Hm, interesting - I misunderstood you at first: I think it should be possible to use one dictionary (or rather, its entries) as input for the graph, instead of tiddlers. That's a very good idea. ...but you seem to want something else: Using one single *text* as input and somehow count occurrences of predefined strings, right? The graph macro is rather kind of the step after; you give it the value you want to visualize. How to *get* the number to begin with is a totally different matter. That said, someone made a word count widget (Thomas?). I would think it should be tweakable to count specific strings rather than (I assume) space characters. You could then use a regular list widget and with your funny names as the filter argument and apply the count widget/macro on one name at a time to get the desired list. Or even make Word Clouds of them? > (What the heck!? ;-) Word clouds is exactly the thing I had in mind when I tried to be mysteriously cryptic in what I would to with the randomization feature in Thomas' rpn macro. I have actually already experimented with this a bit, for the Graphs macro, and I'm pretty close to a cool solution but need a better randomizer than what I currently have <https://www.sitepoint.com/the-cicada-principle-and-why-it-matters-to-web-designers/> . <:-) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
