[tw] How introduce TW to newbie?

2013-11-26 Thread Mat
A friend expressed interest in TW and I promised to e-mail him some info.

I'm always afraid people get overwhelmed when they take look at TW because 
the whole tiddlyverse has grown so complex. Especially if they're not 
hackers - which I don't think he is, but then neither am I. He works as a 
teacher btw.
.
Flavor wise (for lack of better term) I'm thinking of only bringing up TW 
classic (and tiddlywiki.com) and TS. And I think post-it notes 
(programmable if you wish) are a fair analogy to tiddlers. And of course 
I'll mention this group. No mention of tiddlyspot, tiddlytools, TW5 or 
other concepts to begin with.

IMO the smoothest start is probably to create a space on TS.

Thoughts? What would you do? I'll suggest he reads this thread, btw.

Thanks for your answers, both very interesting!
Funny how such a simple tool can be such a complex tool.

[tw] [TWC] MTC for slice transclusion - why does this not work?

2013-12-12 Thread Mat
http://mtc-slicetransclusion.tiddlyspace.com/

Trying to transclude slice content, but it only works for slicenames on 
singleword form, not double words nor [[links]]. 
The link illustrates the problem.
What to do?
I tried with WikifyPlugin but this did not solve it. I also tried in TW 
(ie. non TS) but no cigar.

Thank you!

I might have found the answer at http://tiddlywiki.org/#Slices


*A slice name may contain any of the characters a-ZA-Z_0-9.*
Appears slices cannot contain spaces. It would be great if it could, and 
particularly [[links with spaces]], because you can then create tables and 
refer to items rather freely, eg: 

| Item | Quantity |
|[[10k ohm ¼ watt resistor]]|2|
|[[560 ohm ¼ watt resistor]]|16|

Any suggestions what to do, anyone?

Thank you!

Hooray, not only did your help solve the space character problem but your 
guidance led me to find a solution (albeit not perfect, see below) also for 
square brackets, thus making my example possible to use, ie:

| Item | Quantity |
|[[10k ohm ¼ watt resistor]]|2|
|[[560 ohm ¼ watt resistor]]|16|

The magic lottery combo is:

\.\w \u005b\u005d

...resulting in:

TiddlyWiki.prototype.slicesRE = /(?:^([\'\/]{0,2})~?([\.\w 
\u005b\u005d]+)\:\1[\t\x20]*([^\n]*)[\t\x20]*$)|(?:^\|([\'\/]{0,2})~?([\.\w 
\u005b\u005d]+)\:?\4\|[\t\x20]*([^\|\n]*)[\t\x20]*\|$)/gm;

When you call for the slice value, you use:

tiddler SourceTiddler::[[slice name]]

...meaning that (and here's the not-perfect aspect) you must explicitly add 
the [[ and ]] in the slice call, ie you must know that it really is a 
wikilink you're calling. If anyone has a solution to this, please shout 
out. For practical purposes I guess an ugly solution is possible, that is 
to double call because the faulty call does not render anything (...as far 
as I understand), ie:

tiddler SourceTiddler::slice nametiddler SourceTiddler::[[slice 
name]]

(Better suggestions welcomed.)

Regarding that first bit Eric suggested for space character, should that 
not be in TW core then?

Again, thank you!

 You can experiment with changing the regular expression (text pattern) 
 that the TWCore slice mechanism uses for recognizing slice definitions 
 embedded in tiddler content...

 Create a new tiddler, [[SetCustomSlicePattern]], tagged with 
 'systemConfig', containing this single-line of code: 

 TiddlyWiki.prototype.slicesRE = /(?:^([\'\/]{0,2})~?([\.\w]+)\
 :\1[\t\x20]*([^\n]*)[\t\x20]*$)|(?:^\|([\'\/]{0,2})~?([\.\w]
 +)\:?\4\|[\t\x20]*([^\|\n]*)[\t\x20]*\|$)/gm;

 (note: GoogleGroups word-wrapping may insert a newline or two in the code 
 posted here... if present, remove them to make this work!)

 For your purposes, the most important part of the pattern is: [\.\w], 
 which matches either any character except newline or any alphanumeric 
 character (see [1] for regexp syntax reference). Note that any character 
 expect newline *SHOULD* include spaces, but apparently does not. Try 
 changing the pattern to [\.\w ] (ie., add a trailing space before the 
 closing bracket) and see what happens.

 One important caveat: because spaces in slice names are non-standard, your 
 tiddler content will be less 'portable' to other TW documents (unless, of 
 course, you include the above [[SetCustomSlicePattern]] plugin as well).

Tobias very interesting Linkify plugin might be what you're asking about:

It takes a bit of studying to understand it, but it is very cool. IMO it 
makes even more sense for (personally administered) wikis than the whole 
CamelCase and bracket idea. If a tiddler is mentioned - it get's linked 
automatically.

Re: [tw] Re: [TW5] How do (should) I start a new line in a Tiddler?

2013-12-17 Thread Mat
Various editors allow you to press Shift+Enter for hard line breaks. I 
think this would be a nice(-r) solution, if possible.

But actually, if I understand it right there is now

 and  for block quotes (btw, I'm always unsure if it's  or ) 
(with resevations for googlegroup messing up this here)
 for monospace
 for hard line breaks
double enter for paragraphs
and maybe more.

...am I alone in thinking that this is a bit much? It doesn't feel 
coherent. Even CSS would be more intuitive and generic ; ie {{block{ ... 
{{mono{ ...etc. So how about this idea, using the single and familiar  as 
a markup indicator

block
here's the
block text
block

mono
10 write Hello
20 goto 10;
mono

linebreaks
poetry for
the people
linebreaks

etc

Maybe that repetitive bottom command is not necessary, i.e instead of 
bottom mono just a single  to show end.

Could even be with optional commands for even easier use, ie all these for 
the same result: mono or code or m or c

I think this is a LOT easier to learn (and there's already a LOT of other 
stuff to learn in order to use TW). I think we should strive for as few, as 
genereic and as coherent commands as possible.

:-)

 First off, thank you Jeremy Ruston and to all of those involved with 
 TiddlyWiki. I started using TWC a few months ago and it completely 
 satisfied the way I like to keep my notes and document whatever I happen to 
 be working on. Simply incredible. Then early this month, while looking for 
 ways to tweak the look of my TWC, I came across TW5 and was blown away!

 The question is exactly what's written on the subject line. In TWC, when 
 writing a tiddler, I can hit the enter key and start a new line. In TW5, I 
 can only (afaik) achieve this either by creating a bullet or numbered list. 
 There are cases where I would not want a bullet or numbered list and just 
 simply create a new line. The way I'm doing this now is by typing in br 
 in front of each line. Is there another way of doing this? Not that big of 
 a deal if there isn't, just curious. I understand hitting Enter twice 
 moves you down to a new line, but I'd prefer if I didn't have that much 
 space between my lines.

 I could always experiment using a text expander software or something 
 like that to speed up the br inputs. OR I could make it easy on myself 
 and just get used to numbered lists and bullets.

a) There is no difference between the start and the end tag. So what

You have a point - but is it my lack of imagination or is this relevant to 
anything else other than block? I'm not sure what nested monospace or 
linebreaks mean. Regardless, one could perhaps use the intuitive and 
established practice of repeating the command as is done in e.g bullet list 
levels. Perhaps

block
mary had a
block (or blockblock )
little

lamb



b) IMO typing ``` is much easier  [...and...]  the mono tags interfere 
 with the text in edit mode. 


