If you're using chrome, it's probably easier to paste the code as a 'snippet' into the sources panel of the dev tools and run it from there.

The Developer Console in a Chrome is usually accessed by pressing F12 while on the tab/page you want to inspect. "Console" will be one of the tabs (w/ debug output from TW). Paste PMario's code into the input bos at the bottom with the "> " symbol. Other browsers may have other methods to access their dev console. BTW, that a neat trick. :) Best, Joshua Fontany On Tuesday, September 19, 2017 at 1:06:53 PM UTC-7, JWHoneycutt wrote: > > by copy paste into my developer console - you mean just add a new tiddler > called "PMario step 1" with the body containing your code (stripped of > comments) and save it - and it is going to reveal me a list of tiddlers to > check??? > > Developer console must be something else... > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.

@PMario
I will just remove the "//" and everything that follows to the end of the
line (remove all comments and keep the programming)
I did create 2 short scripts, that you can copy paste into your developer

by copy paste into my developer console - you mean just add a new tiddler
called "PMario step 1" with the body containing your code (stripped of
comments) and save it - and it is going to reveal me a list of tiddlers to
check???
Developer console must be something else...

@PMario How exciting... Thank you for the code - I take your warning to heart and created a backup TW5.html, renamed it, and am working on it in a separate "sandbox". For some reason, all your comments start with "//" - but for my implementation of TW5, this just italicizes the text that follows, and therefore doesn't run.

[tw] Re: Retitle a tiddler - conceptually easy - HA!
Mario, You seem to be a wizard. Can you confirm your approach for me so I may learn from your example? Loading tiddlywiki in your browser it is stored in active memory. I the developer console you are running a script to search then modify the tiddlywiki in memory. Then the user will save it (from memory) to disk and WALA it is now modified? Is this another strong point for tiddlywikis single file quine nature or are there other cases that work the same?

[tw] Re: Retitle a tiddler - conceptually easy - HA!
Just a high level idea, I agree with Mark List all tiddlers with dates, which a check box to flag them suffix or Prefix or Other Write a process to move the suffix or prefix into a field titledate Manually fix the balance which is tagged other You could stop there and sort the list based on the value of the field titledate. However you could list all tiddlers with a title-date next to there tiddler title and scan the list to ensure all are of the correct form If should be fairly easy to then process all tagged suffix to remove the suffix and add the titledate back as the prefix title -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.

In database theory, one of the central tenets is to use each field to do only one thing. TW already breaks this by using the Title field for a title and an ID. Now you want to also use it for a date field. Why not extract the dates and put them in their own date field (e.g. actiondate). Then you can sort on that field. This has the additional benefit of not breaking any existing links.
