This is a simple one that I use sometimes. I put this in a tiddler with a
short name like "TE".
<$reveal state=<<qualify "TE">> type="nomatch" text="edit"><$transclude
mode="block"/> <$button class="mybuttons" set=<<qualify "TE">>
setTo="edit">Edit</$button>
</$reveal>
<$reveal state=<<qualify "TE">> type="match" text="edit"><$transclude
tiddler="$:/core/ui/EditTemplate" /> <$button class="mybuttons" set=<
<qualify "TE">> setTo="show">Show</$button></$reveal>
Then when I make an excision, I add the template:
{{My excision||TE}}
I'm sure someone could come up with a better one. Like where all the text
would be lightly highlighted until you clicked on it. That would be neat.
