- If you download a plugin or JSON in Chrome (listed at bottom) or
FireFox (behind download button) you can simply drag from the browser
downloads on top of a wiki (no need for opening your file manger).
- You can load a set of tiddlers into a bookmarklet, on any site click
to install (download) that content to the current tiddler. A Quick and easy
method to build bookmarklets to drop on your favourites/bookmarks could be
another interwiki transfer method.
I did not understand this solution! Would you please explain this!
Sure.
As a tiddlywiki user I deal with html files (wikis) and plugins and JSON
files all the time. Thus any work flow improvements are welcome.
If you want to get something, the typical approaches are;
- Drag from one wiki to another
- Download a file then open it in the file system and drag and drop it
- After downloading import the desired file to your current tiddlywiki
However the modern browsers allow you to download a file (no where
particular like the downloads folder), the recently downloaded file is
listed in down loads, and you can open it from there OR drag a file from
there and drop it on a wiki in the browser tab.
Lets say I come across a new plugin or a json tiddler, I just want to test.
1. Go to tiddlywiki.com and download empty.html
2. Go to the download manager and open it (empty.htm) opens in a tab)
3. Go to the link and download the resource (file plugin etc) you want
4. Now drag this recently downloaded resource (file) onto the tab with
empty html
5. With Timimi installed I can save and reload and test the plugin
6. If I am happy with that I close the tab and forget about it.
7. Also this takes place in a single browser and tab, I have no need to
visit the file system
Of course
1. If drag and drop is a available I use it.
2. If I want to retain the result I may rename and move it!
3. If something is in your download manger it can be dropped on multiple
wikis without leaving the browser.
Futures
1. Drag /download " objects from one wiki to another" such as todos and
streams and more
1. Test data and more
