I have an idea for a way to modify the behavior of "save changes with backups" so that it will be more useful for some users, such as myself. I *believe*, from what I've read so far about customization of TW, that a plugin could be written which would achieve the desired effect. However, since it would (as mentioned) override a default behavior of TW, I am not sure I understand how one would go about writing such a thing. I'd like to hear from those more experienced with TW development?
A quick description of exactly what the plugin would alter about the process of "save changes with backups": * Under the current behavior, when changes are saved, the "backup file" which is created contains *all* the TiddlyWiki code, and the content of *every* tiddler in the file as it existed at the time of the last save -- even if the tiddler has not been changed since that time. * Under the new behavior, the "backup file" created would consist of *only* tiddler content, and only those tiddlers which have changed since the previous save. For those who (like myself) are using TW on thumb drives with fairly low storage capacity, this provides an easy way to retain old versions of changed tiddlers, without incurring a ~300KB penalty each time changes are saved. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWikiDev" group.
