FET is also pretty messy from my point of view: it forces the writer to mix JavaScript in with their text, which is ugly and complex, and difficult in many situations because of security concerns. The TW5 features of tiddler filters and transclusion of templates are designed to fulfil the same purpose as FET, but with more flexibility, and without requiring writers to learn JavaScript. > Finally, Still on the topic (as far as I understand it) when viewing a tag > using TagglyTagging, it includes buttons to (1) sort by title, modified, > and created, (2) group the results by tag (hierarchically), by sitemap, or > alphabetical, (3) optionally view each Tiddler along with some or all of > it's content, with excerpts, slices, sliders, etc. (4) view the results in > your choice of number of columns.
