You are attempting to apply
   http://www.TiddlyTools.com/#ToggleRightSidebar
but have not installed it properly...

1) The content in the "Configuration" section of ToggleRightSidebar is
informational only and simply documents the names and default values
for the available settings.  To apply *non-default* settings for
ToggleRightSidebar, you need to create a separate tiddler (e.g,
"ConfigTweaks") containing the desired assignment statement:
   config.options.chkShowRightSidebar=false;
and then tag *that* tiddler with 'systemConfig' so that when you
reload your document, the ConfigTweaks are invoked, and the desired
value is set for the current session

2) ToggleRightSidebar is a *transclusion*.  This means that it's
functionality is only invoked when the content is *rendered* somewhere
in your document by "transcluding" (i.e., embedding) it via the
<<tiddler>> macro.  For example, you could add the following to your
[[MainMenu]]:
   <<tiddler ToggleRightSidebar>>

Because MainMenu content is always rendered during startup, embedding
ToggleRightSidebar ensures that it is invoked as soon as the document
is loaded, so that the initial display state of the sidebar (based on
the setting in your ConfigTweaks) is actually applied.  It also
provides a convenient, fixed location for the ">" (or "<") command,
allowing you to toggle the sidebar whenever you want.

Note: In order to keep transclusion tiddlers as small as possible, the
documentation for most transclusions is minimal.  Although this can be
sufficient for some, it is obviously not adequate for
ToggleRightSidebar, and I really need to re-write the documentation to
provide proper installation/usage instructions.
