..in a hurry to send this post before Eric has rewritten ShowLocalDirectory.. ;-) http://scphillips.com/tiddly.html#FileLinkDropHandler .. basically already does what you would want (though don't know if it still works with the current TW version): This plugin is a handler for Bradley Meck's FileDropPlugin. It's purpose is to enable users to keep notes about files in their TiddlyWiki. When installed, if you drop a file onto the TiddlyWiki you will be prompted for a name of a tiddler. If the tiddler does not already exist then it will be created with a tag of "file" and the location of the file (along with the time and user) will be stored in the tiddler's extended fields. A link to the file (and the time and user) is displayed when you view the tiddler. You can then use the tiddler in the normal way to make notes about the file and click on the link to open the file. If you use the name of a tiddler that already exists, then that tiddler's extended fields will be overwritten with the new information and it will be tagged as "file" to make the extended field view/edit work. In this way, you can update the location of a file if it moves on your filesytem while still keeping your notes, or add a file link to an existing tiddler.
