Charlie, thank you so much! It works. Mario, this is what it happens, and it happens almost every time; I click on the tiddler that I want to open/edit, then I click on "edit this tiddler", then the whole content of the tiddler that I could have read until that very moment disappears! I am writing a thesis so it is all plain text. For this reason I am a bit scared of using tiddlywiki sometimes. The only positive aspect is that if I click on "show current tiddler revision" I can see the past versions so I can be saved if it happens, but still it doesn't always save the previous version so I deem i very dangerous. I will try your application, but I guess I couldn't use it if I storage my tiddly on Google drive, right?
