Thanks for the very fast reply! I had no idea that classic.tw.com is actually built in tw5.
You say "the only reason to use it" - but would it not be a reason (ie. would it not work to) have it create a Classic layout wise that has some of the TW5 advantages? If it is in nodejs tiddlers-as-files form then could one perhaps do a mesh of a TWC and a TW5? This would allow for a smooth(?) transition over to TW5 if you have many special code tiddlers in Classic (I have looots of forEachTiddler's for example) and you could now modify them one at a time. Again, thank you Jeremy. And, while at it: thank you for the latest upgrade!!! <:-) On Friday, October 24, 2014 6:20:49 PM UTC+2, Jeremy Ruston wrote: > > Hi Mat > > The tw2 edition of tw5 (and the tiddlywiki/classictools plugin that it > includes) is used by Eric to build TiddlyWiki Classic's index.html from its > constituent tiddlers.
