Hold up. If you find yourself making this exact pattern a lot:
<<details sum:"[[ tiddler ]]" src="{{ tiddler }}" >>
Then you could wrap it in another macro to keep it neat.
\define details_for_tiddler(tiddler) <$macrocall $name="details" sum="[[
$tiddler$ ]]" src="{{ $tiddler$ }}" />
Then you could configure Relink to relink the "tiddler" parameter of
"details_for_tiddler" quite simply, since it would always be a title
parameter. You'd go to the Relink configuration page, then to "Macros", and
you'd "Add a new macro parameter" where "macro"="details_for_tiddler" and
"parameter"="tiddler". After you add, the type would default to "title",
which is what you want.
