Hi All Last night, in my favorite pasttime, tweaking my TWs - actually I was working, which involves using TWs!...I wondered about a new plugin possibility.
Having recently installed the "Its All Text" extension to Firefox, remembering PlayerPlugin(TiddlyTools), LaunchApplicationPlugin (http:// www.remotely-helpful.com/TiddlyWiki/LaunchApplication.html) and looking into the "tiny_usb_office" (www.xtort.net) group of basic, simple and tiny office-type programs...and I wondered if it would be possible to put these four items "together" So, LaunchApplication would have a macro that could be included in EditTemplate, in a way that it has a switch (in Player its "windows", "realone"...) that specifies which tiny_usb_office program I want to work with. So "32spread" for example opens up the 32spread program (a simple spreadsheet)... can enter my data...and on close my spread sheet is dumped into the tiddler from whence it came. Similarly 100Zipper will zip and unzip my files, TEDPad is my text editor..eve my diagram maker.......could I include GIMP in that list? Now TiddlyWiki becomes a powerful desktop system......I probably won´t uninstall MSOffice as my wife hasn't yet caught TiddlWikiFever (it seems to be only mildly contageous)....and who knows...maybe one day I will need, say EXCEL to build a really sophisticated spreadsheet that my TiddlyWiki/32spread can´t handle......but this TiddlyWiki would cover 99% of my needs... I wouldn´t have to leave TiddlyWorld!!!! And, with tiny_usb_office weighing in at 2.5 Mb.....you put this on a pendrive with your TiddlyWiki, and a few other portable applications (Firefox, Freemind, Skype...) and you have a powerful portable operating system in your pocket.... Possible? Skye --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
