If you want to construct your parameter the triple braces method is also
useful
<$macrocall $name="select_tiddlers" timeStamp={{{ filter }}}/>
<$macrocall $name="select_tiddlers" timeStamp={{{ [<variablename>] }}}/>
etc..
But macros themself can access data in the tiddler calling it, or global
macros
eg using $(variablename)$ in the macro.
