List fields may look like a series of links, but actually each element in
the list is the name of the tiddler (no |description). So your list inside
"myfield" might look like:
[[Learning]] [[HelloThere]]
and you can list them out like:
<$list filter=[enlist{!!myfield}] />
To label them with some alternate text, you could add a caption or
description field to the tiddlers. Then your list might look like:
<$list filter="[enlist{!!myfield}]" >
<$link><$view field="description"/></$link><br/>
</$list>
(In general use descriptions for longer descriptions of a tiddler, and
caption for short, button-friendly descriptions)
