Hi Iggi Eric Shulman has made this plugin: http://www.tiddlytools.com/#ShowLocalDirectory
It more or less does what you are asking for... Personally I use TWs online, therefore I can't use this plugin. Instead I create my own foldersystems in the TW and open onlinedocuments via iframes in tiddlers. Its easy to serve pdf's to the net with getDropbox... If you want to write notes included in a tiddler with an iframe - I will recomend TiddlerNotesPlugin http://tw.lewcid.org/#TiddlerNotesPlugin . However I think Dave Giffords NoteStorm - does a terrific job with treeviews and easy administration of sub- and MasterNotes... If you want to be able to search within text throughout the TW - then why not copy/paste the text into a tiddler? - You'll get all the power of TWs searchengines - I prefer this to Windows internal searchengine - because you can tag your documents(tiddlers) to make your own systems..
