My reason not to use triple double quotes is that they introduce another level of complexity. This may lead to behavior that is difficult to comprehend. I like clear and obvious tools. In the best case an error leads to erroneous output just at the location of the error and not lines or paragraphs later. Please also consider, some tiddler's content may be considerably long. And sometimes my contents are copied and pasted from different sources and hand-crafted afterwards. So, whenever something is wrong in a tiddler, I have to *debug* it. And this is much faster if I only have to search for errors just at the location of questionable rendering. In addition, from the point of view of my individual use cases the benefit of triple double quotes is limited. As far as I understood the original motivation was based on the different behavior of TWC and TW5 regarding line breaks. Same for me. But even if we put triple double quotes at the very beginning and at the end of a tiddler, we do not get TWC-like linebreaks. Instead we get unexpected rendering in between. Hence I will use <br>. But of course I fully understand that other users might have other use cases and they might regard triple double quotes as helpful. So it's all ok for me. The above was only to describe my motivation. br Michael -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWikiDev" group.