I agree with the interfere aspect (altho only a minor problem) but while 
```, ,   etc may look aesthetic my point is that these are magic 
commands and that they are too many that have to be learnt individually. 
How can we make these  many formatting commands (or whatever these commands 
are called) more coherent?


c) there may be some text eg:  linebreaks that should not indicate a  
 block, but start a single line quote with the text linebreak ... 
 I did use a space to create a difference between linebreak and  
 linebreak ... As you can see, it is quite errorprone 

 
LOL, maybe someone wants to type  also! I think the number of times 
people write linebreak literally are quite few. That said, I do just 
realize that the  sign is sometimes used in emails to indicate copied 
text. However,  is just an example of course. Could be | , ~ ...  


So imo at the end there will be much more complexity and much more to type 
 :)


Well, complexity can bring simplicity and this is my very aim. Maybe we can 
come up with something quick and easy to remember? One running concern I 
have with TW is that I think we loose potential users because of quirks 
like these. The threshold to get into TW is unfortunately a bit high and 
these commands used from the very beginning are probably particularly 
important in this respect (as opposed to the later thresholds where you're 
forced to dabble with js and stuff.)


However, this makes me wonder if it is possible with *alternative *syntax 
for these features? Both  and something else. Maybe difficult to 
implement, I have no idea, but it would probably appeal to different people 
and thus increase the appeal of TW. I will raise this question on the dev 
board instead and hope to continue the discussion there.

Always thought provoking and valuable thoughts from you Mario.

[tw] TWC: Tabs not render until opened?

2014-02-01 Thread Mat
Is it possible to make tabs, such as in the sidebar, not take up loading 
time until actually opened? I have identified this as one main reason why 
my cell phone loads so slowly. (Actually for my main TW's I use a MainMenu 
consisting of a fET rendering a TreeView http://treeview.tiddlyspot.com/... 
great automated menu, but browser goes into total coma every time I load 
the TW).

I have currently solved it with a 
NestedSlidershttp://tiddlytools.com/#NestedSlidersPluginconstruction where 
the buttons stay fixed (like in e.g a horizontal menu) 
that I picked up from Master Eric at some point in history. The content 
does not render until slider opened because the ... command is used.
In case anyone is interested:

+++[Areas ↴]#panel1:...
brtiddler AreaTab
===
nbsp;nbsp;+++[ToDo↴]#panel2:...
brtiddler ToDoTab
===
nbsp;nbsp;+++[Ref. ↴]#panel3:...
brtiddler Reference
===
DOM move panel1DOM move panel2DOM move panel3

(I have my fET-generated TreeView in the AreaTab.)

This is all pretty neat, but while the buttons stay fixed, the tiddler 
content pushes down one another upon opening. Also, you can't have the 
actual tiddlers referred to opened, i.e in the main tiddler column, as it 
confuses the DOM pointers, and me.

Had it been possible to use a NestedSlider-tree instead of the mentioned 
TreeView all together, then that would be even better. Actually, I'll raise 
that as a separate question.

So, my question is if tabs - or any other solution for that matter - could 
be used instead to prevent slow loading?

Thank you!

:-)

So Erics session yesterday, as part of his incredible Classic Clinic 
weekhttps://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/tiddlywiki/JEVjFzmQhLk,
 
turned out to be with just me and Eric! Incredible - sitting for, was it 2

really a treat to talk with someone who really has the full helicopter 
perspective.

Eric - thank you so much!

P.S) By the way guys, don't forget his tip

I'm thinkin, if we all just put in contributions for long enough his 
fingers will grow roots into his keyboard and then he can't escape and he 
must do TW magic non-stop! Mwa-ha-h!

P.S2) I think there is a clinic today also!

 a spinoff by other users? Is the project still alive?
 Also, I can't seem to find any proper documentation about this project 
 except some bloggers highlighting some of the possibilities.

 Kind regards,

[tw] [5] Questins from very first baby steps with Filters.

2014-03-02 Thread Mat
First baby steps with TW5 
filtershttp://tiddlywiki.com/static/TiddlerFilters.html. 
I'd really appreciate if someone can comment on the following:

Here's a direct copy-paste of some table in tiddler TiddlerFilsters. To my 
surprise it kept the two colum structure when pasting in this post. I guess 
I'll see if the two columns are intact also after posting.

(Note: It may be that all my questions are answered in the tiddler 
TiddlerFilter Formal Grammar but I do not yet understand how to read that 
tiddler at all.)

Thus:

*Filter*

[tag[important]sort[title]]
Ok, looks fair. Does it make sense to refer to tag as a filter, but 
sort rather as a modifier or is there another term, cause it's not a 
filter, is it?

*Explanation given at tiddlywiki.com*

All tiddlers with the tag important sorted by title

[tag[important]!sort[title]]
I get it, but it seems a bit contrieved that what really reads not sort 
does a reverse sorting. What's the reasoning behind this?

All tiddlers with the tag important reverse sorted by title[[one]] [[two]] 
[[three]] +[tag[tom]]
Is a blank space interpreted as OR iff(!) the space resides between 
operands? ... and a space followed by an expressed operator (the +) is just 
a space? What's the general rule here?

Alternatively,  shouldn't there be some kind of surrounding brackets around 
the three first operands? AND is normally not that powerful... but maybe + 
is not a regular AND but a super-AND spreading onto everything?

BTW, are regular brackets, i.e ( and ) allowed at all actually? 

Any of the tiddlers called one, two or three that exist and are tagged with 
tom[[one]] [[two]] [[three]] [tag[tom]]
(no question)
Any of the tiddlers called one, two or three that exist, along with all of 
the source tiddlers that are tagged with tom[tag[tom]] [tag[harry]] 
-[[one][two][three]]
Now, suddenly there ARE brackets for the minus sign, hmm...
And there are no spaces between one, two, three. Does no space make logic 
AND? Is outer brackets required for this?
Why does tag require outer brackets? Shouldn't tag[tom] be enough (making 
the word tag holy).

All tiddlers tagged either tom or harry, but excluding one, two and three
[[MyTiddler]tags[]]
Is this a *special* command or could someone explain how this translates 
into the explanation on the right.
Does tags[] mean all existing tags?
And does written directly after and without space (in this case referring 
the position of tags[]) generally mean that we're talking about something 
concerning what is written before it (in this case [MyTiddler])? Must it be 
an operator written after?

All tiddlers being used as tags on the tiddler MyTiddler
[[MyTiddler]tagging[]]
Isn't this the same as [tag[MyTiddler]] ?
If this means All tiddlers being tagged with MyTiddler then why does the 
name tagging make more sense than the name tagged. 

All tiddlers being tagged with MyTiddler

Will be really grateful if someone answers.

Now curious to see if the two column format holds up. Preparing for mess.

[tw] Re: Application that writes a TiddlyWiki

2014-03-03 Thread Mat
As you will see in a second, I am definitely not a programmer so, FWIW:

I recall that a fast way to search things is with a hash table. This can be 
genereated in advance and need only be generated once, into a static list, 
I think. Then TW instead of documents manages hash values (...not sure if 
that makes sense) so that upon clicking to open a tiddler the document 
get's located and presented. I'm guessing there's only a few links on each 
document so once a document is opened (including the starting document), 
you can scan it to locate all links and then have these open in the 
background (or even lazy loading) so that when the reader clicks a link, 
that doc is already fetched.

(Gobbledygook?)

 Is there an easy-to-follow guide for outputting a fully populated TW file? 
  If not, I can tear the program apart and examine it line by line, but I

 Do you mean that it should have been [sort![title]]? Or [sort[!title]]?

 The reason for not using the first alternative is that I through the 
 prefix was clearer.

 The reason for not using the second alternative is that it would have 
 restricted operands to not be able to start with an exclamation mark.

  


 All tiddlers with the tag important reverse sorted by title[[one]] 
 [[two]] [[three]] +[tag[tom]]
 Is a blank space interpreted as OR iff(!) the space resides between

 I've updated the filter documentation for 5.0.9 to try to explain the way 
 that they are processed a bit better:


 https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/commit/6a63a459686f441d8bcdbe29f894cf671e5177de

  

 Alternatively,  shouldn't there be some kind of surrounding brackets 
 around the three first operands? AND is normally not that powerful... 
 but maybe + is not a regular AND but a super-AND spreading onto everything?


 The filter syntax intentionally doesn't use brackets for grouping, as I 
 don't think non-technical users can readily understand them. The tiddler I 
 linked above attempts to explain the processing algorithm.
  

 BTW, are regular brackets, i.e ( and ) allowed at all actually? 

 Any of the tiddlers called one, two or three that exist and are tagged

 tag requires outer brackets because all filter operators require outer 
 brackets. As explained above, we merge adjacent brackets to indicate an 
 AND.

 Must it be an operator written after?


 The [[MyTiddler]] part starts us off with a list of one entry, the title 
 MyTiddler. The tags operator then returns the tags that are applied to 
