[tw] Re: Substring of tiddler name

It seems there isn't such a function in TW core. But, is it possible (for someone who knows how to do it) to write a substring js macro. The javascript is this: var str = "Hello world!"; var res = str.substring(x, y); so <$macrocall $name="substring" string="Hello,World" x="1" y="5"/> would

hmm. Mario, thanks! This works sort of But I don't know the prefix - I have a list of 50+ tiddlers with unique digit patterns as part of the tiddler names. I need to extract the prefix. Is there a substring function in TW that can operate on a variable? Like,

Yes, number string is unique. I've been working with the regexp, but can't quite get it to work... This is what I've got: <$set name="digit-pattern" value="[0-9]{2} [0-9]{2}">||> this is the unique pattern that begins each tiddler <$list filter="[regexp:title]">

Hi, this topic seems to have come up before, but without a clear answer. How do I define a substring with the first x characters of a tiddler name? If I have $tiddler$ named "01 01 Long name of tiddler" (those are spaces) I'd like to be extract "01 01" to <> so I can write <$link

Loading all tiddlers into memory doesn't explain that sort of memory consumption. The entire html file is loaded into memory when you load it in the browser and all the tiddlers are part of the html file. And the entire wiki (which includes all the tiddlers) is pretty small anyway, nowhere near
