Hi David

1. How do I create folders in other places? I use Microsoft SkyDrive and

To re-open a wiki you'd re-run the same command:

tiddlywiki path/to/wiki/folder --server

Yes, that's right, they are equivalent representations of the same thing.

WikiFolders do not contain their own copy of the TW core in the same way
that standalone HTML files do. A wiki folder just contains the tiddler
files.

Try "wiki folders" or "TiddlyWiki folders".

Yes, wiki folders can include other wiki folders. Look at the
tiddlywiki.info file:

Any further subfolders within the "tiddlers" subfolder are ignored by
TiddlyWiki; it just hoovers up all the tiddlers it can find within the
"tiddlers" folder. So, you can use subfolders for organising your tiddlers.
See the tw5.com wiki:

https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/tree/master/editions/tw5.com/tiddlers

The wiki folder inclusion mechanism is designed to do just that. You'd
create a standalone wiki folder for the asia images, and then include it
within any other wiki folders that you want to include those images.
