Since I have the filter experts in this thread: I've been struggling with a somewhat similar problem that I have tried solving using the enlist operator... unfortunately without success. I have to accomplish the following task:
1. While in TiddlerZ Read text from TiddlerA 2. Remove a prefix from text to derive name of TiddlerB 3. Look up a field value from TiddlerB 4. Plug field value into another filter My approach for solving this is essentially composed of 1. <$set name="fieldValue" filter="[[tiddlerA]removeprefix[prefix]get[fieldName]]"> 2. <$set name="filterInput" value="[listed<fieldValue>]"> 3. [subfilter[filterInput]...] These steps do what they are supposed to do, however, they fail when the field value in Tiddler is referencing a tiddler with a space, e.g. [[FirstName LastName]]. In this case, the value gets parsed as "[[fieldValue]]" which then messes up the subsequent filters. Any tips on the proper way of dealing with bracketed Tiddler names (if using camel case is not an option)?
