are you suggesting a mode in which tiddler metadata can be included in a special format in the main tiddler text area? I quite like that idea. +1 This would be perfect for faster workflow and note taking - IF the decided upon special format is designed with speed and simplicity in mind. The approach I prefer is where the content of the text box is transformed on entry into the individual fields (that means that re-editing a tiddler the special metadata markup would have been removed). What would be the advantage with removal? I'm not against it, just trying to understand pros and cons. Perhaps if the text box started with a period . then the special processing would be triggered. Personally, I would prefer to specify the commands on a more immediate need basis. Marking it out at beginning of tiddler means you either must know it when starting or you must jump up there again, put the mark and go down again. ...and if the parser can recognize this initial dot and the following dispersed markup commands, why can it not simply skip the initial dot step? We could use the same technique to split long tiddlers, something like this: * Given a long tiddler that needs to be split * Edit it * Add a . at the top * Insert the string - TiddlerTitle at each tiddler split point I (VERY much) like the idea to mark out splits for transclusion, but the user should not be forced to invent titles. I propose that if no title is inserted, then the current title is reused but with a number after (just like New Tiddler 1, New Tiddler 2 etc). Is there a standard notation symbol for split or alike, that can be reused here? What do pro editors use? - is OK I guess Or how about taking advantage of the standard heading markup; !, !! and !!!. These would probably often pretty natural places to split. For this case, an initial indicating command (e.g the dot) would make sense) OR there is a notation that takes advantage of the established !, such as perhaps ! !! etc. This would also make it easy to add splitout to an already existing document that uses regular headers. Further, IMO there should be an (optional) end splitout here mark. If there is no such, then it continues until either the next (begin) splitout mark or to the end of the tiddler. End splitout could perhaps be ! or !.(...which, btw, would open up for nested super splitting by adding the to the different header levels in a document. One long document that has headings that include subheadings woudl split out first the top level and then traverse down in each new tiddler to split out sublevels. All in the name of tiddler philosophy! ;-) Seriously, don't let this last bit discourage anyone. It is something that could be implemented later. It is also worth considering if, on split, it should be possible to add metadata? :-) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups TiddlyWiki group.

Re: [tw] Wikitext for tags?
How would the syntax for a 'value pair' look like? Sth like: .fieldname:value? The point aside (see my post above), this makes sense. Specifically then, perhaps tag:value on a single line (and perhaps followed by a blank line?). The bit about on a single line (and perhaps followed by a blank line?) would also enable for multiple tags, i.e simply tag:value1 value 2 value3 ... BTW, mGTD/mGSD http://mgsd.tiddlyspot.com/demo3.html#%5B%5BAbout%20Quick%20Add%5D%5D has the quick add » feature (look at top menu, in center). The link I provide is a permalink to the instructions for this quick add feature. Basically it is a notation to create multiple tiddlers, with tags, in one go. Very powerful. :-) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups TiddlyWiki group.

If some of this could be options then you might even be able to decide to create a filtered list of sub tiddlers from the newly created tiddlers - based on tags, titles, fields or what ever :-) I really like the idea of being able to add fields (and tags) or create new tiddlers as you write wiki text in a tiddler. Please keep on developing on that idea :-) Cheers Måns Mårtensson -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups TiddlyWiki group.
