Thats a geat idea. Inlinejavascript plugin by Eric can do this, I think. A script can create a new tiddler which when closed triggers another script to make a call back to the mother script(you would prolly also need a special template, using TaggedTemplateTweak plugin, again by Eric . The mother script again spawns a fresh tiddler. Alternatively why not just keep the same tiddler open and just send the current data away to the chat destination? That too should be possible by InlineJavascript plugin. You could create a macro button "send" and place it in the toolbar along with others. This macro call should send away the current text and delete it from the current contents. Further if might check if logging feature is enabled, then it might also "append" the text to log tiddler. Eric just yesterday explained the appending technique here in the group.
Would this be a peer to peer chat without a central server?
