Jeremy,
This sounds wonderful, and to achieve it you have introduced additional
functionality. It looks like much of this below is possible already, I am
just voicing my desires.
Your output continues to astound me.
- I hope these can be used independently such as the zip method
discussed here.
- Other outputs such as Generating the files for a Library into a zip as
well.
- EPUB and other zipped exports as a smarter alternative to publishing
I would hope a little guidance to allow the following would exist
- Generate the zip and save it in the wiki for subsequent drag and drop
- Generate a zip containing binary files
- This could be away to distribute low size software to install say
timimi local host in a wiki.
- Clone or modify the output template and make minor changes
- I am keen to export static where all the links refer to the actual
wiki file
- This would allow search SEO to find the HTML tiddlers but user
interaction would load the full interactive wiki
- I think this should be a static template made available already
Could we build a little helper plugin to assist in these various uses of
such a process? This would release the functionality to more users, sooner
in their tiddlywiki learning.
