In TiddlyWiki *content*, variables are referenced using <>.  
The double-bracket syntax is used to avoid conflicts with standard HTML 
syntax (i.e.,  starts normal HTML bold formatting, while <> embeds 
the value of a TiddlyWiki variable named "b")

However, within TiddlyWiki *filters*, there is no need doubling the 
brackets, as HTML is not allowed *within* the filter, so only single 
 is used.

...and why I don't have to wrap  with [] before 
> giving it to split. 


Think of the brackets in filters as part of the operand itself rather than 
a "container" for the operand.  The type of bracket indicates the type of 
operand being used:
   use [...] for literal values, e.g., [texthere] 
   use {...} for field references, e.g., {!!fieldname}
   use <...> for variables e.g. 

Thus, to split the literal text, "sometext", you could write:
   [title[sometext]splitbefore[t]removesuffix[t]]
you would get "some" as a result.

If the value "sometext" is stored in a field named "somefield" in the 
current tiddler, you could write:
  [{!!somefield}splitbefore[t]removesuffix[t]]

and, if the value "sometext" is stored in a variable named "somevariable", 
you could write:
  [splitbefore[t]removesuffix[t]]

As a slightly more complex example, suppose the value to split on was also 
stored in a variable.  Then you could write:
  [splitbeforeremovesuffix]

hope this helps,

enjoy,

[tw] Re: Html Export

2017-12-02 Thread TonyM
OK  Great that gives me something to work with.

Keep in mind you control how a tiddler looks, at least within the text 
field, so you can choose to use macros and other features that do not show 
links, tag pills etc...

You could transclude other tiddlers into a master tiddler such that on 
export they are all within the html body. If you do not depend on special 
fonts or CSS you can just cut and paste using an editor everything between 
 and  once we have an exporter for only the Text part of the 
HTML render, if I am correct.

Never the less I too would like the ability to export clean HTML Snippets 
as needed.

Tony

Hi Eric!!

Thank you very much, quite generous with your time. Is it allowed to 
request paid help (on an hourly basis) in this google group? It's going to 
take too much time for me to iron out the last details and I would rather 
work with and pay someone that knows what they are doing (TW + CSS) to get 
me the file to be as I want it to be. For example, when I tried your 
example, it only colored the background of the text in the cell, the the 
whole cell, etc.

Should I just go ahead and request paid help..? I can't imagine this is 
going to be more than a few hours (total) if someone knows what they are 
doing.

[tw] Re: [TW5] Add ability to save/export other extensions

2017-12-02 Thread TonyM
Mario,

I know what you say, but as eric says we own the software here that can 
choose. 

I have asked this question in other requests to no response.  To me this 
would open a great deal of potential to store code, snipits, powershell 
scripts, terminal commands and more.

For example recently a Clients web host insisted on DNS Zone File updates 
being presented in a specific format and file standard, it would be easy to 
develop a standard tiddler one could edit some field values and generate 
the file for upload or email.

Additionally We can include a sentenal batch file, loaded on Windows (my 
expertise)  in start up that then monitors downloads (other exported 
tiddlers) and actions them. For example setting symbolic links, displaying 
the full download path, executing system commands sending them to an editor 
or SDK and much more. I also have some ways to ensure a degree of security 
on this.
 
One compelling example with a currently registered type is automating the 
generation of the settings.json for TiddlyServer in TiddlyWiki then export 
it to the right folder.

Of course we can write something that does not use the existing export 
features, but to me it makes sense using it because it also allows specific 
identification of such registered tiddler types.

Apart form my wanting to boost TW5 interaction with my desktop I see plenty 
of opportunity to use this to simplify install and integration tools, for 
example a tiddler could document and automate the whole install and execute 
process for newbies (by OS). We could even build HTML page builders, NodeJS 
command execution from inside tiddlywiki itself and a lot more.

Ma be I an dreaming?

Tony

[tw] Re: Html Export

2017-12-02 Thread tobaisch
TonyM,
something more detailed.
my wishes to Santa Claus :)
An exportoption of the tiddler into a simple html file.
The header should simply have the title of the exportet Tiddler in the title
maybe export from mytiddler.html
But that's not so important because it's easy to change.

