Hi Chris, Indeed tiddle was inspired by Quicksilver and Launchy, the equivalent app launcher for PC. Two great apps!
Tiddle is a Java app. It parses the tiddlers in the TiddlyWiki, and indexes them using a the apache lucene java library. So all fields and attributes should be available for searching. I think you should also be able to type in the attribute name, followed by colon, followed by search string, and it should work. e.g. "tags:mytag". The app is written in Java, but as far as I know, macs come with Java already installed. Otherwise there are some downloads here: http://developer.apple.com/java/download/. So Tiddle should work on mac. Unfortunately I don't have a mac so I can't really try it out. One problem that Tiddle will have is when it comes to register the windows hot keys, for showing Tiddle when it has been hidden. If your prepared to give installation a go, I could build you a release that will not fall over if it is not on Windows.
