Interesting question TonyM, and maybe a great opportunity to fill a missing gap in TW.
In my opinion there is a missing top layer in TW. It never received the final buttons translating the dark wikitext incantations into a new-user friendly UI. Consider MS Word - do I type at the command line an elaborate, syntactically arcane text instruction to tell it to create a bullet point list? No, I click a button. The instructions are then inserted into the document correctly. I don't even need to see them or learn them or remember to use the correct bracket combo. I just get a bullet point list! TW never took it all the way with its GUI imo. The Stamp tool does have some functionality in this direction. An extensive list of common TW code snippets can be added to it, but I think a whole new button set is needed which will do the work for beginners. The roll your own option would still be available for the adept but an edition with off the shelf code buttons, maybe grouped by common programming functions might help many new TW users. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