The first line of my visible html-file should be the first line of my 
visible content of my tiddler. So mostly a headline and then the text.
No Tag-Pills, no date-stamp, no links to tiddlers in the text.
Just the visible content of the Tiddler.

For several Tiddlers who are merged together it would be best, if the 
Tiddlers are merged exactly in the content (start of content Tiddler01 -> 
content -> end of content Tiddler01 -> start of content Tiddler02 ...)

The export function is currently really good and meaningful.
But sometimes you need another variant.

Tob

Hi Mat,

Nice work!

I think without examples that show at least the output, it will be 
confusing to newbies. That is, they won't immediately grasp what the power 
of the tool is that is being discussed. 

You might call "Static" something like "Static/Manual Lists" to convey that 
it's being done by hand.

Good luck!

Although it is not recommended, you can specify ANY string you like as a 
mime type, even if it is not included in any of the defined standards.  
Thus, you can enter "text/cmd" into the "Type" field of a tiddler.  
However, since that is not a standard type, it won't be recognized by any 
of the usual mechanisms.  Nonetheless, if you extend TiddlyWiki's 
registeredFileType definitions, you SHOULD be able to export tiddlers with 
"type/cmd" to files with a ".cmd" extension.  Note that I have NOT tried

Different systems have different, but similar font definitions.  To address 
this, CSS allows you to specify a comma-separated list of font names.  
Names that contain spaces (e.g., "Helvetica Neue") must be enclosed in 
quotes, while names without spaces don't need the quotes.  The list of font 
names is processed left-to-right, until a font name is matched.  Thus, the 
list defines a "fallback" sequence... i.e., if "Helvetica Neue" is not 
found, try "Helvetica", then "Arial", and finally "Lucinda Grande".  If no 
matching font is found on your system (unlikely, but still possible), the 
browser will fall back to it's own default font choice (often, but not 
always, a "Times Roman" serif-ed font).

And for tiddler-body it looks like an incomplete font specification, just

"serif" and "sans-serif" are generic names that always correspond to *some* 
installed font, so it is often sufficient to just specify the one font 
name, rather than a whole list of font names
 

> I am not sure what this means: "you can use @@.classname Your Cell 
> content@@" / is this how to pad cells or specifiy different cell colors..?
>

TiddlyWiki syntax allows you to wrap any content (not just table cell 
content) using @@.classname ...@@ syntax.   The ".classname" refers to a 
CSS class defined in a stylesheet tiddler (a tiddler tagged with 
"$:/tags/Stylesheet", containing CSS declarations).  Note that, in the 
above TiddlyWiki syntax, there is a *space* following the classname... this 
is important, as it signals the end of the classname and the start of your 
content.  Everything following that space, up to the closing "@@" is 
content, that will be styled using the declared classname.

Alternatively, you can also use CSS definitions directly "inline", rather 
than defining a classname in a separate Stylesheet tiddler.  For example, 
using the standard CSS text style "color", you can write:

@@font-family:Times New 
Roman;font-weight:bold;color:green;background-color:yellow; THIS IS A BOLD, 
GREEN, AND SERIF-ED FONT@@

Note also that items of inline CSS are separated by a semi-colon (;) and, 
unlike the .classname example above, the CSS does not *require* a trailing 
space, as long as the content that follows it does not match any valid CSS 
syntax.  Even so, it's a good idea to *always* include the trailing space 
to ensure that the end of the CSS syntax is clearly defined, regardless of 
the text content that follows it.

hope this helps,

[tw] Re: Hiccups modifying fonts and color palette (...)

2017-12-02 Thread Patrick Cormier
Thanks Tony,

About the fonts, The problem is I am not a CSS coder or developer... So I 
can read and follow instructions when they are not open to interpretation, 
for example, I found how to upload a font to fontsquirrel to download a 
webkit and then create a tiddler to make the font available. But when I 
read the following which is said to change the fonts of tiddler body text 
and headings:

.tc-tiddler-frame .tc-tiddler-body {
font-family: serif;
}

.tc-tiddler-frame .tc-tiddler-body > h1 {
font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, "Lucida Grande", 
sans-serif;
}

.tc-tiddler-frame .tc-tiddler-body > h2 {
font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, "Lucida Grande", 
sans-serif;
}

.tc-tiddler-frame .tc-tiddler-body > h3 {
font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, "Lucida Grande", 
sans-serif;
}

I don't know what to change - for  H1 above I read  "Helvetica Neue", 
Helvetica, Arial, "Lucida Grande"  and I'm confused - why specify 4 fonts, 
2 in quotes, 2 without? 

