A tw macro , widget and filter library could be created, so that there a basic blocks that represent the standard tw widgets, macros, filters (this should also reduce traffic on tiddlywiki.com) And a library where commonly used things are already there and own stuff can be added That'd be very cool -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
