Exciting and useful development to insert the wikified result :-O

After years of legacy tools, open and proprietary, parsers and all manner 
of versions, conversions, transitions, transconfusions
 
The line is my tiddler and all tokens therein are the elements. Wiki 
CamelCase is the hyperlink. [1]

I have found TiddlyWiki fiddling proportional to the distance separating me 
from content :-)

In fact, early on, TiddlyWiki was actually TinkeringWiki with no end in joy 
of tweaking, optimizing, etc

We thrive on novelty, but Goldilocks said she won't remember transclusion 
or want to parse out list filter definitions

So I opted for AnalogWikiWeb that FutureSelf will still understand.


It's giving up a lot staying AntiMetaData, fields barren, tags unfed.

But experience tells a different story. Categorzation/classification is a 
hard problem. 

Search wins. It's smarter at harvesting than my fumbling with names, 
labels, classes, tags.

All we have is time so my convention stays all line based ISO 8601 
strftime("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S %a")

Pretty much a LifeLog with all its human inefficiency and redundancy, slow 
and bloated, organic analoginess

But still read like a book. Context is always in the past, lines back, down 
the "river".

When Windows break, apps forgotten, the web vectorized, SkyNet reigns, long 
live lines of plain text!

Since TiddlyWiki for me is a non-linear PersonalWebNotebook, this wouldn't 
fly in Federated collaborative space.

YMMV

Best,

[1] the gamble is on the old tools that last because they endure: regexp, 
vim, emacs, sed, awk, unix
however cool newness is, nothing seems to last without the BDFL, community 
and/or infrastructure to support it?
gotta find middle ground between AnalogDigital world
