Hi Poul At last I managed to make tws (with noide.js) run/startup as a service on my linux boxes. It's great to be able to create and save TWs without any hazzle whatsoever :-) Thanks a lot for making this available - for all platforms.. I don't think there are any security problems to worry

That's a lot of stuff to set up. At this point, TW is no longer the light-weight, run-anywhere personal wiki solution. There are already information and wiki systems that can run on a USB stick with no install and no significant memory restriction. For that matter it would be easier just to

This is exactly why I wrote TWS (besides getting a feel for node.js). It actually already has a mention on TW.com, but in the context of hosted options, which is not really it's raison d'etre. The way it works does of course break with the accepted paradigm of how you work with documents on
