Hi Stefan, After importing the macro from here <http://tid.li/tw5/hacks.html#Extract%20Macro> (by dragging over the link in the *Extract Macro Components* paragraph) you should be able to place the following in any tiddler to find all highlighted text:
<<extract "OriginalTiddler" start:",," end:",," limit:"no">> the parameters tell the extract macro to … - look for content in a tiddler titled *OriginalTiddler* - cut out snippets starting with ,, (the subscript marker) - cut out snippets up to the ending marked with ,, (the subscript marker again) - give you all snippets (instead of only the first) Hope, this helps.
