I looked at your link for the "focus tiddler" and can find focus mentioned. 
And you are all too deep in the core. However I feel compelled to share 
this in case it helps. 
{{$:/HistoryList!!current-tiddler}}  as long as you are using this 
$:/HistoryList the tiddler last navigated to or edited, becomes the value 
stored. 
I expect a simple button on the current tiddler to navigate to itself can 
also set the "focus" on any tiddler desired with a click. Could this 
focusing a tiddler be used to do what you are after.

Regards
Tones

Awesome, I love the work that you're doing and am so thankful. :) Having 
more stuff in core when it makes sense sounds great to me.

On Discord, saqimtiaz pointed me at tw5-keyboard-navigation-plugin 
 
which works really well for my navigation/editing by keyboard needs at the 
moment.

Hello @Russel

Besides this "Select Mode" I've done many experiments to find a solution 
for the "focus tiddler" and over at GitHub 
 we're currently 
discussing another approach
I've moved away from trying to implement a plugin on my own to trying to 
get something to the tiddlywiki core. But I think there's still a lot of 
work to do and help is needed

best wishes, BTC

Great work! Select mode works really well. It looks like a possible 
solution for the "focus tiddler", "navigate river with j/k" and "edit 
current selected tiddler" feature requests (related issues 1537 
, 980 
).

Is the code available for this anywhere? The demo 
for https://github.com/BurningTreeC/tiddlywiki-muuri doesn't seem to have 
this?

[tw5] Re: Tiddlywiki Keyboard Navigation

[h0p3]

Sorry I've taken so long to respond. This is outstanding! Love the demo.

I've tried importing all the right tiddlers necessary for select mode, but 
I have failed. I had something working, since I could push "Y" to get a new 
tiddler to come up, but it was definitely not functioning for me. Would you 
be so kind as to outline exactly what tiddlers I need to get for just the 
select mode? I will probably omit delete, since I'm not willing to make 
mistakes there (even with a nag screen). It is somewhat uncommon for me to 
clone a tiddler (but, I can guarantee I'm using Tiddlywiki all wrong in 
many respects). The ability to edit and close absolutely key to me though. 
I'm hoping that my sidebar will still follow me around during my 
navigation.

I found that I only need one Mode - I call it select mode.

I activate it using alt-S. When it activates it sets some keyboard 
shortcuts active (adds the tag $:/tags/KeyboardShortcut to the already 
created action-tiddlers ... leaving select-mode disables these shortcuts)
these keyboard shortcuts have single letters assigned: E for editing, C for 
closing/cancelling, D for deleting, Y for cloning tiddlers. These shortcuts 
automatically also leave select-mode.
Left/J/K navigates to the previous tiddler in the story river, 
Right/L/Backquote navigates to the next

I find this really handy and it works just with the keeboord plugin, no 
other dependencies needed
I think it'd be good to make the tiddler-edit-button leave edit-mode in 
case it's on, so that one can instantly start typing without having to 
press Escape first

At http://muritest-reloaded.tiddlspot.com I'm implementing keyboard 
navigation and keyboard modes, you can already test selecting tiddlers, 
editing and closing/cancelling by keyboard only
If a shortcut doesn't work for you, there's the "Keyboard Shortcuts" tab in 
the control panel where you can change shortcuts on the fly...

Try this:
alt-S : activates select-mode, where the left and right arrow keys navigate 
through the open tiddlers in the story river. Escape leaves select-mode. If 
select-mode is off, the arrow-keys and Escape have their previous functions

I have alt-shift-Equals and alt-shift-Dash for selecting tiddlers if 
select-mode is off ... I have a german keyboard so you might want to change 
these shortcuts

alt-E: edit the selected tiddler
alt-C: close the selected tiddler if it's not being edited, cancel editing 
if it is

These shortcuts also work in the other story views, try switching to 
classic with alt-shift-C... there's only the css missing at the moment
In muuri storyview I'm also tracking the clicks and drags on tiddlers, 
which sets the tiddlers active (highlighted by a darker shadow). This 
doesn't work in the other storyviews, but I'm sure it could be 
implemented...

There are more functions to come as I'm currently trying this out. I would 
welcome ideas to make this better if anyone is interested

[tw5] Re: Tiddlywiki Keyboard Navigation

[h0p3]

Hey Diego,

I'm kind of absent-minded sometimes, but I owe you a debt of gratitude. 
Thank you for helping me reason about this tool. You helped me think about 
how to do this from the command line last December:

https://philosopher.life/#2017.12.04%20--%20Diego%20Mesa%3A%20CLI:%5B%5B2017.12.04%20--%20Diego%20Mesa%3A%20CLI%5D%5D

The "restart" issue was a dealbreaker for me. When will the newest version 
come out (or is the current newest what you mean?)? Bouncing between CLI 
and Browser would need to be seamless. I ended up going back to the browser 
to do my work, but I'm beginning to see I may have no choice if I wish to 
make serious progress on this front.

