A small number of filter operators don't really filter -- they ignore anything earlier in the filter chain and create their own stream of items. These operators are called constructors.
The prefix/suffix trick comes about because there isn't an equals operator, exactly. You could use field:title<variable> perhaps. That should work as long as the tiddler actually exists. I kind of like the prefix/suffix thing because it works even if the tiddler doesn't work (like if you were looking for a particular tag, which isn't also a tiddler). -- Mark On Friday, February 2, 2018 at 12:56:30 PM UTC-8, TonyM wrote: > > Mark, > > That special use of prefix suffix again, I really can't understand the > tiddlywiki.com entries on selector constructors. > > Thanks mark I will test it soon and include the missing < > > Regards > Tony > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