 all the currently accumulated tiddlers, in this case just MyTiddler.

 [[MyTiddler]tagging[]]
 Isn't this the same as [tag[MyTiddler]] ?
 If this means All tiddlers being tagged with MyTiddler then why does

 [tag[MyTiddler]] is a synonym for [[MyTiddler]tagging[]], in that both 
 those expressions will return all the tiddlers

[tw] [TW5] Best practice to keep content separated from system?

2014-07-09 Thread Mat
How can I set up a TW5 so that everything but the actual content is public? 

I believe this could be beneficial for many people, particularly newbies, 
because it would make it easy to ask technical questions by referring 
directly to the TW. What happened with my major TWC's is that they 
eventually got so complex and intricate that I couldn't separate out the 
coding bits that I needed help with without including personal information 
etc. (The latter is what I refer to as content).

So, what do you suggest?

Could a TW perhaps be setup in the cloud and, by using nodejs, store the 
content-tiddlers in a separate private folder and the rest in a public one? 
Or maybe TW5 on tiddlyspot? I see no default TW5 on Tiddlyspot though which 
means extra steps that can go wrong.

What should I consider? As far as I can see I'd need to add some kind of 
identifier to separate what I consider content and what is code. Or maybe 
there's some kind of qualitative difference between code and code? A plugin 
is always(?) tagged systemConfig. Maybe widgets have some specific 
characteristic too? Maybe some kind of censorship filter or encryption so 
that you could share it all but with the pure content not accessible? Yes, 
you can of course do this manually (eg tag specific tiddlers so they're 
encrypted) but I'm hoping there could be some automatic way - ?


The background to this issue is that TW5 is just really difficult for me. 
It has made me totally face my incompetence as a programmer again. I got to 
a point with Classic (after years!) where I can use it efficiently thanks 
to various setups (most notably fET and some templates) but with TW5 I'm 
fumbling in the dark once again... A TW5 setup that differentiates between 
structure/system and content would hopefully allow me - and others - to 
manipulate it and, particularly, ask questions in a smooth way.

Thank you

:-)

[tw] [TW5] How do I create a theme?

2014-07-09 Thread Mat
Not 100% sure a theme is the correct word, but I want a setup that I can 
apply to any new TW5 I create. It should include a pagetemplate with that 
has both the regular right sidebar but also a left side and where the 
display of both can be controlled individually (ie both shown at same time, 
or none, or either). Ideally also with some kind of slider top bar, i.e a 
frame (or whatever it should be called) that is invisible until some button 
is clicked to display it.

Additionally I'll want a lot of additional toolbar commands in both 
viewtemplate and edittemplate.

I'm thinking the best would be a separate theme tiddler containing all 
theme specifics. Also, it should (obviously?) not interfer with the 
upgrading procedure.

Thank you!

[tw] [TW5] Nesting in shadowtids?

2014-07-10 Thread Mat
My overall question is how to be able to manipulate shadow tiddlers and 
still have them upgrade easily. Both keeping and eating the cake, in deed.

Is the following possible:

In TWC (and maybe also TW5, I haven't explored yet) you can nest 
stylesheets. I.e you simply add links to other stylesheets inside a 
stylesheet and the processing will ripple through them all in sequence. 

Could this idea be applied also to shadow/system tiddlers? I realize 
stylesheets are more trivial - it only(?) affects the looks of stuff and 
later commands simply override earlier ones. Still, maybe there could be 
some setup that allows prepending or appending code to a tiddler. Upgrading 
the original would then still be trivial. I guess what I'm asking for is if 
this is possible to add in the core(!) templates for shadow/system tiddlers?

What other strategies are there to manipulate shadow/system tids but 
minimize upgrade consequences? I'm just looking into Ton's guides on how to 
add some basic menus and stuff - really basic use cases - but still I find 
I must manipulate shadowtids.

Thank you!

[tw] Autoadding images!

2013-02-14 Thread Mat
An concept idea to make adding pictures a lot easier.. if it works.

I've described it (and other stuff) on my not-quite-launched TidBits 
spacehttp://tidbits.tiddlyspace.com/#[[Autoadd%20pictures%20to%20tiddlers]], 
but here's a copy:

Inserting of images in TW is typically a very manual task, particularly 
 locally stored ones. Here's an idea making it automatic (well...) :

 Keep a local folder (computer or cloud) with //all// pictures for a 
 specific TW. When you save those pictures there, you save them with the 
 name of the tiddler that you'll want them to appear in. 

 Then, in //tiddler template//, perhaps at bottom, theres a 
 {{{[img[localpath/tiddlername]]}}} where the localpath is hard coded but 
 the tiddlername is a generic 'current' reference. 

 For multiple pics in one tiddler save pics in that local folder using eg. 
 format //name (1), name (2)// etc. In the tiddler template there's a script 
 that //if// the link {{{[img[localpath/tiddlername]]}}} exists, then also 
 check {{{...tiddlername+1}}} etc. (The suffix //_(#)// is Windows default 
 when a filename already exists in a folder. I assume other OS'es use 
 similar solution.)

 The main advantage is that you can save pics directly to you folder 
 (always the same one). There's no(?) extra hassle other than naming the 
 image upon saving it - which you're always asked to do anyway!

 No image (or file for that matter!) with the current tiddlers name = 
 nothing displayed. And the idea does of course not exclude common/manual 
 {{{[img[..]]}}} use!


Thoughts? Could anybody help out to implement this?

I think handling images (and videos etc) in TW is very under exploited 
considering the *extreme *popularity of these features in other services 
and web tools.

[tw] Re: Autoadding images!

2013-02-14 Thread Mat
Thanks for your reply Eric!

It seems to me that, except for your specific, narrowly-defined use 
 case, most people will still use the common/manual method of 
 embedding images. 


You're right, people will still need the common/manual methods. But I think 
my quick'n dirtyproposal actually isn't that narrow if you consider how 
often an image at the bottom would simply suffice... especially if appears 
there almost automatically. Besides, it doesn't conflict with the existing 
methods.


needing some kind of image viewer to differentiate the files. 


Well, there is the built in image (thumbnail) display mode in folders. 
Surely this is the case for all OS'es but I think even for the more popular 
cloud storages.


  Then, in //tiddler template//, perhaps at bottom, theres a 
   {{{[img[localpath/tiddlername]]}}} where the localpath is hard coded 
 but 
   the tiddlername is a generic 'current' reference. 

 It seems like you are proposing to embed local path information within 
 the ViewTemplate.  The purpose of the ViewTemplate is to control the 
 *layout* of the rendered tiddler (and also sometimes to trigger macros 
 that have side effects, so that programmed actions can occur whenever 
 a tiddler is displayed). To define configuration values that are used 
 throughout the document and need to persist across sessions, you 
 should store them as slices within the SystemSettings tiddler.  (see 
 http://tiddlywiki.com/#PersistentOptions) 


Thank you! Forgive a non-coder but I have some questions:
1) Why would the images in my suggestion need to 'persist across sessions'? 
ViewTemplate is loaded each session and thereby the images, no?
2) For the simplest user case, as per my proposal, I guess there would be a 
direct image link(?) ie:  [img[file:///path/currenttiddlertitle.png]]
2a) ...is that a macro call? (I thought macro calls are in the format 
macro ?)
2b) Is this what I should put in SystemSettings... and as a slice? I know 
what a slice is but I don't understand how it applies here.
2c) How would I refer to the current tiddler title, generically?

Again, thank you. 
I think

[tw] Macrofy [img[]] ?

2013-02-15 Thread Mat
In ViewTemplate, I hope to include something along the lines of: div 
class='viewer'[img[pathtoimage]]/div so to show an image in every tid.
The above does not work though, but can I macrofy the [img[..]] command 
and then do something like div macro=img pathtoimage'' or perhaps div 
class='img'pathtoimagediv ?
(Actually, what *is *img? It's not a macro, so what do you call what it is?)

I'm probably insulting some fundamental rule with the above question but 
feel free to come with a better suggestion.

Eric kindly gave some pointers 
[link]https://groups.google.com/d/msg/tiddlywiki/1vA8rTacD88/lRAU1BScyJwJabout
 configuration values but I don't undertand how to use this nor if 
it actually is necessary - is it?

[tw] Re: Autoadding images!

2013-02-15 Thread Mat
Thanks for your reply Tobias! Yes, something like blog posts could benefit 
from this. Often fixed layouts. But are you saying it should be limited to 
merely *one *iconic image recurring on different tiddlers? I'm thinking 
more of something to easily include tiddler specific images.

From my perspective, (hidden) slices or fields are a better and more 
 flexible way though... otherwise you have to keep to many things in mind, 
 e.g. using a slice or field you can easily rename the tiddler while keeping 
 the linked image working.


Please elaborate. I don't know if I understand you right, but are you 
saying it would be better to use slice or field values instead of the 
tiddler title? Sounds very interesting - but how is the value set by 
default, ie to achieve the desired automatic display of the image?

[tw] Not TW but really cool layout

2013-02-26 Thread Mat
