It seems that a Multi-Language-TiddlyWiki is not quite something with an "out of the box" solution.
Ideally, I'd want it to work something like that... # define a default language and a content structure or hierarchy # add or define all globally available languages # ability to globally switch the wiki language # have translations be tiddlers in their own right... not sections ** create translations starting from default language tiddler and have them linked ** have fields indicating the tiddler's language and the translation status (e.g.: 'todo', 'draft', 'final') # ability to navigate from a default language tiddler to a translated tiddler ** a dropdown in the toolbar in view mode to "view translation" ** a dropdown in the toolbar in edit mode to "open or create translation" ** a button to jump from a translation to the default language version # a table view listing all default language tiddlers ** with indicators as for existing translations and translation status in all defined languages No idea, which of these features would be needed for basic functionality, which would have a simple implementation and which would require a bulkload of work. Thinking about this, it seems to me that besides TAGS and WIKILINKS, there is a certain need to have something like SEMANTIC RELATIONS in a tiddlywiki... meaning: * to persistently link two tiddlers, e.g. "tiddler xyz in default language" <> "tiddler xyz in french", regardless of any subsequent name-changes * to qualify the semantic relation, e.g. "has french version" <> "is french version of" ...which would drastically facilitate the development of plugins building on such semantically qualified relations. By the way... right now, I don't see cycleTags to be vital in developping a "simple localization" ...I'd personally prefer a dropdown ...with cute flags.
