As Jeremy said the easiest way to use UUIDs would be, to use it as a tiddler title. All TW core functions will work quite well.
The only problem will be, the users. a) If you need to link a tiddler in text, you'll have to create a [[prettyLink|0d9b98c0-5f73-45eb-ac4a-386d445905e3]] to make a tiddler accessible and also "human readable". b) <<list filter [tag[0d9b98c0-5f73-45eb-ac4a-386d445905e3]]>> will work perfectly well. But IMO "no" user will want to type it. It simply is error prone. c) Human users want to have "pretty links", which makes stuff complicated. If you don't want to use the tiddler.title as an UUID, you'll need to rewrite most of the core functions. But all this stuff has to be programmed. Since the underlaying system doesn't force you to do it, nobody will do it. It's as simple as that. UUIDs can't be optional. If they are optional, you'll need all core functions twice, or/and the internal handling is more complicated. eg: <<list filter [tag[myTitle]]>> <<list filter [tag[U-U-I-D]]>> Since the links that are created by the list macro, need a different internal handling, the core will be even more bloated. .... Point a) and b) could be solved by an advanced editor, that does the translation for the user. But it has to be programmed. ... Just wanted to throw some thoughts to this topic ;) have fun! mario -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