Not TW, but some food for thought (food for theme?).  I thought this design 
was really cool and intuitive and imagine it would work in TW (particularly 
after seeing Mr.Rustons (his?) layout features for TW5). 

http://daniel-libeskind.com/

A filter in the top field/menu and, below it, a prominent horisontal scroll 
displaying miniatures of the resulting 'tiddlers' under(!) a top field or 
menu. Clicking a 'tiddler' expands it in the center. Obviously, text based 
tiddlers would not be as pretty as pictures but still interesting me thinks.

[tw] Re: @Osmosoft ethical brigades

2013-03-10 Thread Mat
Hi Tobias. Thanks for your always valuable points. I've adjusted a few 
things according now but I'm not confident with all of them so I've added 
you as a member to improve as you see fit.

From my perspective, all that a *plugin space* should hold is a brief 
*SiteInfo 
 *that explains what the plugin does which is tagged '*plugin*'.


- include this *SiteInfo *in the *GettingStarted* using the tiddler 
macro


- make the *SiteTitle* point to *GettingStarted*

  Check x3


- use a short but meaningful *SiteSubtitle*

 I couldn't come up with a snappy summary that made justice to the plugin 
so I didn't do this. 


- tag the plugin not only *systemConfig* but also *excludeLists* and *
excludeSearch*
   - the target spaces really don't need to see it in lists or search 
   results next to actual content

 This I find problematic as it will prevent it from showing up also in the 
plugin space list itself where I do consider it relevant. But also for my 
own spaces I prefer to have included plugins show up in the lists/search.
 

 That's it, no documentation and no additional content, 


Ok, doc deleted. As for included system spaces I'm uncertain what I can 
remove without messing things up so I've left them. But again, I've added 
you so..
 

 Nowadays I even minify plugins using jscompress.com because in this 
 context (from my perspective), it does not need to be readable or have any 
 further documentation other than the plugin header (which points to the 
 documentation).


Hm, not sure I agree with this. Because of my [low] level of competence in 
this I'm happy the more I understand when I look at the code. Also, there 
have been times when I wish to change something minor and this would 
probably not be possible then. I very much appreciate the transparency of 
TW. 

Thank you!

[tw] Re: UPDATE: LinkifyPlugin v.1.0.4

2013-03-11 Thread Mat
A personal THANK YOU to Tobias for this intriguing plugin, and a public 
recommendation to try this out. It is likely not suitable for any 
application of a TW but I find it particularly suitable for one of my main 
TW's ie my major notebook.

As I've noted before, IMO this is really what hypertext is about and, 
frankly, the concept of likify/autolinking makes more sense than the 
special and arbitrary(!) concept of CamelCasing.

 By default text in headings, the header and anything with a class of

If I keep multiple TW's in one folder it seems to be enough with one

Re: [tw] TW5 for exploration... @Jeremy

Thanx for reply.

Your feedback is very useful as I start thinking about end user issues.


Ok, here are a few thoughts starting out with...

Current status:

* I downloaded empty and launched. Is it supposed to show a gray page with 
only buttons [New] and [Save] and a This wiki is not encrypted [Set 
password]? And they appear arbitrarily scattered.
* Clicking the password button and setting it, FF asks me Would you like 
to remember the password on file://? - maybe it's a FF issue but that 
location looks funny (ie file://). Or maybe it's just me. Either way, it 
looks as if some default path was not set.
* After setting the password, the page is still mostly gray. BTW, I really 
like having the option for a password as default!
* Ok clicking [New], I get a glimpse of the layout but probably not 
intentionally; I understand that there is a left frame because the title 
New Tiddler at Tue Mar 12 2013 18:01:55 GMT+0100 is so long that I get a 
horizontal scroll at left bottom. Maybe the date is not necessary in the 
left column?
* Clicking to set the tiddler title, I'd like it if the default text (New 
tiddler) would disappear instead of me having to delete it manually.
* Same with text.
* I really like it that the tags field is above the text. I typically mod 
my TWs to get this.
* Buttons [Delete] and [Done] should probably be right aligned? And 
beatiful icons like in view mode.
* I notice the This wiki is encrypted+buttons remain below the tiddler. 
Maybe these should be placed more discretely in lower left or lower right 
corner of page?
* Clicking [Done] gives an animatino that is a bit funny. It rapidly 
appears to shift down+right about an inch and back up again. No biggie but 
a bit odd.
* Creating a few more tids and then clicking one of the prominent tags 
gives a menu/list. I think it is a bit of an overkill to repeat the tag in 
the top of that list as the very tagis visible just above the list. No 
biggie tho.
* (Also a bit overkill to list the name of the very tiddler you're in. Why 
would you want to click that, from there?) 
* BTW, overall nice and clean appearence of site. Neutral gray background 
and clean white tids with slight shade for 3d. Nice Edit and Close icons.
* Re-editing a tid, I miss a Cancel button.
* (...and, being a regular TW user, I can't help but wonder how all those 
other commands will be avalable, *link, references,* etc).
* The animation when closing a tiddler made me smile :-)
* Double click to edit seems disabled?
* 

Further ideas:

* Appearence is a somewhat undeveloped aspect in TW. Most TW's are very 
similar looking. Assuming we/you want more laypeople and non-tech sites 
based on TW, I think it should be easier to manipulate these things. For 
instance, 
* Personally, I typically add a lot more commands for my TW's such as New 
here, the combined done/close and cancel/close etc (asf

this is just temporary of course.)
* Clicking [Save] gives popup message Download changes / Your browser only 
supports manual saving [snip]. At bottom of popup theres link Right-click 
to save changes - so I'm supposed to right-click-download it from my own 
local copy? Is it some setting in FF
* But, ok, right-click-save it is; In deed unrecognizable name (as 
described in popup). Renaming, save. This of course results in two files.
* ...opening new file gives message TiddlyFox: Do you want to enable 
TiddlyWiki file saving capability for file:///C:/.../tw5test.htm (hm, 
haven't seen extension htm for a long time). I think I saw some 
discussion on TiddlyFox to make it so you don't have to answer this every 
time. Maybe I misunderstood it but, regardless, I hope this will be the 
case of course. (BTW in these opening steps I'm also asked to enter the 
password. Seems to work as intended and appears very tight/good.)
* Opening the new one still gives no access to previously made tiddlers.
* Some minor stress testing works well (Doing Ctrl+ and Ctrl-, some 
internatinoal characters, very long titles, )
* ...but, bug, it seems I can create multiple tiddlers with the same name. 
However, opening one for edit also opens the other one and only whichever 
is saved last sets what is actually saved.
* Problem: tiddler column holds from top down tiddlers aaa, bbb and ccc. 
The last, ccc, is out of sight at bottom. All are tagged 'bbb'. Clicking on 
tag 'bbb' in aaa shows list, but clicking 'ccc' does not put focus on ccc.

Further Thoghts/Ideas/wishes:

[tw] Possible to make RSS reader?

2013-03-14 Thread Mat
With Google Reader sadly shutting 
downhttp://googleblog.blogspot.de/2013/03/a-second-spring-of-cleaning.htmlsoon,
 I'm wondering if it is possible (read: simple) to use TW instead? 
I've seen stuff on RSS and feeds but always thought of that as too advanced 
for me so I'm wondering if there perhaps already exist some kind of 
solution or parts of a solution? Or maybe even solutionS - and in that 
case, what are the differences among them?

And would these things work on TiddlySpace? Would be cool if it is possible 
to set up topical public newschannels there.

Thanks!

Re: [tw] How to create autolink instead of using CamelText (WikiWord)?

Yes, LinkifyPlugin does exactly that along with some fine tuning options

I find this concept very exciting and frankly more natural than the 
arbitrary CamelCase idea.

  Dear Tiddlers,

 I just used TiddlyWiki, and I wonder is there anyway to automatically 
 create Internal Link between a word or a group of word and a Note with 
 those words as title?

 I found that there are 2 ways in TiddlyWiki:


- Use *CamelText *such as *ThisIsAPost* to be automatically linked to 
a note which has *ThisIsAPost* as title.
- Use bracket to cover words to link to the post with that title such 
as:* [[This Is A Post]]* to link to the post *This Is A Post*


 Is there any others way in which whenever I type This Is A Post in one 
 note, it will *automatically linked *with the post This Is A Post?

[tw] Re: Multiple tag filtering

2013-03-26 Thread Mat
Check out 
http://www.tiddlytools.com/#MatchTagsPlugin

I think it is also possible to use core commands for complex filters but 
I'm uncertain of the syntax. Also, in case it's tiddlyspce you're using I 
think there are yet further filters available.

In the growing tw.org http://tiddlywiki.org/#Filters (mainly thanks to 
Tobias Beer I think) there are some basic explanations on filters and 
related. It would be nice if more complex examples could be shown.

 And that will list all of those from the UK. 

 I also can do this : 

 list filter [tag[band]] 

 To list only bands (as opposed to solo artists). 

 But... how would I pull up a list of tiddlers that have BOTH the UK *and*

 Is it possible? 

 I've started going through my tags, changing them to solo_USA and band_USA

[tw] slice containing ]] interferes with tiddler [[...]]

2013-03-26 Thread Mat
Tiddler, say AAA, containing slice:

