I fear this may be a case of tldr; combined with me lacking understanding
of a pretty basic tiddlywiki concept. I really do appreciate your patience.
I'm trying to replace the output to this call of a plantuml widget
<$plantuml
source="
Class A
Class B
"
/>
by first creating three tiddlers, A:
Class A
B:
Class B
and C:
{{A}}{{B}}
and I then call the widget by using:
<$plantuml
source=
{{C}}
/>
but I get the string "{{A}}{{B}}" rather than what I hoped for "Class A
Class B".
As I said, I'm sensing this is a rookie error but if someone can point me
in the right direction I would greatly appreciate it.
Once again, thanks for your time and help.
Cheers - Chris
