If all you want to do is have links be updated when you change titles
I wrote a plugin for that. My very first one.

It's called UpdateReferencesPlugin. http://mattreimer.com/tiddly.html

I change tiddler titles all the time and I was tired of having to
constantly open the wiki in a text editor each time I decided to make
a change.

Let me know if it works for you. If not maybe I can make it better.

Cheers,

Matt

p.s. I think this post is related to another one here:
http://groups.google.com/group/tiddlywiki/browse_thread/thread/092a3e8745839550
It's redundant but I'm posting to both because I hate having to chase
links all over the place to get an answer :)
