For some reason it wants to stand not alongside TiddlyWiki but on top of it. I don't want a theme, even if it can be changed. I don't wan't to bloat my setup with a fullscreen-editor - I want backlinks. Don't get me wrong, I'm not telling you what TiddlyBlink should be, my frustration lies with me not putting enough weight on the word "adaptation" in the TiddlyBlink by-line. "TiddlyBlink is an adaptation of TiddlyWiki with the goal of helping you see connections between your ideas, and move quickly from one idea to another." Instead I was just happy reading the following part. > Confusion? > Why is a fullscreen-editor plugin or for that matter any non-essential plugins even included? With configuration at that which could potentially overwrite an already existing and configured setup.I find it to opinionated. Why can't this be a simple plugin? There already exists an infrastructure for plugins which the contributors of TiddlyWiki has made available - and it's not exactly new. Why is this not a plugin? > Questions? > Is this open source? If so, would you mind putting it on guthub? And in any case would you mind this being forked? If I may be so bold to wish or suggest... 1) Turn this into a plugin 2) Put it on github or something if it's open source - any place one can post bugs/pull requests. 3) Split this in two - backlinks and this column thing you're experimenting with. KISS. One plugin for backlinks. One plugin for multicolumn storylines. Users could then pick and chose one or all according to their needs. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
