Eric,
Thanks for this insight. controlling the tags list is useful.
- It does however make me ask if there were a way to use sortby so that
the "named" tiddlers were at the beginning and the balance sorted following.
The sortby or another method allows a select set of tiddlers to have their
prominence enhanced through sorting, but its not very prominent if they are
at the end of the list.
- I have used your way to define a newline variable before, thanks. But
do you know anyway to get it into a global macro?
Regards
Tones