And for tiddler-body it looks like an incomplete font specification, just 
"sans serif"?

Is there any hope of getting through this even if I do not know CSS...? 

Also, about "Has the style applying to your smudgy test have a boarder", I 
haven't applied any stype, the text is like that and I do not know why.

I am not sure what this means: "you can use @@.classname Your Cell 
content@@" / is this how to pad cells or specifiy different cell colors..?

Thank you so much for the tips you suggested I am experimenting with them 
now!

Cheers

Patrick

Folks With a deep understanding of the core perhaps,

In $:/boot/boot.js various types and extensions are registered in lines like

$tw.utils.registerFileType("text/plain","utf8",".txt");


How can I add another such as


$tw.utils.registerFileType("text/cmd","utf8",".cmd");


So I can export with the cmd extension?

2017-12-02 Thread TonyM
Mark,

In all my years of using Portable apps (perhaps even 20 years) off and On I 
have never seen malware. Once you install it running a scan against it 
should be insightful as many people use it and most virus programs know 
these files, most of which are the same as the original just packaged to be 
portable.

ie PortableApps.com is my source.

I have a high level of confidence in portableapps.com

[tw] [docs] Introduction to Lists

2017-12-02 Thread Mat
I hope to get the following "Introductions to Lists" into tiddlywiki.com. 
The text is intentionally brief - it is just an overview of the relevant 
concepts collect in one place.

This could/should perhaps be posted on TiddlyWikiDocs 
... but I figured 
this forum is more likely to give feedback, especially from noobs. I'm also 
hoping the Wizards here will point out if anything is missing or wrong.

Note: If you don't like the wikitext formatting below, you can paste the 
text right into a tiddler on tiddlywiki.com to read it more easily and with 
working links.

title: Introduction to Lists


tags: Learning


text:

Lists play a central role in TiddlyWiki and there are several aspects of 
lists worth understanding. The following is a brief run-through of some of 
the more common techniques associated with lists.

Note that lists often don’t have the typical one-item-per-row appearance. 
This is especially true for //generated// lists (see below).

!Static lists

!!~WikiText

WikiText lists are explicitly typed lists where special characters are 
parsed to show special styling. Examples include bullet lists created with 
asterisks (*) and numbered lists (#). Behind the scenes, WikiText lists are 
based on the simple `` and `` html-elements. For more, see [[Lists 
in WikiText]]

!Generated lists

Generated lists center around [[filters|Filters]] in which [[filter 
operators|Filter Operators]] define which are the concerned tiddlers and 
which parts of these tiddlers, such as their titles or their texts, that 
are desired for the output. 

!!~ListWidget

This widget is the most powerful tool for creating lists. It allows the 
filter output to be manipulated and styled within the ListWidget - also 
into many forms that don't resemble lists at all, for example tables or 
complex texts.

''Side note'': Even tiddlers themselves are made with a ListWidget. The 
[[tiddler template|$:/core/ui/ViewTemplate]] lists the templates for each 
constituting field of the tiddler such as the title, the tags, the text and 
more. 

!!Filtered transclusion

The short form for filtered transclusion (`{{{...}}}`) takes a filter as 
argument and outputs a line-broken but otherwise unstyled list, unless a 
template is applied to the output. For example `{{{ [tag[HelloThere]] || 
$:/core/ui/TagTemplate }}}` lists all tiddlers tagged HelloThere and 
presents them as tags. 

!!list-links Macro

The [[list-links|list-links Macro]] macro was created to let you quickly 
and easily get a preformatted list, typically a bullet list. Behind the 
scenes it really is a ListWidget with some styling.

!Other “list related” commands

[[list|ListField]], [[list-before|Order of Tagged Tiddlers]] and 
[[list-after|Order of Tagged Tiddlers]] are all //field names// to control 
the position of tiddlers in a list.

