Hello All.

First of all I would like to thank all those who have worked on TiddlyWiki 
~ suffice to say I love it lots and lots.

Recently I've started a number of TiddlyWiki files and I often want to 
include them into one another.

I know that I can 'import' and external TiddlyWiki from the Tools > Import 
menu in the side bar.

However  would like to be able to 'transclude' an external wiki into my 
current one.

My use case:

I am writing my thesis, and use TW to take notes.
I use zotero and BibTex for storing my references. Whic I then import (one 
at a time) using inmysocks Citations Plugin 
<http://inmysocks.tiddlyspot.com/#Citations%20Plugin>
However I keep all my citations in a single tiddlywiki file, and then 
simply import this file into each of my other TiddlyWiki notebooks.

This works fine, but I would really appreciate a way for the TW with the 
references / citations in to auto update into the currently open TW file 
(much like how transcluding a tiddler mean I only need a single copy of it 
and any updates I make are seen wherever it is transcluded.
This functionality exists in TW classic using the SharedTiddlerPlugin or 
ExternalTiddlersPlugin etc, but currently doesn't seem to be availabe in 
TW5 (or have I missed something ?)

Another option would be to add in an 'import' button to do this 
automatically with this specified file.

I found the loadTiddlersFromFile function, but I'm not sure how to call it 
directly from within the a tiddler. I could place a 'button' within the 
local references tiddler that could point to the external file.

If anyone can give me any pointers that would be great, I'm fairly new to 
working on TW.


to this end I attemtped to find the JS code in the empty tiddlywiki file, 
but I can't seem to find it, as it doesn't seem to be called 'load' or 
'import'
