ShadowPlan? .. Do you have a link?

As Jed pointed out. That's what editions are for.

TiddlyFox is a browser plugin. So it should be installed from the Mozilla 
addOn platform. Installing browser addOns from untrusted sources is a big 
security risk!

--- OT --- @Raymond  This response is OffTopic and I don't want to hijack 
the thread. So you should open a new thread if you want to respond to the 
following section.

IMO this "one" liner seems to be simple to implement but it doesn't contain 
enough information to create something that you want. eg: 

 - there is no "rename macro" in the core. Are you talking about "search 
and replace" functionality?

 - checklist macro ... is simple .. but .. "checklist macro that uses 
fields to designate the tag the list is based on" is too vague, to know 
what you want since "fields" and "tags" are 2 slightly different things in 
TW.

 - "a comprehensive set of functions .." can be anything and everything, 
depending on who you talk to. 

------------ end OT

have fun!
