How? Well, would having it as a tiddler benefit the context or not? The changing variable is the *context*, and the tiddlers be-or-not is a consequence. The need for "Milk" to be a tiddler or not can flip back and forth. In reality the context isn't even defined by the wiki, but by the reader and the moment. Even a common link could often as well be text if it is not clicked on. But IMO this is not so much a philosophical question as it is a pragmatic one and this is why I ended with: *It should be effortless to merge and split tiddlers and rearrange "subtiddlers" showing within them. - *Imagine, for example, a UI where you (ideally in view mode) mark out a text segment and drag it to the river to create a tiddler with that text segment, at the same time removing it from the original tiddler. Or the reverse, drag'n dropping a tiddler onto a another one to have it merged into that spot. There ain't no "solid defined context" only momentary needs that we vainly try to predict. <:-) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
