I got a chuckle as I googled <https://www.google.se/search?q=paramifier&oq=paramifier&aqs=chrome.0.69i59j69i60.1825j0j7&sourceid=chrome&es_sm=93&ie=UTF-8#q=paramifiers>the term "paramifiers" - sounds like something established but to my surprise it's TW lingo. ...and, it seems a certain Mr. Beer was involved on the matter concerning TiddlySpace; Startup Parameters <http://tiddlywiki.org/Startup%20Parameters> . (BTW, some quick tests to apply it to TW5 failed, unsurprisingly) the full documentation of which appears missing. > This should be (y)our primary concern for now. > Yes. But does anyone other than @Jeremy have the knowledge? The little I do find is the tiddlre on PermaLinks <http://tiddlywiki.com/#PermaLinks>. It briefly mentions the filter-via-url possibility and under last paragraph ("Techical Details") basically details how to set a target tiddler in the river. > > 1. is encoded in the url hash > - unpacked by tiddlywiki > - rendered using an appropriate component that knows how to handle > it > > Is it really necessary that TW knows what to do with it? I mean, given the examples I provided that created instantaneous divs etc - could the URL perhaps "force" the display, by concatenating(?) the URL stuff and the TW stuff. Perhaps inject is a better term. As you note in the "instant code editor" example it contains js and I'm thinking it could perhaps create a div and insert it <http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14004117/create-div-and-append-div-dynamically> at some specified position in the document? > All this sounds reaaaally man-hour-intensive in terms of development. > So, the question would be: What's are the benefits of all this? > Actually, I think it is one of those concepts that would be so useful that I can't even say what it would open up for (including risks). But I'll mention some ideas off the top of my head (an in a very arbitrary order); *You could show an iframe where the src is this special URL so that what is displayed is a, by you, formatted list of the plugins in the target TW (for the 2-step import I discovered the other day). *...or, bigger, "community aggregator" that consists totally of iframes like a trello display, each frame displaying a list of tiddlers from all included TWs, but where you set tags to filter their lists by. *...or even much bigger a concept; what if the URL can really merge multiple wikis from different sources by scrubbing so only the body content from multiple wikis are displayed in main document. I understnad the URL is limited in length, preventing too many such added wikis, but it sounds a bit like federation. *More humbly; inject a custom stylesheet to get your personal settings ("Big font for my poor eyes, beautiful polka stripes and blinking fonts everywhere") *etc, ad infinitum... my imagination (and knowledge) is too limited. <:-) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
