Hoping to catch the opportunity to ask the creator himself;

Mr. Pearce, do I understand this correct;
A tiddler is only encrypted when it is rendered. For a TW on a remote
server (such as tiddlyspot) this means that when I use my local copy,
a tiddler tagged with Encrypt(something) is *not* necessarily
encrypted when I send it *to* that remote server, only later when the
TW is reloaded from there is it encrypted. Correct?

Thank you!
