Joe, Here is my complete log solution. Attached, download and drag to your wiki,.
The viewTemplate tiddler determines when to display it, currently on non
system tiddlers, and the $:/PSaT/macros/ShowLogMacro tiddler details the
macros that come with it for use in different ways.
Eg list items logged here on this tiddler, or all tiddlers, recent only
etc... or log line or text area.
.
It uses some tricks to combine the date time stamp, and current tiddler
into a line in a data tiddler, the log is wikified so can include links
etc... The list log functions reverse it to be most recent first.
Regards
Tony
