Hey, I checked both, but it still doesn't solve my problem, because I don't have tiddlers named "appears charactername", they're named just "charactername". And since I'm distinguishing between appearances and mentions, I need to generate a tag consisting of "appears/mentioned" and the name of the current tiddler. Unfortunately my knowledge of JavaScript is too limited for me to figure it out on my own.
