Hi Eric,

Thanks for all your patience on this one, but I still can't get it
working.
I have:
- Copied and pasted your code into a real tiddler, called
DefaultTiddlersTweak.
- Given this new tiddler a tag of systemConfig.
- Editted the tiddler called DefaultTiddlers, found in the 'All' tab,
and deleted it (I guess this is the one you wanted me to delete).
- Saved my TW, then closed it and re-opened it.
However no default tiddler is displayed.

It must be something I am (or am not) doing, but I don't know what
that is.
Is there a particular plugin that I should have, that maybe I am
missing?
BTW I am running TW v2.4.1

Regards
Barry
