Hi Jeremy

Please excuse my labouring the point, but I am trying to find the best way 
to address the issue raised by Stephen Kimmel in the previous post without 
interfering with the essential features of TW.

Automatic linking of CamelCase links to non-existent tiddlers is a core 
> part of the wiki way. The idea is to be able to write links to tiddlers

Links to 'missing tiddlers' are easily bracketed with double boxes for this 
purpose, which has the added advantage that non CamelCase titles may be 
used in this way. Linking to 'missing tiddlers' is certainly a core part of 
the wiki way, but automatic linking of CamelCase forms to 'missing 
tiddlers' appears to have a downside that outweighs the advantages.

Having to place brackets around CamelCase titles in the few instances when 
these tiddlers are non-existent at the time appears to be a small price to 
pay for avoiding the problems of automatic linking of all CamelCase forms.

The only downside of suppressing automatic linking of CamelCase to 'missing 
tiddlers' appears to be that a few CamelCase strings will not function as 
links until the browser is refreshed? This might present a theoretical 
travesty but in practice I don't think many users would find this much of a 
problem.

regards
