Hi walt,

A french ebook company worked with Jeremy to develop plugins that allow you 
to dynamically render only the text that is "onscreen", and also allows you 
to highlight a section of text & leave annotations attached to that 
highlight.

See: https://groups.google.com/g/tiddlywiki/c/_VLufc4Svp8/m/jALzYZ09BAAJ

Have fun.
Best,
Joshua F
