Folks,
It would be good to answer this, especially if it was a "clean" and
uncomplicated solution, however I have decided to flag template tiddlers
using a method that does not get cloned ie no field, text or tag. In this
case I am creating a subtiddler currenttiddler/template to indicate
template tiddlers.
Regards
Tony
