I'm please to announce the release of 5.0.11-beta of TiddlyWiki at:

http://tiddlywiki.com

As ever, when upgrading please exercise caution with your irreplaceable
data and take care to work on a backup until you're confident that your
configuration works with the new version.

The release note gives the full details, and in the process shows off
permalinks, one of the key features of this release:

http://tiddlywiki.com#ReleaseHistory

The permalink mechanism in TW5 incorporates the functionality of permalink
and permaview at the same time. The permalink consists of the title of the
tiddler to be navigated to, a colon, and a filter expression specifying the
tiddlers that should be displayed in the story sequence.

For example, to open the tree tiddlers HelloThere, GettingStarted and
Features and navigate to GettingStarted:

http://tiddlywiki.com/#GettingStarted:HelloThere%20GettingStarted%20Features

Or to open all tiddlers with a particular tag:

http://tiddlywiki.com/#:[tag[introduction]]

By default, the address bar is continuously updated as you navigate between
tiddlers but this can be switched off. Another option determines whether
tiddler navigation should affect the browser back and forward buttons. It's
off by default, but with it switched on you can use the browser back button
to rewind back through the tiddlers you've opened.

The permalink implementation also provides a way to use tiddler links in
MarkDown tiddlers.

This release also sees:

* the introduction of the `[ext[mylink]]` syntax for explicitly specifying
an external link
* the departure of the hamburger, replaced with a much clearer double
chevron icon
* an improved implementation of vertical tabs that is much more reusable
* new filter operators: "before", "after" and "get"

Another big change will only affect users under Node.js. Now, by default,
the commands that output files do so into an 'output' subfolder of the wiki
(the folder is created if required). You can change this behaviour with the
new --output command.

For example, this command writes index.html to mywiki/output/index.html:

tiddlywiki mywiki --rendertiddler $:/core/save/all index.html text/plain

While this example writes index.html to the current directory:

tiddlywiki mywiki --output . --rendertiddler $:/core/save/all index.html
text/plain

Finally, developers will appreciate the new startup task mechanism, which
gives much better control over the startup processing, allowing plugin
authors to easily extend and modify it.

I'd like to thank the many contributors to this release here on the group
and on GitHub.

Best wishes

Jeremy.
