Ciao Mark S. I'm not answering your Mac question as I'm only PC and Android.
What I did want to generally comment is that "residual" ability to access the OS via "in TW scripts" is still very worthy. I think its particularly helpful in stand-alone one-file TW---AND TiddlyDesktop, which functions as a "whole". Part of the issue is, of course, the browser lockdowns on security issues have made it very difficult to do that. But, FWIW, I was much taken by what Riz managed to do in the (previous) release on Timimi for Firefox. Essentially a small OS hooker that passed muster and let you launch scripts. Frankly I do not have the competence to understand the machinations of the issue. That said, I do have enough understanding to know that TW is much more than a static web page and OS interaction can more than ice the cake of it.
