[tw5] Re: "type" filter operator missing from official list?

[TonyM]

Just like with regular fields you can use the has and get operators then filter 
the result such as has[type]prefix[text]

Tony

I believe they are: *text/vnd.tiddlywiki  *?

ty Mark & Tony, I forgot about the automatic field operator assumption

so what does the field operator [type[]] produce?  tiddlers with no type 
set?  Most of my tiddlers that don't have a type set display their type 
application/x-tiddler (not in Tiddler Info>Advanced>Fields which reads type 
only if set, but in the More>Fields list

[TonyM]

A,

Mark beat me too it

The reason is there is not special operator. since type is a field name you 
are effectively using a version of the Field Operator 


This is actually a nice option because to can say fieldname[value] which in 
a way allows you to define what look like custom operators eg
show-details[yes]

Regards
Tony

['Mark S.' via TiddlyWiki]

"type" isn't a filter operator -- it's a field.
