Hi Richard

Specifically, what I'm trying to do is have the user enter text in a box -
> "sometiddlertitle" and then create two tiddlers: "sometiddlertitle" and
> "sometiddlertitleQ"

Why do you have to use a different template editor for each tiddler? Could
they share the same editor?

You need a macro to join together the two parts of the $param for the
action-sendmessage.

But I think there's a deeper problem: when you create a new tiddler against
a template you don't have direct control over the title chosen. If the
template is called "HelloThere" then the first tiddler created from it will
be "HelloThere 1", then "HelloThere 2" etc. That makes it hard to reliably
tie the two tiddlers together.

Best wishes
