Hi Eric
Thanks for weighing in!
Your reply solves that problem and allows me to present another one in the
same vein :D
Please look at the code below. In this, the get-extract() should called if
the description field is absent. How could this be made to work?
---
\define get_description()
<$text text={{{
[<currentTiddler>get[description]else<get-extract<currentTiddler>>] }}} />
\end
\define get-extract(title)
<$wikify name="output" text={{$title$}} mode="block" output="text">
<$text text={{{ [<output>split[]first[500]join[]] }}}/>
</$wikify>
\end
----
Cheers,
Adithya
