Hi Tony 
A question.
After my success with the vim on it'salltext, I'd rather not use the 
codemirror plugin.
I'd like to use the vim.
but what I realized is that I am using my TiddlyDesktop for my work, more 
than the web browser.
Can vim be used with TDesktop? or only with browser editing?

Cheers for your patience:-)
