I have a kind of a solution for journal tiddler. Journal because you can simply define default text for new journal. For common tiddlers, you'd have to mess with the default template.
first, I define a macro called autotext. For instance: \define autotext(clever) <$set name=hail value="Hi! I'n a new tiddler. !! $clever$ "> <$action-setfield $field=text $value=<<hail>>/> </$set> \end An then I add this as default text for new journal tiddler: << autotext "This is great!">> And when I create a new journal, it appears with the default text above. Just validate it. You see a "do it" button. Just click it. And presto! your text is now set as the hail variable was computed (along your need). The trick is to be in action mode to be able to change the fields of the tiddler. Which you are not when the initial text is inserted as this experiment do show you (although it could have been the case since in the creation of a new journal, you begin by clicking on a button).
