Arc,

I have now upgraded to 2.7.0 and running in portable FF14.0.1 - with 
TiddlyFox and will return to this set of problems later as I have lost so 
much time so far. I must say that all the in and outs with tiddlwiki 
save/import/export and backups (Less backups plugin not working) is eroding 
my confidence in tiddlyWiki, though so far it has not forced me to consider 
abandoning it, I have so much invested in it.

Hopefully those with the power to can try and stabalise these problems.

Thanks All.