|slice|[[alias|some tiddler name]]|

trying to apply tiddler macro:
 
tiddler [[AAA::slice]]

...but this doesn't work. I'm guessing the ]] in the slice value interferes 
with the tiddler macro. (Or maybe it's the | pipe ?)

As far as I undertstand this means conflicting core functionality for a 
pretty simple use case.

Any way around this (or do I misunderstand something)?

Thank you!

 My intention was to target ordinary web users who may be interested in

Yup, agree with the compliments here; nice clip and TW5 looks beautiful!

Given that ...
* you ask for feedback on the clip 
* your stated target group is web users who are not familiar with TW and 
that the purpose is to encourage them to try it out
* and that the clip is intended as a standalone intro to tw5 from its 
creator (ie. there won't be many more such intros from you)
...here's my feedback:

I agree with your own reflections that the clip should be shorter/snappier. 
TW is such an amazing and general tool that it is a difficult to see the 
light right away - so in order to *hook *people I believe it would make 
sense to *highlight some benefits* with TW already at the start of the 
clip. I would suggest you insert a screen with a bullet list of concrete 
examples and benefits for the above stated target group. Perhaps some of 
the application examples listed on tw.com? A glance at what, say, Evernote, 
Basecamp and other services mention as their benefits could perhaps give a 
sense of what people need/appreciate.

Second, the clip, nice and friendly as it is, is of course also very 
amateurish and it does not reflect how mature or sophisticated TW is. 
Someone new could mistake it for merely a (very) neat hack. Now, we know 
they're totally wrong... but they don't. I believe an introductory clip for 
something like this must convey *credibility.* How would they otherwise 
know how great it is? Maybe you can mention that we're X thousand members 
in the tw group. TW has been developed for Y years. Z thousand copies of 
the earlier versions of TW have been downloaded. They must know they will 
not waste their time with something that is abandoned in 6 months. Chest 
beating is not only deserved but also *necessary *to convince many (most?) 
people.

Also, if it is possible to use on tablets and/or smartphones, then please 
show this in the clip. A quick flash of a tablet in the first one or two 
minutes.

I notice the link below the clip (good!) but I suggest a* call for action *at 
the end of the video too, ie. to go to the website and download it. Maybe 
it's possible, like on youtube, to put a physical url on the clip for 
clicking.

Ok, hope this is of use to make people try TW5.

in deed very minor... but still it's at the very tw.com site:
your tiddler at http://tiddlywiki.com/#TiddlerSlicing

2013-04-07 Thread Mat
Possibly old hat for some, but if you don't know about cintanotes 
http://cintanotes.com/it's worth checking out. @Jeremy - maybe something 
can serve as inspiration for TW5?

I have found myself using this parallel with TW because it is so darn easy 
to add notes to it plus it really has a practical next-to-no-nonsense 
interface. The adding of copied notes is not unlike the old tiddlysnip but 
even more direct. BTW, tiddlysnip or equivalent is a feature I really miss 
in TW. Ironically, it is a bit of a hassle to perform the very main feature 
of TW, ie. to add a note to it... :-/

Another feature cintanotes has is it lets you categorize tags and list them 
in these categories. Can be seen in screen cast at above link. [1] 

:-)


[1] Tobias has the wonderful and powerful TagSearch 
http://tobibeer.tiddlyspace.com/#TagSearchplugin for categorizing tas. 
It's power comes with complexity tho.

 http://www.themeshock.com/clean-css3-boxes


 How to do it?

 1) For the entire tiddler, add the required markup to the ViewTemplate.

 Alternatively you can use template tiddlers and transclusion, e.g.

 [[template]]:
 html
 div class=outer
 div class=innter
 img class=photo src=../$1
 /div
 /div
 /html

 and then use...

 tiddler template with: somefolder/image.jpg

 This won't however work easily when you want wiki content in the box. So 
 there might be some yet-to-be-coded-plugin-idea lurking around.

 2) add the required css to your StyleSheet tiddler.

 Cheers, Tobias.

[tw] Some further TW5 thoughts/opinions

2013-05-13 Thread Mat
In addition to some previously expressed 
thoughtshttps://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!searchin/tiddlywiki/TW5$20Mat/tiddlywiki/0nmhoDZvIG0/wC0RsY87fbEJof
 mine, here are a few more:

* Avoid all dead links in empty file.

* tag systemConfig ought to be renamed into something less scary and 
informative, perhaps plugin or possibly autostart. (I think we're a bit 
home blind but consider how awkward it would be if, say, evernote or 
facebook required that users kept track of weird sounding magic terms).

(...and if that suggestion didn't cause uncomfort, maybe this will ;-)

* I'd love multiple tag fields, ie for different types of tags because:
- it would simplify filtering a lot (I think).
- it would allow users to tag *plugins *freely without mutilating the 
original tags
- and the obvious, it would allow you to generally separate between tag 
types
I get the impression a multiple tag fields feature is more suitable for 
core than as a plugin becaue it is such an integral feature. I've seen 
requests for this but there hasn't really been any solution. Tobias did 
create TagSearch http://tobibeer.tiddlyspace.com/#TagSearch plugin and, 
wonderful as it is, it seems to be a circumvention to make the best of what 
is possible. I can't comment on how to code this but interface wise - if 
you allow me to be a tad too intricate for this bullet list - tag fields 
(eg. in searches) could perhaps be on the form tiddler.tags3.contain... 
(for tag field 3), and the default field could perhaps be reached both via 
tags1 and tags. A plugin might be the more appropriate way to give 
aliases (eg Prioritytags, Systemtags etc). In edit view, adding a tag 
field could be with a simple [+] (with label add tag field) close to the 
default single tag field. Well, you get it. Sorry if this bullet point is 
too intricate and if I'm using the wrong lingo in my layman descriptions.

* Not urgent but both TW5 and classic TW should have a logo (-s?). Maybe 
there is one, but then it is clearly not prominent enough. I think 
TiddlySpace has those circles as a logo, but not quite sure. I understand 
the user should not have to *deal *with that logo (ie to keep it visible or 
manually remove it etc) but it could really be just on tw.com and not be 
downloaded - just like all the specific tiddlers there are not included in 
empty.html. MediaWiki has their absolutely brilliant [[*]] (with a nice 
looking sun flower instead of the * ), just to mention an example. Logos 
are a marketing tool to create recognition for a product/brand etc.

* On five.tiddlywiki.com, I like it that the menu has now moved to the 
right side. But it all is aligned left creating a large empty area on even 
even my 15 screen. Maybe it should be centered? BTW, I also really like 
the clean interface there in general. Really nice.

[tw] Optional multiple tag fields (@Jeremy)

2013-05-17 Thread Mat
In a prevous 
threadhttps://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/tiddlywiki/MaPEEqtavoE,
 
I proposed the idea with optional multiple tag fields for TW5 and Jeremy 
answered:

Interesting. It sounds as though you are envisaging multiple fields on a 
 tiddler each with the behaviour of the existing 'tags' field, and the 
 ability to specify which tags field is used for a given operation. I think 
 that's possible but I'd be keen to make sure that I understand your 
 intended use cases better: can you give me a few examples of operations 
 that would be easier to accomplish with this feature?



Ok, this has been an effort to write and I fear it'll be an effort to read 
but perhaps amusing. My problem is that I'm not a programmer so I'm 
probably using wrong terminology and have quite possibly misunderstood a 
thing or two about how TW is built up. However, I bring the perspective of 
an experienced TW user who has enjoyed but struggled with TW for a few 
years now. Maybe I (and surely many others here) can be seen as a link 
between you TW wizards and average Joes who justs want a good insert 
purpose of TW but who gets scared off when he realizes that TW without 
coding barely is possible and that he really is dependent on the generosity 
of the board members explaining stuff all the time. So, the central theme 
of my post here is about simplifying things for average Joe, one concept 
being the suggestion for optional multiple tag fields / tag categories.

So, operation where optional multiple tag fields would simplify. For sake 
of explanation we have a TW on Tolkien stuff. Tiddler Frodo can have tags 
like the following: ring bearer, hobbit, protagonist, Elijah Woods, 
The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers, @Jeremy, and N more tags 
- i.e any association the author (or a group of people!) considers relevant.

Thus, tags are plenty, sprawly and arbitrary - though all quite relevant 
and realistic.

Example operation: Transclude the book titles. They are indeed among the 
tags but to get that info out you need to seek up which of the tags that in 
turn are tagged, say, book. Perhaps not difficult for a coder like 
yourself but I think few non-coders would know what to do. Multiple tag 
categories would in this example omit the need to search all together 
(assuming tiddler Frodo has tagcategory books). The search was replaced 
by (optional) manual work at the time of adding the tags (or later). Note 
also that there need be no actual book tiddlers for this in contrast to 
current solution that requires book tiddlers tagged 'book'.

More complex and general problem (still quite realistic): List all 
