Mark S., BTC, TonyM, Stephan H. Thank you! All very helpful answers.
They made clear to me sometimes I need to *fill in more context* so the person can answer better. TBH I didn't want to add the work process steps as I thought it would lumber you with detail you don't need. The PURPOSE of this is part of an attempt/experiment to be able to prepare and *pre-process texts of all kinds within TW itself*. The "Json" of the example is not yet really a Json Tiddler, rather its the visual render in plain text of the processing of a large text document pasted into a tiddler that runs a series of regular expressions that generates a Json structure of the text. The render that looks like Jason is copied (the surface render, not a clone of the underlying tiddler content) and pasted into a new tiddler. That tiddler can then be exported as JSON and imported into any TW. *The stumbling block* was only getting the title field enumerated because you have to have that explicit for TW imports. Regular expressions in JavaScript are quite limited. You can forget them being able to do any math. FWIW--all your questions got me wondering why something so seemingly simple (effectively just adding a number to a line) was tricky. I don't really grasp the nature of what TW can do well. I'd wrongly assumed it would be easy. After a few hours messing about I've found a solution within TW that won't require any extra steps outside TW. Tests show *I should be able to use CSS COUNTERS to generate the numbers*. Stephan's Bookmarklet I'll comment on separately. Thanks again!
