Hey, you could try it with a "substring" macro like this: /*\ title: $:/substring_from_to type: application/javascript module-type: macro A macro to get certain characters from a string. \*/ (function(){ /*jslint node: true, browser: true */ /*global $tw: false */ "use strict"; /*

Yes, number string is unique. I've been working with the regexp, but can't quite get it to work... This is what I've got: <$set name="digit-pattern" value="[0-9]{2} [0-9]{2}">||> this is the unique pattern that begins each tiddler <$list filter="[regexp:title]">

[tw] Re: Substring of tiddler name
