Hi, On Book writing; I would suggest creating tiddlers and tagging them according to various criteria - some will form character definitions some just story-lettes. Tagging allows you to organise in anyway you want.
Now for the linear structure - base it on a heirachy You could then build a set of chapter and sub-chapter tags with a field in each to set the order of the chapters. You could then assign a story-lette or paragraph tiddler to a chapter with a field in each to set the order of the story-lettes within chapters. Maintain a tag to indicate "include in book" for any item you want included. Always set your order field to something in the hundereds eg; 0000100 then 0000200 so you will allways be able to insert between them eg; 0000150 - you could have multiple order fields and only string them together in the final sort. Your could then use a sophisticated For Each Tiddler to list links to tiddlers as the contents in book order, and a seperate one to Display the content in a single tiddler for Publishing. Tools to select a chapter, promote or demote within your heirachy or change its order would make it a dream to use. TonyM If you have not found an easy way to do it with TiddlyWiki, you have missed something. www.tiddlywiki.com On Fri, Mar 19, 2010 at 13:02, twgrp <[email protected]> wrote: > On Mar 19, 1:11 am, Vincent <[email protected]> wrote: > > http://twspot.tiddlyspot.com/ > > > > http://tiddlytagmindmap.tiddlyspot.com/ > > I appreciate all input, so thanks. > But Oy! ;-) > That seems as far from linear as you can get, lol!
