I'm trying to apply the info from "Installing custom plugins on Node.js" at 
tiddlywiki.com, and I'm not "getting it."  I need some help with 
understanding the details.  I have a single npm-installed tiddlywiki server 
with 3 wikis.

I see 3 methods described: environment variables, plugins folder in the 
wiki folder, node_modules/tiddlywiki/plugins.  I'm not interested in the 
3rd of those due to the npm warning in the doc.  For the sake of 
discussion, let's assume I have two custom plugins I want to install, 
cleverly named plugin1 and plugin2, and I've downloaded and unpacked them 
both into folders in my home directory, with the plugin.info files 
~/testing/plugin1/plugin.info and ~/testing/plugin2/plugin.info.

*environment variables*:

   - Using this method would make a plugin available to all my wikis, right?
   - Would I set "TIDDLYWIKI_PLUGIN_PATH=~/testing" or would I set 
   "TIDDLYWIKI_PLUGIN_PATH=~/testing/plugin1:~/testing/plugin2"?
   - I would still need to edit the tiddlywiki.info file in the root folder 
   of each of my 3 wikis, in order to actually load these plugins, right?


*plugins folder in the wiki folder*:

   - Using this method would make a plugin only available to that one wiki, 
   not impacting my other wikis served by the same node.js, right?
   - If one of my wiki folders is named /data/wiki1, then would I need to 
   move ~/testing/plugin1 to /data/wiki/plugins/plugin1?
   - I don't see any mention of editing tiddlywiki.info for this method. 
   Was that an omission from the doc, or does TW automatically load all 
   plugins from this plugins folder?

Anything I missed?
