Thanks Danielo, that is a big help. That is the level of hand-holding I needed.
I feel bad now, though, because I DID get my standalones loaded on my own site with the Bidix store.php, and since Saturday have been adding notes to them. But I forgot to come here and let people know I figured it out. So this thread is 'completed' for me. It does concern me, though, the level of insecurity of the store.php approach. So I will still eventually experiment more with Noteself. But to be honest I do need the ability to link between files and permalink to share with others. Github's approach doesn't sound like it would allow me to edit with the edittoolbar available, which I use extensively. So I probably am better off not investigating that idea any further. Thanks again for your helpful explanations!
