Hi Laurent

Great to hear you're enjoying TiddlyWiki. Thanks also for sharing your
workflow, it's always interesting hearing how people are using TiddlyWiki.

> is there a 'simple' way, running in a browser, to select a part of a
tiddler (my daily dump) and create another tiddler containing just the
selection ?

Yes. If you select and then drag a block of text into the TW window then a
new untitled tiddler will be imported containing that text. You can do this
from within the TW window itself, or from another window.

If you select and drag text of a tiddler that is displayed in "view mode"
then you'll create a tiddler containing the plain text of the tiddler.

If you select and drag text within a text editor of a tiddler that is
displayed in "edit mode" then you'll create a tiddler containing the raw
wikitext of the tiddler.

Each time you drop a block of text the Import tiddler will open. You can
immediately click the "import" button to import that tiddler, or you can
drag further blocks of text; the tiddlers to be imported will build up and
then you can import them all in one go.

> Alternatively, is there a way to easily split a tiddler in other tiddlers
?

Not yet!

Best wishes

Jeremy.
