Dear Jeremy

I recall you mentioning 'Mise en scène' when I visited Osmosoft House.
Miss Marple was mentioned if i recall accurately.

Personally, when I first discovered TW, I was charmed by the fact that
the inventor of this intriguing thing had written the tiddlers and had
his name in the code. The modifer field of each tiddler displayed
JeremyRushton and looking at the Code you could see "TiddlyWiki
created by Jeremy Ruston, "

These two choices cast TW as "small" and "English".

To me any kind of mis en scene is difficult concept to get across over
the web, but i think the choice of language "tiddler" and the fact
that the inventor wrote the manual -- for me at least -- drew me into
the TW project.

Language is a funny thing, i could have misinterpreted your meaning of
mise en scène to construct my own.

Please don't take this the wrong way, but I think a certain Miss
Marpleness has been lost somewhere along the non-linear path to the
drawing room.

So, if modesty allows, I would vote for the signed subtitles, whoever
they written by.

Also, can you elaborate on your understanding of mise en scène?

best wishes

Alex
