That's probably the best way unless it's really, really important that the text always stay to the right. If you squeeze the column enough, eventually the lines under CSS will go under the picture. If you do it your way, then you can also go back to using TW5 formatting, so you get: > >

MARK is exactly right. What you need is a browser add-on that detects "textarea", since TW is simply an HTML page and tiddler open edit space is simply one of those. THAT is step (1). Step (2) is you set it to open a text editor that has sorting capabilities. He suggest emacs. I use
