Hi David, Yes, a weakness of TW is that it doesn't scale well.
What is the advantage of linking to static files? I guess there's a little less overhead in terms of javascript, but now you have to use the search function to wade through the text. And you have to figure out a way to get new data back into the file. Why not just link to TW files? It seems to me that your master file could be constructed so that it has tiddlers containing all the key words from the the sub-TW. So you could search for a term in your master TW, and it would quickly show you the links to TW's with matching terms. So your work flow would be Search --> Click to indexing tiddler --> Click to sub-tiddler --> Search again You would have to maintain the index tiddlers from time to time. I imagine someone could come up with a macro or plugin to facilitate that, or you could just maintain it by hand since there are lots of words it wouldn't be worth searching by (e.g. "there", "are","lots","of","words") The list of words in.each indexing tiddler would not have to be visible -- you can hide them inside of comments leaving only the link to the corresponding TW file visible. Mark It just occurs to me, if it was possible to make a plugin or macro that could use the existing search term and combine On Sunday, May 3, 2015 at 6:57:03 PM UTC-7, David Gifford wrote: > > Hi all, > > One goal that is always eluded me is the idea of having one TiddlyWiki > file be a hub for all my notes, rather than spreading my notes out among > several TiddlyWiki files.
