Hello everybody,

it bugged me that TiddlyWiki did not work for me under Chrome, so
today I started digging around and here is what I came up with.

There are 2 problems:

* The "default" icedtea-plugin does not work with TiddlySaver.jar  -
it claims not being able to decode UTF-8
* By default, the TiddlySaver applet is not "shown" under chrome

Here is what I did to solve them:

* I installed the latest SUN/Oracle JDK.  Sadly these are not in the
ubuntu apt-repositories anymore but I did not find a usable java
plugin in the OpenJDK packages I have installed.  The manual
installation of the SUN/Oracle JDK is explained here:
http://sites.google.com/site/easylinuxtipsproject/java
* I hacked the TiddlyWiki file in vim so the applet is displayed under
Chrome

+var useJavaSaver = (config.browser.isSafari || config.browser.isOpera
|| config.browser.isChrome) &&
(document.location.toString().substr(0,4) != "http");

I did not do much testing yet, but so far everything I use seems to
work except LessBackupsPlugin.  Which is fair since it uses Firefox/IE
specific code to do it's job.

Cheers,
Juergen
