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
