Slices *are* very useful. However, there are some limitations that you should be aware of: You need to know what the slice names are in order to access the values, and each slice has to have a unique name within the tiddler. In addition, slices cannot contain multiple lines of text, nor can they use the "|" symbol (assuming the slices are defined using TW table format). In contrast, HR-separated lists are simple sequences of *unnamed* items, and can contain multiple lines consisting of any sequence of characters except, of course, for a line containing just an HR (----), as this would signal the end of one item and the start of the next. -e --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
