Thank you all for the thoughtful replies. It seems as though there is confusion about the best way forward.
1) TiddlyFox is going away sometime - so I don't want to get too enamored with it (Yes it is an installed add-on (Legacy) that does not work for me now) 2) @Mark S - The beauty of a solution that works every time is ideal, except that you then proceed to explain that the default save has a "pain in the ass" character to it involving don't forget to's or batch like this... 3) I have tried NoteSelf, and lost enough info due to my lack of understanding how simple it is - "just use it" becomes "just keep retyping the same tiddlers" 4) I am totally willing to jump away from a single file system and into Node.JS, but as a newbie it acts strange, pulling up things I didn't mean to be in this directory... and I just don't understand it yet (but I think I would like it) 5) TiddlyDesktop is my one and only savior - it is the ONLY way I currently know how to reliably update a tiddler, save to Dropbox, and find it later. I can live with that. the only problem is when I link to an external TW5.html file, it loads it in FireFox, and I have to remember NOT TO UPDATE IT THERE - use only for reference. If I want to start typing, I have to remember to launch it directly from TiddlyDesktop independently.
