Hi, Saq thank you very much for Streams. Streams is really useful, and I am one who desires "... to be able to create a node structure easily for things I do frequently". You mentioned in your post to Mike that for this purpose:
"... the code and approach I posted for Arun above is probably the way to go rather than cloning tiddlers." If possible, could you please point me to where is the post which contains that mentioned approach? I have sought repeatedly, but I don't seem to be able to find it.
