Hi Raghu
Here’s a macro that gets close to what you want:
\define show-extract(title)
<$wikify name="output" text={{$title$}} mode="block" output="text">
<$text text={{{ [<output>split[]first[500]join[]] }}}/>
</$wikify>
\end
<<show-extract "HelloThere">>
Transclusions will be respected (ie you’ll see the content of the transcluded
tiddler, and not the {{}} markup). The problem is that all the text will appear
to be on one line.
That can be fixed with some CSS:
<div style="white-space:pre;">
<<show-extract "HelloThere">>
</div>
Best wishes
Jeremy
