It's part of the plan for the plugin library: it's useful to have a centralised library but it's also handy in some circumstances to be able to set up additional or replacement libraries. For instance, in a school setting, the administrator might set up a TW plugin library that contains course materials. By dragging and dropping a single tiddler, individuals can then connect to that library and import its resources. > And, actually, I'm not really sure what defines a plugin A plugin is a bundle of tiddlers packed together into a single tiddler. Plugins can be manipulated (imported, enabled, copied etc) as a unit, but manifest themselves as their individual tiddlers appearing as shadow tiddlers. So plugins can be used to distribute anything: JavaScript code modules, content, images, fonts, stylesheets, lesson plans, code snippets etc. Best wishes Jeremy > > And, actually, I'm not really sure what defines a plugin so can I ask if > this (type of) library would be a good place to store any kinds of > "tweaks", "tiddlers needed for a theme", perhaps even "a gallery of > embedded images" etc? > > Thanx Jed.
