How did it go?
TiddlyHome http://tiddlyhome.bidix.info/ is comparable to the TiddlySpot-service, however it's entirely php based and doesn't need a database. (every password, email and username are contained within a few invisible textfiles ".htaccess, .htpasswd and .htgroup")... All you need to run it is php and a server.. Your TWs will still be one file pr. TW - so I'm not sure if it's the right approach for you... however it's very easy to make it work in a portable environment!! You might want to run TiddlyWeb or TiddlySpace instead (to get everything "split into atoms"). I managed to make it run solely on python with no severbackend. You'll need python to install it and have the basic tools for creating new instances/bags etc... Fnd has made some documentation here: http://tiddlyweb.peermore.com/wiki/#[[Installing%20on%20Windows]] I never made that work myself I'm afraid... It should be much easier to install ccTiddly- and to me it sounds like a perfect solution for your usercase.. I don't use Windows myself - however I will try to install ccTiddly with Xampp for Linux in a portable linux os (Puppy Linux) and I will report back if I make it work... Good luck :-) Cheers Måns Mårtensson -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
