The "[tag[...]]" syntax is called a "filter". It is used by the TWCore <<list>> macro, as well as in the handling for DefaultTiddlers (e.g, if you put [tag[startup]] into DefaultTiddlers, then any tiddlers tagged with 'startup' will be displayed whenever the document is first opened. The tag filter syntax is also supported by several plugins, including TiddlyTools' MatchTagsPlugin, which extends the syntax to permit use of Boolean expressions (and/or/not) to select tiddlers based on logical combinations of tag values. This allows you to write filters such as: [tag[someTag OR (someOtherTag AND NOT aThirdTag)]] enjoy, -e Eric Shulman TiddlyTools / ELS Design Studios ---- WAS THIS ANSWER HELPFUL?