[[list|list Operator]] and [[listed|listed Operator]] are //filter 
operators// that operate on the [[list field|ListField]]. ([[listed|listed 
Operator]] can also operator on other fields.)

[tw] Re: Html Export

2017-12-02 Thread TonyM
Tobaisch,


I am developing my skills and want to build my own exporters so may build 
one. 

Can you explain what you want and I will see if I can build one for you?

eg; Export the rendered tiddler text field as a HTML snipit, such that it 
can be pasted into another HTML page (without header and tags just the text 
part rendered)
or  Export the rendered tiddler text field as a HTML, such that it a 
standalone HTML page (without header and tags just the text part rendered)
etc...

PS - in the mean time the tiddler you want to render as html can be 
designed by you not to include internal links that may interfere with your 
final product.

Regards
Tony

Mark,

With FF portable you may also use as many profiles as you want:

https://portableapps.com/support/firefox_portable#second_profile

There's also FF ESR portable versions in 17 languages if preferred:

https://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox-portable-esr

I am using portable versions out of an USB at my office for many years now, 
due to being prohibited to install anything on my work PC, with no issues

[tw] Hiccups modifying fonts and color palette (...)

2017-12-02 Thread Patrick Cormier
Hello everyone,

I used TW about 12 years ago and I just came back to it today... Long 
absence, I want to use it to issue newsletters.

I made a view only link to the TW hosted on google drive: 
http://bit.ly/digitransfo-newletter-1712 (you would have to download and 
open lhe file locally)

I'm having no problem using the chrome extension for saving changes - 
great. Saving is much easier than 12 years ago... :)

I did my best changing the color palette so it matches the look & feel I'm 
after. I'm stuck however with these unresolved issues:

   - How can I change the table header text *foreground* color? I only 
   found how to change the table header text *background*, not 
   foreground...? See table in tiddler "Featured Content" 
   - I can't figure out why my white text in the sidebar menu under tabs 
   "Newsletter Contents" and "About" is smudgy and not as clean as the other 
   white text?! I've been trying to figure this out for two hours, to no avail
   - Is there a way to specify different google fonts for body text and 
   headings..?
   - Is there a way to change the horizontal 50-50% screen real estate 
   split between the sidebar menu and the story? I find the sidebar should 
   take less than 50%...
   - Has anyone tried to add an image banner above the sidebar menu? Or 
   above the whole page? And/or add a page footer?
   - Does anyone have a cheat sheet or reference guide that explains how to 
   do more advanced stuff with tables than what is in the basic guide, for 
   example, cell padding and modifying the foreground (text) and background 
   (fill) cell colour on a cell by cell basis? I could do this 12 years ago 
   but completely forgot how...

Sorry, lots of questions for a first post, but I rarely post and can 
usually find out stuff on my own, but the questions above, no luck...

Merci :)

Patrick

[tw] Re: Confused and overwhelmed

2017-12-02 Thread TonyM
Folks,

You all miss interpret my comments, and in fact I expected that. I am all for 
warts and all critical conversation but on a thread with a newbie who had no 
need to get involved with this issue, just give them solutions. We have perhaps 
even too many.

Once again I have made a quick and short responce rather than addressing 
comments in detail. I hope you can extrapolate.

please do not be offended, its a simple point.

[tw] Re: [INTRO] uni-link plugin

2017-12-02 Thread PMario
Hi Diego, 

The uni-link class is basically assigned to every link which uses brackets. 
Excpet pretty-links and CamelCase links. ... 

But I like your idea. We could change the macro 
https://wikilabs.github.io/editions/uni-link/#%24%3A%2Fplugins%2Fwikilabs%2Funi-link%2Funi-link-macro
 
that is used and assign different classes, depending on the element that is 
used to display the title. 

eg: no change for titles,  ... uni-link both of the following: uni-caption, 
uni-subtitle,  ... Will have a look. 

have fun!

[tw] Re: Hard Linebreaks not appearing with some text formatting

2017-12-02 Thread RichardWilliamSmith
Hi,

When you block format a paragraph, it gets split into separate lines so you 
need to style them separately:

"""
//This is a line//
''and this is a new line''
//while this is yet another line//
"""

The issue is with how HTML itself treats block and inline elements, I think.

