Hi Soren.
I've run into a bit of trouble trying to create a custom cloze-macro using
TiddlyRemember. I have tiddlers with the fields cloze and context, and am
trying to create a global macro that will generate cloze cards based on
those fields. Here is the code:
\define cloze-text()
{{!!context}}
<br><br>
{{!!cloze}}
\end
\define cloze()
<$macrocall $name=remembercz id={{!!created}} text=<<cloze-text>> />
\end
I am finding that the macro is unable to get the current tiddler. If I
change the code for cloze-text to the following I get the output "block":
\define cloze-text()
<<currentTiddler>
\end
I have done something similar with question and answer cards and seem to
experience the same problem. Do you know what is going on here?
I hope I have explained myself clearly enough, but that's not always easy
so please let me know if I'm not making any sense!
