Ok, you can try this, but be sure to backup your TW! Drag and drop the attached file into your TW. Save and reload.
I've included at test tiddler, but the syntax for usage is: <$set name="size" value="4"> <<list-links "[prefix<curstart>]">> </$set> You have to set a variable "size" for this to work because TW filter operators will not accept variable parameters. If you are editing, the preview will show you (in this example) everything that starts with "Draf" because the title of an edited tiddler is "Draft of ..." I suppose I could make a work-around for that, but it would only work in English. Have fun. Be careful.