Regards,
Richard

[tw] Re: Html Export

2017-12-02 Thread RichardWilliamSmith
Hi Again,

Unfortunately, to do what you want requires you to understand wikitext a 
bit better. The 'static tiddler' tiddler is using the 'view template' to 
render the static representation. 'view template' is rendering all the 
tiddlers that have the tag '$:/tags/ViewTemplate'. The sidebar you added 
should list those amongst the rest. If you remove the tag from a tiddler, 
it will cease to be statically rendered but it will also cease to be 
rendered into the wiki (for example, remove it from 
$:/core/ui/ViewTemplate/tags and the tag pills will disappear). To change 
the static export without affecting your own wiki, you need to alter 
'static tiddler' to use a different template instead of ''view template", 
probably by cloning it and changing the references. Good luck.

Regards,
Richard

[tw] Re: Hard Linebreaks not appearing with some text formatting

2017-12-02 Thread AndrewMc
Thanks Tony

The use of   tags does indeed give the desired line layout. It 
also allows the use of wikitext formatting such as ''bold'' and 
//italics//. However, it does also give a fixed-spacing font which may not 
be desired.

Cheers

[tw] Re: Html Export

2017-12-02 Thread Abraham Samma
I think community members should consider taking up the challenge of 
creating new kinds of exporters. I for example use TW5 a lot to write draft 
articles for medium.com. I could very well do with an exporter that exports 
directly to medium.com

Information/knowledge in one place is what tiddlywiki is all about. Its 
basically a html5 app that is portable and that can also be hosted online 
like a normal website. As many have already pointed out, you can start by 
checking out tiddlywiki.com

You'll find tiddlywiki to be a great way of experimenting with web 
technologies. Many in here have contributed code, plugins and projects to 
this thing. I encourage you to not falter and stay on to discover more. You 
won't regret it. 

Welcome.

2017-12-02 Thread tobaisch
Hi Richard,
thank you.
In the files $:/core/templates/static-tiddler respectively.
$:/core/ui/ViewTemplate i find no approach where i could change my exports 
in such a way that no Tiddler-Links are displayed and that the Tag-Pills in 
the exported html file can be turned off.
I deleted a little bit something in the files.
Either nothing happens or everything is gone. That does not make sense. :)

*
\define frame-classes()
tc-tiddler-frame tc-tiddler-view-frame $(missingTiddlerClass)$ 
$(shadowTiddlerClass)$ $(systemTiddlerClass)$ $(tiddlerTagClasses)$

variable="listItem"><$transclude tiddler=<>/>

I also got the systemtiddlers to the sidebar, as you recommended.
I absolutely do not know what to do with it. 
I'm just looking for a way to export to static Html with no Tiddler-Links 
and Tag-Pills.

Excuse me for my stupidity
I'm just beginning to understand all that new stuff in the Tiddler system.

Yes. I downloaded the latest version of the classic TW yesterday to check 
it out. At least that gives the option of download type saving on any 
browser in case of emergency. When I have time i'll try to import my 
tiddlers to that. I'm also thinking of trying waterfox, as I'm very used to 
a number of extensions for FF. Such a waste of time all this :-( I have

2017-12-02 Thread Birthe C
Hi Captain Packers,

I think Ton Gerner is right, find the explanation in the link given by Ton. 
At some point in time I think most of us used that solution, so maybe you 
imported it from someones old TW. If so be ready to rewrite some buttons. 
It is also possible that you created a tag with illegit characters as Tony 
explains. I've had the problem after creating a button from a filter with 
errors.

Yes and a big NO.

The issue, to make it coldly rational, is between IDEOGRAPHIC explanation 
(a person's experientially informed intuitive grasp of the situation) and 
NOMOTHETIC reasoning (objective data collection to instantiate material 
trends).

Lacking clear statistics on who takes up what when and how here making 
ideographic guesses about usage is VERY important. RWS did that. 

RichardWS' comments I think were spot on. Mat has made similar points in 
the past. And I and others have too.

The "User who never signed up" remains largely unknowable. But that does 
NOT have any implying that we can't know there is a problem that they 
didn't sign-up. We have that signal from our own knowing.

