Thanks, Mark. I expected it would not be easy, but thought I would put  
it out there. I'll keep my hopes up.

Not having used TreeView, yet, I can't say I would really need any of  
these. I just noticed, playing with it a little in Morris'  
experimental implementation, that after you've clicked on a number of  
items in the tree, the tiddlers remain open after the tree has been  
collapsed. But maybe that's precisely the way you want it to function:  
use the tree as a way to navigate to the tiddlers you want to work with.

I appreciate your work on this. I'm absolutely incapable of being of  
any help, but I'm following the development closely, and I can  
certainly imagine myself adopting it and finding very helpful.

Not sure where I got the comparison with Windows Explorer. Perhaps I  
imagined it.

Sincerely,