I prefer my edits to go out nearly real-time, and I was hoping to serve the 
entire wiki in a single .html file. Unfortunately, minutely compilation is 
a burden (I basically lose a core to do it). I may eventually move away 
from serving the entire wiki as a single html file though. What does 
decent-to-high performance Tiddlywiki http service look like? I'm thinking 
about using Hugo if I go this direction.

[Diego Mesa]

Hey h0p3,

I actually do a lot of editing of tid files from the CLI. Whenever I drop a 
PDF file into a folder, a new tid file is created with the name of the PDF, 
some tags, etc. and is opened in my text editor. I can fill it out, save it 
and move on. Later on, I can restart my TW and it loads up all my new 
tiddlers.

In the newest version I think we wont have to restart it anymore.

@ Diego Mesa

Your dream (:P) searchbar is incredibly sexy. Now I want everything! Thank 
you for pointing out the keyboord plugin!

@ BurningTreeC

I'll be interested to see your example. I've run into the local/global 
hotkey problem in TW before, but you clearly understand more about the 
problem than I do. I'm hoping this problem is solvable, but I'm worried 
it's not. Global shortcuts which don't have access to the state of the 
cursor will indeed be limited; I probably have missed something crucial 
here. 

In a sense, this is about turning my browser into a portable self-contained 
terminal environment. If I can't, then I will have two modes of editing my 
wiki. One from CLI and another from within Tiddlywiki. The NPM tool might 
not be meant for this (imho). It feels like I'd need two sets of books, the 
.tid anthology/book and the .html book. I'd need a way to real-time update 
between the two (which is going to have its own set of weird problems). 

Does anyone else spend a lot of time editing their wiki in command line? 
Please, tell me your secrets!

Yes that's easily doable Tony,
the keeboord plugin basically works this way:

1) create a tiddler and put whatever actions in it, tag it with 
"$:/tags/KeyboardShortcut" and give it a "key" field with the value 
((my-action))
2) create the tiddler "$:/config/shortcuts/my-action" and put your keyboard 
shortcut in it
for 2) there's the easier way (to get the shortcut right) using a 
"$:/config/ShortcutInfo/my-action" tiddler. If you create that tiddler and 
save it, the action appears in the controlpanel under Keyvoard shortcuts 
and you can assign your shortcut there

HI on this,

Can keyborad shortcuts be assigned dynamically?

I can kind of imaging a list of tiddlers in their most recently 10 visited 
order on the side bar (not a tab). With keys line crtl-1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 
assigned to each
You could look at the list to see the number associated with a named 
tiddler and ctrl=n or if you know it was the last you edited ctrl-2 or 
third last etc...
Perhaps an alt-n for open in edit mode vs ctrl-n open in view mode.

Being on the side bar, if its always visible presumably the short cut key 
code is always rendered?

Regards
Tony

Hi @h0p3,

as Diego mentioned above, the KeeBoord plugin lets you define your own 
keyboard shortcuts for tiddlywiki actions
you find it at http://keeboord.tiddlyspot.com

I'm using it at http://muritest-reloaded.tiddlyspot.com for various actions 
if you want to take a look. The keyboard shortcuts are listed and editable 
in the ControlPanel's "Keyboard Shortcuts" Tab

TiddlyWiki has its keyboard-shortcuts system that works within the 
text-editor but not outside. There, within the text-editor, the currently 
focused tiddler is defined, it's the tiddler where the cursor is...
The keyboard shortcuts provided by the keeboord plugin are not called from 
within tiddlers in the story river. They are "global" shortcuts.
Identifying the "target tiddler" is a problem that still needs to be 
solved: How can I know from outside, which tiddler is actually meant?
If that can be solved, these three points can easily be realized with 
keeboord.

You're not the only one looking for this :)
Recently there have been more people asking for keyboard navigation... this 
thread  
could also be interesting for you

all the best,

[Diego Mesa]

My *DREAM* is to have this all encompassing search-everything bar:

https://codepen.io/adrianlambertz/pen/bNQjvp

which would popup with ctrl+space, and from there I search, open, filter, 
etc. and have keyboard access to all of my tiddlers. 

I share your dream! I hope you know about the fantastic:

http://keeboord.tiddlyspot.com/

plugin! Its the closest thing we have!