characters of books (ie characters tagged with book names). Each bookname 
is tagged 'book'. You pretty much have to be a programmer to solve this. A 
merely experienced user might use fET, but if the number of books are 
arbitrary (i.e can't be hard coded) this case is actually not possible to 
solve with fET without adding special code. With tag category book in 
each character tiddler, a transclusion would be simple.

While you asked specifically for operations that simplify and the above 
are only one or two examples, the following are mostly not operations but I 
belive they do illustrate situations where (optional) multiple tag fields 
are beneficial for non-coders:

Using many(!) tags is problematic in current TW and problems increase with 
the number of tags. But if TW is to fit around your brain then just like 
some subjects in your brain has many associations, so do some tiddlers 
require many tags. It is a limitation to feel that I'd better not. One 
specific problem is (was?) slowness as a consequence of many tags, 
especially for various searches that have to scan all tiddlers and all 
tags. Categories of tags could maybe smoothen this. 

Further, regular databases often have many, many attributes and values. Not 
incidentally, the user friendly way to add an item in a database is 
typically a form(!). A tiddler with (optional) tag categories would not be 
all unlike a form with attributes and values. I'm not sure pure programmers 
are fond of forms but it is not a coincidence that many user friendly 
databases has this view for adding and presenting information.

It's even more problematic with plenty *and *sprawly tags. Eg Tobias TagSearch 
plugin http://tobibeer.tiddlyspace.com/#TagSearch shows such a 'sprawl' 
and how categorization solves it. Prio tags here and task tags over there. 
Not to mention public tags for visitors here and private tags there...

...and optional tag category fields would 'operationally' open up for 
commands in eg viewtemplate to don't display tag field named 'unofficial'. 
Currently you must tag each individual unofficial tag with excludeLists 
(wich also forces you to turn mere tags into tiddlers). But excludeLists is 
a specific example. Operations can be of any type on category fields.

Apropo that tagging tags forces you to turn them into tiddlers; when

[tw] Something like core macro tagChooser but for specific tag instead of all tags?

2013-05-27 Thread Mat
Core macro tagChooser presents (if I understand it right) a list with *all 
*tags, 
except for thos tagged with some certain tag (eg. excludeLists) and if you 
click on a tag it gets included in the tags field when in edit mode.

I hope it - or some other macro/plugin - can do this but instead of showing 
*all *tags it filters them to only show tags that in turn are tagged with 
some certain tag (say, includeLists)

Suggestions?

Thank you!

:-)

[tw] Re: Something like core macro tagChooser but for specific tag instead of all tags?

2013-05-27 Thread Mat
Thank you but I was vague in my request: I wish for it to be possible to 
use in edit mode (tagChooser can only be used there if I understand 
correctly).

I did consider the excellent TagSearch but remembered from earlier tests 
that it did not work in edit mode. But your post made me test it again - 
and it actually does work to some degree. It does not update the tags field 
so to reflect the checked tags in the tagsearch window and this(?) causes 
problems when saving so the old tags are saved again.

@Tobias - dare I ask for an update on this? Having it accessible both from 
edit and view mode would be really useful.

Thank you!

Ha! That was fun!

3) I gave a tiddler a name with Swedish/German letters and clicked Done (no 
problem)  Save Changes  automatic download dialogue etc. Opening the 
saved file the umlaut letter is not correct (an o with two dots becomes ö )
4) When trying the direct online save in IE (ver 9, very old I guess), it 
does not open a (browser) save dialogue box but instead TW gives a message:
RIGHT CLICK HERE to download/save main TiddlyWiki file
Downloading/saving main TiddlyWiki file

just my old IE (v9)
Normally, I use FFlatest and Win7.

[tw] Conditional transclusion of text?

2013-06-11 Thread Mat
Via a forEeach I get:

*tiddlerA
** contentA
*tiddlerB
**contentB
etc

The second level bullets are from a simple tiddler tiddler.title 
inside the fET. However, sometimes there is no content resulting in empty 
second-levels. How can I prevent this (inside the fET)? For example, can I 
put a condition in the tiddler macro to test if there is any text, but also 
format the output to return ** and \n only if the condition is true - and 
if it's not true it returns nothing?

Thank you!

2013-06-12 Thread Mat
Found this: tiddler {{SomeTiddler.text!=0?SomeTiddler:}}

This works by itself so I'm trying to put in in the fET (which usually does 
not have a problem with simple tiddler macros):

forEachTiddler where 'tiddler.tags.contains(foo)' 
write '
*[[+tiddler.title+]]\n
** tiddler {{+tiddler.title+.text!=0?+tiddler.title+: $)) \n'


this gives error ( forEachTiddler ...: SyntaxError: missing ; before 
statement )

but, as explained initially, my hope is for the result to be either *nothing 
*or **text\n
I.e the bullets and newline are included in the result from the tiddler 
macro. Maybe it's possible using with: and sending in bullets and newline 
as parameters...?

...or if there's any better solution all together (hopefullystill with the 
fET tho as it in actual application it contains more.)

Thoughts?

 The second level bullets are from a simple tiddler tiddler.title 
 inside the fET. However, sometimes there is no content resulting in empty 
 second-levels. How can I prevent this (inside the fET)? For example, can I 
 put a condition in the tiddler macro to test if there is any text, but also 
 format the output to return ** and \n only if the condition is true - and 
 if it's not true it returns nothing?

 Thank you!

[tw] Re: Can't import local TiddlyWiki file to Tiddlyspot.com

2013-06-17 Thread Mat
As mentioned a few weeks back uploading to tiddlyspot worked pretty well 
with FFlatest but today it stopped working. This most likely has 
something to do with it:

Unrelated to TW, I decided to uninstall Java after getting some supposed 
alerts about java vulnerabilities on a site. I suspected they were not real 
java alerts so disregarded them but as I've read java isn't really a 
necessity I figured I'd just uninstall it and 'see what happens'. I did - 
and one thing that appearently happened is tiddlyspot uploading stopped 
working. (So - is local java necessary for TW and/or tiddlyspot?)
Ok, so re-installed java. Unfortunately it still does ot work.

This makes me conclude that the problems lie in new java updates. I'm 
pretty sure I had one of the later java updates when it until earlier 
today. There was a big hullabaloo some months ago about a java 
vulnerability and they quickly released a 7.x version which I'm sure I 
installed. There have been a few minor updates since, I believe.

 With FF java is _not_ needed, nor is it used for saving. Saving is done 
 with TiddlyFox, if installed. If TiddlyFox is not installed, FF can't save 
 to a file.

 As browser vendors started to restrict there security measures, there 
 where some workarounds, to manually grant a file TW privileged file 
 access  rights. imo this setting was per file name. They totally removed 
 this possibility with a later FF version. FF v21 shouldn't even contain be 
 the code that made this possible. 

 IMO if latest FF (v21) did upload one of your files to tiddlyspot, they 
 would consider it a bug.

A big thank you Mark S! This has actually been a problem for many years for 
me, but you solved it!!!

For anyone less advanced (like myself) reading this, I use this inside a 
forEachTiddler to list tiddlers titles but also their contents on the line 
below. The problem has been that no content gives an empty line rather than 
no line causing less-than-pretty lists. Thanks to Mark S my lists are now 
tight and clean!

 tiddler echoTiddler with: {{
var stuff=store.getTiddlerText('$1');
stuff ? $2+stuff.split(\n).join(\n$2) :  ;

 Also make the echoTiddler described previously.

 Now you can call bulletShooter like this:

 tiddler bulletShooter with: test2 '**'

 Where test2 is the name of the tiddler with the text you want to bullet 
 and '**' is the type of bullet to apply.

 Have fun,

If you use Google Drive desktop app, ie. not via browser, or I guess you

When you use it this way, you can just use the regular saveChanges

Hope that is of any value.

 I thought of the following schema:
 * Keep main wiki on google drive
 * In the tablet, for each session, create a new wiki on google drive
 * After updating in the tablet, import into the main wiki.

 This avoid accidentally updating from two devices and causing conflicts

[tw] Tables with tab space instead of pipe?

2013-07-21 Thread Mat
This idea for tables feels so simple that I'm probably missing something 
obvious, so FWIW:

Instead of - or at least optionally to -  using pipe (|) as the 
separator, how about using tab space? This way you can make a frameless 
table in edit mode which is converted to regular framed cells table in 
viewmode. I can think of some pretty simple rules for this conversion (ie 
of the type a cell starts wherever text is preceeded by a tab, except 
newline which... etc.)

(BTW, exactly how do you make a tab space in TW? I'm forced to open some 
other program and copy paste.)

On Monday, July 22, 2013 10:43:23 AM UTC+2, Jeremy Ruston wrote:

 I'm not keen on giving the tab character special meanings within markup 
 (other than classing it as whitespace), because it breaks the printability

 anchor for formatting).


Actually, it's the other way around (unless I misunderstand you): Tab 
character was explicitly created to make tables. It is the de facto 