Josiah

Right. 

RichardWilliamSmith also wrote:
the current situation of having 17 (!) different available saving 
mechanisms listed on the main page and expecting people to somehow know 
what's going on.

I agree. IMO, TiddlyWiki is Blessed/Cursed by its flexibility. On the one 
hand, once you get some footing with it, its an ever expanding horizon of 
ways ahead. On the other hand, it can be an off-putting mess for being able 
to find a simple way to just start.

I think this partly reflects love of the great DIY routes to TW. BUT I 
think we sell many potential users short by giving more options than many a 
starter can cope with. 

Its not anyone's fault. This situation was not planned. But the complexity 
of entry is, I think, too much.

I often wonder if whether TW uptake would improve if we had ONE saving 
method (or the practically closest to that). Surely the real point is 
writing Tiddlers, not having to obsess over saving methods?

I am simply, I think, of the view that most potential users probably 
neither need multiple routes nor have interest in them. 

And my guess is pitching TW as a more "click & go" mechanism with the LEAST 
NO OF STEPS to get started would improve uptake.

In some previous posts @Jermolene has referred to one possible future for 
TW for "starting users" might be an online service that deals with all the 
complexity on saving for the basic user. In an increasingly "cloud" world 
that might have merit too.

Just thoughts.

[tw] Re: Html Export

2017-12-02 Thread RichardWilliamSmith
Hi,

As a starting point, you can try looking at 
$:/core/templates/static-tiddler - it's including everything that has the 
tag $:/core/ui/ViewTemplate by default, which is the same tag used to 
include them in the wiki itself, so you could change that and add your new 
tag to the pieces of the view template that you want.

In general you can find these system tiddlers using the advanced search 
menu, but I also find it useful to have a tiddler like this one:

\define setStateTid()
> $:/state/systemtags/$(currentTiddler)$
> \end
>
> <$list filter="[all[shadows+tiddlers]tags[]prefix[$]]">
>
>
> <$reveal type="nomatch" state=<> text="show">

> <$reveal type="match" state=<> text="show">

> 
>
>
> <>
>
>
> 
> 
>
>

that lets me inspect all of them (I add it to the sidebar and this version 
also lets me re-order the tags by dragging them, which is especially useful 
when working with view templates)

Regards,
Richard

[tw] Re: Confused and overwhelmed

2017-12-02 Thread RichardWilliamSmith
Hi Tony,

Yes, I intended it to sound like speculation. That's why I worded it the 
way I did. I'm afraid I don't see how it's 'unfair' to anyone if I 
speculate in public about such a thing and, in general, I don't appreciate 
attempts to police my speech. FWIW, everything I write here or anywhere 
else is 'only an opinion'. Some of my opinions are strongly held, some are 
weakly held but all of them are sincerely held and I express them only with 
the intention of helping other people. They are also amenable to change via 
conversation. 

If you think I'm wrong, I'm happy to discuss it with you. I don't expect 
Jeremy will do anything he doesn't want to. I certainly don't expect him to 
change the site because I think it should change. But I also don't expect 
he'll be bothered if we discuss it. 

I think there is too much clutter and confusion on the homepage at present 
and the text that greets first-time users doesn't do a good enough job of 
explaining what Tiddlywiki is and why it might be useful. The most amazing 
thing about the site, which **we** all know, is that it's a Tiddlywiki 
itself but it doesn't tell new users that anywhere, does it? It could say 
something like "congratulations, you just downloaded everything you need to 
use Tiddlywiki, a non-linear notebook that runs privately in your 
browser.". It should (in my opinion) emphasise that there is no backend 
involved. Then it should provide dirt-simple instructions for downloading 
empty, making one edit and saving the result locally. If that's compelling 
to people, and if they have an inkling of the other things it can do, they 
will (in my opinion) be more likely to invest the effort necessary to 
figure out which of the saving mechanisms they prefer.

For what it's worth, if it were completely up to me I would have the 
current site become the 'docs' website and replace it with a much simpler 
site aimed at marketing Tiddlywiki more effectively. It could still be 
built with Tiddlywiki and could still contain some instructional material, 
but I would use a more linear structure.

Regards,
Richard
