TT,
I hope to encourage anyone to post a tip when they have one, it adds value
to the forums and allows alternative approaches to be discussed. We all
learn so many things and have "our own way" to do things and it is this
establish methods we need to share. I learned early in my career we all
discover useful tips and workflows and sharing these have great results.
I hope someone can test Mac & Unix shell files too for TiddlyDesktop and
share back!
True we should then try to document Tips we use and improve documentation,
possibly even extend the standard distribution according to the value
realised.
I agree it is possible to leverage Timimi to do this, and important to note
this here, however it does require a different design.
This tip/method simply allows intuitive links and html to local resources
to work out of the box. Making a local desktop tiddlywiki is quite bespoke
to what is installed, so in someways we do not need to try and universalise
it, if you can install TiddlyDesktop you can build your desktop
interactions, your desktop is always different to mine.
Not withstanding the above, given my experience in corporate desktop
standards, I see it would be possible to design a solution to be deployed
to Standard Desktop Environments to support and empower users.
Regards
Tony
