Hi Yakov

That's great. There's two other things we need to figure out:

1) How AndTidWiki detects a TiddlyWiki document to determine if it should
inject it's code (it's possible that it injects it's code into all HTML
files, not just specifically TiddlyWikis). Right now TW5 is unlikely to be
detected as a TiddlyWiki file.

2) How the fileUrl parameter has been mangled and encoded by the time that
the saveFile() function is called.

A quick hack to determine the answer to (2) would be if you could modify a
TW classic file to insert "alert(localPath)" just before the call to
saveFile() in the saveMain() function. Then can you attempt a save under
AndTidWiki, and note the path that is alerted. Ideally, could you include a
character like "%" in the filename.

I'm not sure how to deal with (1); if you can help with (2) I'll create an
exploratory TW5 saver for AndTidWiki and we can experiment further.

Many thanks,

Jeremy
