Thanks, Mark and Soren. I see I didn't actually specify that my home-grown plugins live in a folder away from this wiki. Sorry. I want to rebuild using these files every time, to have the latest changes.
I think I abandoned savewikifolder mainly because it generates a new tiddlywiki.info file in addition to putting my plugins in a subdirectory, but that was before I concluded that I needed a shell function anyway. Without testing, I guess that savewikifolder and a shell script to move/delete some files would work, and might have advantages over my current method of running the wiki through render with a tiddler filter, a name filter, and a template. So far I have the impression that I'm doing something weird, so it's not a one-liner, but it's possible, because there is just so much flexibility in TiddlyWiki.