international standard to make tables. But maybe I do misunderstan you 
because I don't get what breakign the printability of wikitext source means 
- if you print source text then tab characters are printed as well, no?

 

 The other problem is that it is hard to type a tab character on many 
 systems (eg iphone, ipad).


Tru, altho pipe is also a bit iffy. This gives me ain idea for a plugin 
(which, if I could code...) - I've found that you, in edit mode, can 
include tab characters before the pipe sign and not have them show up in 
view mode. This makes it possible to create tables that are more easy on 
the eye in edit mode. A plugin could convert pipes into pipes+tabs on 
done'ing the tiddler so that the next time you open it in edit mode it 
includes tab characters! It could for instance use the header row as a 
template for cell width or perhaps use the longest cell content per 
column as template.
IF that stil would break the printability of wikitext sournce, then maybe 
it's possible to store some local variable or array with column width that 
re-generates this display...in edit mode... (...if that is at all 
possible...)

 

 Having said that, I'd definitely like to evolve an easier to type and read 
 format for tables. MediaWiki lets tables be typed as a cell on each line, 
 which I like a lot.


Interesting. Possibly a decent route - but still very much a compromise 
from a user perspective. It misses out on the very 2D essence of a table 
IMO.
 

As to handling the tab key on desktop browsers, my current thinking is that 
 for the majority of users the simplest behaviour is for the tab key to 
 always move between fields, and never to insert tab characters. As with TW 
 classic, we'll need to provide some way for advanced users to insert tab 
 characters when they want them.


Just a note here: In Cinta Notes, you jump between title, text and tags 
with tab key - but you can also get there directly with up/down arrow keys! 
Very convenient actually and it creates a more connected feeling between 
the fields. (Related: you can't tab key backwards.)

Keyboard shortcuts are moving up my list for TW5. My aim is to allow it to 
 be entirely driven by the keyboard, and to allow a high degree of 
 configurability by users. You will, for instance, be able to navigate the 
 tag pills and their associated lists.


Interesting. I don't know how this navigation will be manifested, but again 
arrow keys for navigation may be worth considering as an option.

 First off, when I wrote tab space I mean only pressing the tab button

 Is your point still valid then? (The center / right align is thus not 
 relevant).

 Are there other places where tabs are used in the code?

 Regardless, if necessary it would be easy (?) to use some type of 
 indicator where this should be valid. Perhaps somting like in current 
 tables where you have a marker for the headline row etc

 Also, I'm kind of having TW5 in mind where backward compatability is so 
 far less important anyway.

 The current pipe way is just very messy for anything but the simplest of 
 tables, IMO.

 Aha, will try! The ideal, for me, would be to have tab move between 
 fields - or rather, from title, to tags, to text (it currently moves from 
 title to text) - and then behave like tab character. Do you know if this is 
 possible?

[tw] Re: Some further TW5 thoughts/opinions

2013-07-23 Thread Mat
Another wanted feature (also for TW classic):

To somehow see if a tiddler contains text or not without having to open it. 
The need arises from the fact that tiddler names are both tiddlers and tags 
and often serve as mere headings/holders (eg in TreeView menu) which forces 
you to open it to check. I know some poeple add a * or some such to the 
name to indicate content but it is a too frequenct phenomenon to not have 
automatic. Here are some ideas:

* include info on this in the hover lable (is that the correct term?). 
Currently it shows tiddler name, tiddler subtitle and date, eg TiddlyWiki 
- Jermolene, March 20. 2012,  13:40. It could instead be perhaps read:  
TiddlyWiki [text] ...  and TiddlyWiki [empty] ... or some such.
What is less good with this solution is that you must actively hover. Also, 
this hover info is different in various places (eg ShadowMenu. And plugins 
can create it's own info, as in the case of TreeView that merely sttes that 
it's a link to.. ).

* We have text formats to indicate differnt types, ie *NonExistingLink* *
ExistingLink* and there is also *ExistingLink** *(eg 
herehttp://tiddlywiki.com/#Configuration). 
I think it would be elegant to extend this latter variant to also indicate 
an existing link without text. This is probably the most elegant solution 
to this issue, IMO.
 (BTW, in Shadow tab, it is not clear why some are bold and some not bold?).

* Another variant could be to refine the manually appended + that some 
people use into autmatically including, say ° at the end of empty tiddler 
links: *ExistingButNoContent*° - the aim is something that is invisible 
enough so that you only see it when looking for it.

 * Avoid all dead links in empty file.

 * tag systemConfig ought to be renamed into something less scary and 
 informative, perhaps plugin or possibly autostart. (I think we're a bit 
 home blind but consider how awkward it would be if, say, evernote or 
 facebook required that users kept track of weird sounding magic terms).

 (...and if that suggestion didn't cause uncomfort, maybe this will ;-)

 * I'd love multiple tag fields, ie for different types of tags because:
 - it would simplify filtering a lot (I think).
 - it would allow users to tag *plugins *freely without mutilating the 
 original tags
 - and the obvious, it would allow you to generally separate between tag 
 types
 I get the impression a multiple tag fields feature is more suitable for 
 core than as a plugin becaue it is such an integral feature. I've seen 
 requests for this but there hasn't really been any solution. Tobias did 
 create TagSearch http://tobibeer.tiddlyspace.com/#TagSearch plugin and, 
 wonderful as it is, it seems to be a circumvention to make the best of what 
 is possible. I can't comment on how to code this but interface wise - if 
 you allow me to be a tad too intricate for this bullet list - tag fields 
 (eg. in searches) could perhaps be on the form tiddler.tags3.contain... 
 (for tag field 3), and the default field could perhaps be reached both via 
 tags1 and tags. A plugin might be the more appropriate way to give 
 aliases (eg Prioritytags, Systemtags etc). In edit view, adding a tag 
 field could be with a simple [+] (with label add tag field) close to the 
 default single tag field. Well, you get it. Sorry if this bullet point is 
 too intricate and if I'm using the wrong lingo in my layman descriptions.

 * Not urgent but both TW5 and classic TW should have a logo (-s?). Maybe 
 there is one, but then it is clearly not prominent enough. I think 
 TiddlySpace has those circles as a logo, but not quite sure. I understand 
 the user should not have to *deal *with that logo (ie to keep it visible 
 or manually remove it etc) but it could really be just on tw.com and not 
 be downloaded - just like all the specific tiddlers there are not included 
 in empty.html. MediaWiki has their absolutely brilliant [[*]] (with a nice 
 looking sun flower instead of the * ), just to mention an example. Logos 
 are a marketing tool to create recognition for a product/brand etc.

 * On five.tiddlywiki.com, I like it that the menu has now moved to the 
 right side. But it all is aligned left creating a large empty area on even 
 even my 15 screen. Maybe it should be centered? BTW, I also really like 
 the clean interface there in general. Really nice.

   Hello,

   i modified my monkeygtd to support sequenced-Actions. I use the
   normal Tag-Feature to Control the sequence of the actions. When i
   create an action that depends on another action i just Tag it with
   the name of the first one, and set it to Future. When the first
   Action is marked as Done or, if it is a Ticker, is marked as
   Actioned (only works for one-time-Ticklers). the second action is
   modified from Future to Next. There is no GUI-Support for this, i
   have to edit the Actions and type in manualy the name of the Actions
   in the Tags-Field.

   Maybe with an Example its more clear to understand:

   First
   Action:
   Action 1

   Can be done when Action 1 is finished:                   Action
   2      Action3

   Can be done when A2 and A3 are finished:                      Action
   4

   I create the actions like this

   Action 1, a normal Next Action

   Action 2 and Action 3 Future Actions Tagged with [Action 1]

   Action 4 Future action Tagged with [Action 2] [Action 3]

   - Now, when i finish Action 1, the code searches for Actions with
   the Tag Action 1, and finds Action 2 and Action 3.
   - For each Action the code searches if all required Actions (only
   Action 1 in this case) are done. If this is true, the Action (here
   Action 2 and 3) are moved from Future to Next
   - If i undo Action 1, Action 2 and Action 3 are moved from Next to
   Future

   - When Action 2 is finished, again all Actions with the Tag Action
   2 are searched, in this case just Action 4.
   - The Code starts searching all Actions and Ticklers that are
   referenced in the Tag-field of Action 4. It finds Action 2 as done,
   but Action 3 as not done, so the Action 4-Action is NOT moved from
   Future to Next
   - Now Action 3 is done, too.
   - The Code again searches for all Actions and Tickers that are
   referenced in the Tag-field of Action 4. Now it finds both Actions
   (Action 2 and Action 3) as Done so Action 4  is moved from
   Future to Next.

   The visualisation in the GUI for this solution is not very good. In
   the Project-Dashboard the Actions are not ordered in the right way,
   and  you can not see that there are dependencies between the actions.
