Whenever you need to concatenate, you almost need a helper macro. Something
like this might work:
\define myfilter() [tag[action]hive[$(title)$]]
<$vars title={{!!title}}>
<$macrocall $name=mymacro filter=<<myfilter>> columns="title date text"
columns2="UID Date Notes"/>
</$vars>
Of course, I'm just guessing at your argument names and I had no way of
testing this. You might be able to do this without using <$macrocall>, but
macrocall is usually a little more predictable. You could also set up your
environmental variables and then pick them up inside your JS macro using
getVar (or is it getVariable? -- look around). Then you could concatenate
within your JS (JS being a lot more predictable than TW syntax).
Good luck
