I interpret your desire to make on-the-fly instructions for users. Contents of MessWithYourFolder:
blah-blah <br/> Navigate to <$text text={{{ [[C:\]addsuffix{!!title}] }}} /> <br/> blah2-blah2 <br/> The <br/> 's are necessary so they don't run together. The text widget causes the triple brackets to return as text, not a link. The triple brackets append the title to the directory name. The !!title contains the name of the title of the tiddler passed at invocation. Invoke like: {{Bob's Folder||MessWithYourFolder}} Note that the template goes AFTER the name of the target tiddler, and that they are separated by a double pipe || .
