Thanks, Tony! I'm wondering how many people on earth really understand the TiddlyWiki macro language :-) Why do you use *currentTiddler* as variable? Am Montag, 20. April 2020 04:58:53 UTC+2 schrieb TonyM: > > Updated > > New Macro name and a button one as well > > \define kbd(string delim:" "

@Mat: Thanks for your reply! Yes, I know that I can pass empty strings as arguments but I don't want to end up with empty keys. And I had no idea how to skip a key if an empty string was given. @Eric: Awesome! This works perfectly. Thank you! Am Sonntag, 19. April 2020 17:24:54 UTC+2 schrieb

Macros themselves don't require that all arguments are actually used. If all are needed depends only on the logic that you create inside the macro. \define foo(bar, baz) $bar$ and $baz$ <> ---> YO and However be careful because the first argument that you put in the macrocall is