   But for me this is ok, its just for auto-nexting one of the future
   actions, so that i dont have to do a check of the Projects with no
   next action-View. Or Project Dashboard every time i finish an Action
   that is part of a Project.

   maybe there is still a performance problem with this, but for my (at

Re: Waiting actions

2009-01-13 Thread Mat

 I like the idea of a drop down List. The TaggerPlugin suggested by Mat
 may help. But i think that the list of tags should be filtered
 somehow.

 E.g. only Tags that are used together with Action- or Tickler-Tags
 should be displayed.

Maybe I misunderstand, but for actions it should be enough with that
they belong to the project, no?

I imagine this should be possible to implement just like specifying a
Realm filters out which Areas that are presented in a Project tiddler.

P.S Regarding my attempted thread name change; One reason I did not
find this until just today was because of the not so informative old
thread title.

Item 'layout'

2009-01-20 Thread Mat

Yes, but from a real estate perspective I'm wondering if the jump to
another project feature is justified there. I mean, I very rarely
jump between projects that way.
...while I *do* more often realize a that, I should recategorize
something as a project or an action etc. Now, the latter feature does
exist but only for some types and considering that it can only be one
thing at a time, it is yet again a real estate issue to have it as
separate buttons instead of a dropdown.
Also aesthetically I think it'd make more sense to kind of have the
information 'about' the item itself (meta information, if you will)
such as realm and what type of item it is, grouped up in the right
corner,and the actual content - the meat - in the center, keeping the
user with his eyes on the ball so to say.
Just an opinion. Or two ;-)


While on real estate;
For a project tiddler, I must keep the browser window maximized or the
(indented) subproject of.. field pushes the associated contact to
the row below it. I humbly question the indentation. For an action
tiddler, the newline seems to be permanent (at least on my 17
monitor)

Also, any moderately lengthty project title pushes or breaks the
Updated 2 days ago  (created  2 days ago)  to a newline too.

Thank you

/Mat

Re: Waiting actions

2009-01-29 Thread Mat

Just a little followup form a user;

I love the concept of SequencedActionsPlugin but in practice use I've
found it too iffy with all the additional manual work it requires to
write or copy-paste the names of actions as tags etc etc.

For it to be practical, I say it would have to be integrated more -
and I really hope it can be because I believe the concept of it can be
very time saving. (Following core GTD in combo with mGTD otherwise
means not updating 'future actions' into 'next actions' more than once
a week otherwise. What projects can actually progress at such a slow
speed?) Something like SequencedActionsPlugin would really allow us to
do this admin work where it belongs, i.e during the weekly review.
IMO  ;-)


Some thoughts on integrating it;

* A checkbox-type-dropdown menu next to each action, listing all other
actions that same project. I guess the dropdown-menu could be present
both in an actual action tiddler, but also in e.g project tiddlers
next to each listed action. There are typically not that many, and I
think 99% of the need should be covered if there is such a menu for
only Next, Future and Waiting actions... or even 90% if it was only on
the Future actions even...

...but, more importantly, some way in 'quick add'. Actually - actions
inserted there *are* typically already more or less in order, so maybe
pressing create now could by default append the previously listed
action as a tag to the following one. Or a 'middle step' before
pressing create now - i.e a button saying action sequencing or
such to do this and resulting only in changes in the quick add text
field, i.e nothing was yet actually created.

Another thought would perhaps be to simply have each row in quick
add numbered(!) - either manually as items are added there or simply
haveing a permanent numbering of each row (e.g permanent numbers
showing outside the text-field) for each row. Thus, inserting a row
number as a tag, actually represents the whole action (name) at that
position.

...or, an invisible prefix to the names. I.e as it is not, actions
are presented in alphabetical order. It is of course already possible
to e.g number items so that they are presented in desired order, but
it is not very elegant for many reasons. Ann invidible prefix would be
more elegant, and of course in combo with the system automatically
resetting an action from future to next as soon as the previous
next was done.





...and for mGTD 8.5 I suggest...  ;-)

Drag-n-drop feature, i.e in project view one can smoothly just
rearrange listed actions. Same inside the quick add tool.


Thanks

[tw] Re: Printouts w/o TW title

2009-09-01 Thread Mat

On demand - a clarification:

(actually, I didn't get Marks kind suggestion to work ;-)


For this particular TW I'm using Mr. Bairds wonderful MonkeyPirateTW
[1]

What I want on my printouts is simply that the top 'item' on the print
out is the first tiddler right away.

It would also be OK, but not necessary, if the actually printed first
tiddlers title is also suppresed.

Testing with Marks suggestion in the StyleSheetPrint, i.e: .title
{display:none}
and alternatively testing with: #title {display:none;}
as per the following, does not does not affect the title as desired
nor in any other way, as far as I can tell.

/*{{{*/
@media print {
#mainMenu, #sidebar, #messageArea, .toolbar, #backstageButton,
#backstageArea {display: none ! important;}
#displayArea {margin: 1em 1em 0em 1em;}, .title {display:none}
/* Fixes a feature in Firefox 1.5.0.2 where print preview displays the
noscript content */
noscript {display:none;}
}
/*}}}*/


Any other suggestions? Thanks!

 By posting the following solution, hopefully I will trigger about 8

 In StyleSheetPrint there may already be a

 If not, make one.

 Then inside that group put:

 That should suppress the *title* only.

I would like to see a way to add a subtopic directly via the tagtree

Also, I think the paradigm with the menu on the left is not very

the tree menu on the right, collapsable, AND the usual sidebar on the

[tw] Re: Scientific Research

2009-09-21 Thread Mat

Just maybe a decent starting point for leads is already at;

http://www.tiddlywiki.com/#Examples

I also recall seeing other compilations a few years back. I think
tiddlywiki.com contained a list of what was then called flavors or
that might have been a list in Mr. Simon Bairds monkeypiratetiddlywiki
(mptw, itself a flavor, I guess) or maybe it was a showcase of TW's
hosted at his tiddlyspot server.

If I understand you right, you have not formulated your academic
'problem' yet. How about conducting a little poll here in the google
group for suggestions, just to give you ideas for a thesis. Since you
wish for it to be *about* TW, I'd assume you wouldn't mind for it to
be valuable for the development of TW itself.

If you're in the hood of the Osmosoft gang, maybe you could ask to
investigate how it has been integrated at BT?

If you, in deed, hope for it to have some effect on very TW design,
then doing something in collaboration with the actual central
development team (the decision makers) is probably a good idea.

Or maybe some of the generous plugin developers in here have some
questions that would help them in their generous efforts?

Personally I think your suggesed question Are TiddlyWiki adaptations
too complex for the average user. is interesting and would love to
throw TW at some interface ease-of-use design expert. Or how about a
quantative and comparative study, introducing new users to TW and
other 'competing' personal CMS alternatives and evaluating e.g ease-of-
use, desired features, intended applications etc etc?

Sorry, you got me ranting  ;-)

Thanks but I'm hoping for a more generic answer on how to filter
cousin tiddlers and ideally even by the n'th cousin. Surely this

around already, that is economical from a processing point of view.

Previously I cut-paste-trial-ed together a solution using arrays to
store intermediate filter results, but due to my poor programming

result was slow.

Re: Using dependencies in Quick-Add

2009-10-27 Thread Mat

On 23 Okt, 13:22, Simon Baird simon.ba...@gmail.com wrote:
  An alternative approach: All actions listed in Quick add could by
  default get a Next tag, unless manually tagged with WaitingFor, but
  then as an action is tagged with 'PrecedingAction', this Next tag is
  eliminated. This would *keep* the 'Next-status' of actions that don't
  get a following action. Tagging with 'PrecedingAction' would also omit
  the need for a Future tag alltogether. Whatever is not tagged Next
  or W/F is, per definition, Future!

 This could work. The above example might look like this. (I'm choosing
 D for 'Dependent')

 Make sandwich
 .get bread|N
 .spread butter|D
 .spread jam|D
 .cut in half|D


For dependence on multiple preceding actions, how about this;
Along the left gray edge of the 'quick add' box there are lables for
referencing a certian row in the 'quick-add field'.
E.g the left edge (outside the actual writing field) could be
permanently numbered from top down, looking like this;

1| Make sandwich
2| .get bread
3| .spread butter
4| .spread jam
5| .cut in half
6|
7|

to smoothly declare actions dependent on multiple previous actions,
you use the 'label', i.e

1| Make sandwich
2| .get bread|N
3| .spread butter|D
4| .spread jam
5| .cut in half|D3
6| .stick in toothpick
7| .put on plate|D|D2

(or, even more compact, maybe optionally to D|D2 it could read
DD2 )


The same nomenclature could probably by used for subprojects, as long
as they are declared simultaneously in the quick-add box, i.e
