Hi Jed, Mhhh, I've actually been thinking of this quite a bit and been working on it already. My goal is to make it all work as sections, footnotes as well as these kinds of references. So if you could hold off and not jump at a quick implementation that would perhaps be good, since eventually

Tobias, If you aren't working on this now I may make this my project for the weekend. My quick thoughts on this are to make something that can pretty much act like \cite does in latex. You would have some macro or more likely widget that you put where you want to label something, if you

Thank you for the explanation, Tobias, I overlooked that part. So we need some alternative id to reference to. Not numbers but something else … in TextStretch I generate an id from the actual content – that should be appliccable here. If I had the time, I would make a TextStretch derivate,

Hi Thomas: > could you explain the meaning of the term “reference” to me? a = b + x (1) Now we replace x in *(1)* according to: x = c (2) and get... a = b + c (3) The reference would have been: *(1)* and with the actual formula reference (1) being dynamically generated via css, you

Well, then, ok! And yes, footnotes would be another use. Generally, any kind of sequential numbering within (and, presumably, within transcluded) tiddlers... And I promise I'll love it :) //steve. On Friday, October 28, 2016 at 2:15:27 PM UTC-4, Tobias Beer wrote: > > Hi Steve, > > I have an
