My editor prototype project is now stable enough and functional enough that I feel like I can share it with the group and solicit comments and discussion. It is available for inspection and "play" at http://tw5editor.tiddlyspot.com/
Those of you who saw the earlier, external version of the project will recognize this immediately. The primary difference is that the workings are now all internal now as part of a TW 5.1.8-prelease wiki. Thus, there is no longer the requirement to copy and paste from the one editor window to the other. The internal editor and preview work more or less the same as they do in the standard version of TiddlyWiki. The two primary features are a toolbar and an editor help system. The toolbar with a number of buttons which trigger javascript editor functions that modify the tiddler being edited. This works approximately the same as Stefan and Ton's bookmarklets or Danielo's keyboard snippets. As with my earlier version, the preview section may be either the preview or a group of editor help tiddlers. I can't recommend this for your regular use and you should treat this with even more caution than you would any prerelease version of TiddlyWiki. It is safe to assume there are undetected bugs and errors. I would like feedback on areas you think need work or improvement. Yes, Tobias, there are still quite a lot of buttons. I haven't worked out a system yet that reduces those to a more manageable number and doesn't claim excessive space. As Tobias suggested, I dropped most of the help screen tabs replacing them with a drop down select list. And yes, separate buttons to toggle between Help and Preview may well be cleaner than the remaining tabs. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
