This would be outside the scope of Relink, but there are ways to
programmatically fill out a generated tiddler.
\define body()
Dear $(name)$,
I write to inform you that your pet, $(pet)$ has filed for emancipation.
\end
\define createButton()
<$button tooltip="Create new letter" aria-label="new version" class=<<tv-
config-toolbar-class>>>
<$action-sendmessage $message="tm-new-tiddler" title=<<title>> text=<<body>>
/>
<$list filter="[<tv-config-toolbar-icons>prefix[yes]]">
{{$:/core/images/new-button}}
</$list>
<$list filter="[<tv-config-toolbar-text>prefix[yes]]">
<span class="tc-btn-text"><$text text="new letter" /></span>
</$list>
</$button>
\end
<$set name="title" value="New Letter">
<$set name="name" value="Wilson">
<$set name="pet" value="snuffles">
<<createButton>>
</$set></$set></$set>
This will create a new tiddler. with a variable title, name, and pet.
