+ Internally, the plugin uses four separate drivers to implement
the functionality on different browsers:
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ <p><strong>activeX</strong> - Uses the
FileSystemObject built into Internet Explorer 5 and above</p>
+ <p><strong>mozilla</strong> - Uses the ZUL
libraries built into Firefox</p>
+ <p><strong>tiddlySaver</strong> - Uses a custom
Java applet that works on Safari, Chrome and Opera</p>
+ <p><strong>javaLiveConnect</strong> - Uses an
ancient (and slow) binding technology to call Java run time library routines
directly. Only works on Opera</p>
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ </p>

+ The plugin is designed to work with UTF-8 encoded text files.
However, support in Internet Explorer is broken, and can only reliably save
files that are encoded with the ANSI subset of UTF-8. In the case of HTML
files, this problem can often be avoided by using HTML entity encodings.
