James Anderson would be fine. I was thinking of creating a custom dropzone which could catch specific file extensions and create correctly formatted tiddlers for use with twexe. This would be a case of customizing the dropzone widget and navigator.js right?
Also while i have your attention, if I specify a tiddler's type field as twexe how could i go about creating a custom renderer for it? (I was thinking if it was displayed in the story river rendering the button associated with it would be more useful than just having the text) Thanks, James On Thursday, 27 March 2014 06:25:43 UTC+9, Jeremy Ruston wrote: > > Hi James > > Thank you for contributing this.
