Hello Mat, I really like your enthusiast but, are you conscious of how many things have you proposed? Some times looks like you are victim of a good marketing department of certain libraries.
the thing you are currently proposing sounds particularly impossible. From your description you want to paste some text into a tiddler and it should be auto-magically turned into what you expect. How do you think any program or person could do that? Let's make a mental experiment: If you give a person a text, that you have copied from somewhere and ask that person to format it properly, do you think that person will know how to do it? How would he/she know that you want tabs to be a table? what if for some content you prefer a list? Can you see what I mean? You should tell that person/program how to interpret each piece of text. Parsing and interpreting text is tied to a specific set of rules, and you have to tell to the program that applies that rules which rules it should use. This is how the parser mechanims of tiddlywiki works, and I think it works very well, but you have to specify the type of text (tidddlytext,json,image) in order to use the appropriate parser. In the other hand, instead of asking for a new cool thing, have you though if this is possible already in some way? Do you know my keyboard-snippets plugin? If you paste a tab separated text into a tiddler, selects that text and hit alt+t and you will have a nice table. The same for alt+k and code snippets. And since it is configurable, you can create any kind of rule to make any think you want. Give it a try, it is cool: http://braintest.tiddlyspot.com/#keyboard-snippets Please don't understand this the bad way, I really love your ideas, and you give a lot to the community. It's just this does not sounds doable. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
