I'm still using apps based on dBase2, and even the occasional floppy! 8-) Obviously define "long term" long enough and even stone tablets dissolve, from my POV it's really a question of balancing current convenience/bells & whistles against the desire for longevity - my desire for the latter certainly wouldn't make a return to paper worth my while.
I'm personally hoping that today's TW will still be "mostly usable" down the road. I'm not expecting perfect fidelity, and worst case scenario the file format is in the end plain text, and I am willing to give pretty long odds that *that will* be accessible in the future, and future text parsing/scripting tools (eg Perl) will be able to get the data out into a useful format. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
