Hi Richard
Thank you very much for taking your time to show how you do it :-)
Very helpfull!
Now I will need to do some experiments.
Is it also possible to create a "master" JSON tiddler/file which will be
imported as a single tiddler where all defined tiddlers will exist/behave
like shadow tiddlers?
I guess what I'm asking is how to turn the resulting JSON file into a
plugin...
When I look at the $:/core tiddler it seems that all there is needed is one
extra top layer:
"{
"tiddlers": {
"TiddlerTitle": {
"title": "TiddlerTitle",
"type": "text/vnd.tiddlywiki",
"text": "Tiddler text with \n linebreaks"
},
"NewTiddlerTitle": { ... etc...
If my assumption is correct it should be fairly easy to create a spredsheet
like your's and make the resulting JSON file create shadow tiddlers.
If this is possible I will maintain/update these shadow tiddlers with
Andreas' Tinka plugin - and be able to import all these tiddlers into other
TWs as if they were part of a plugin..
Am I on the right track?
Cheers Måns Mårtensson
