I still not getting this (but I have just been on a bus for 10 hours and am
a bit groggy) - do you mean it is in a  list field when you edit a tiddler,
or appears elsewhere?

I think that having 'typed' tiddlers would general be beneficial with
complex tiddlers applications (its something that I am trying to develop
myself)

I do know if I know any 'real' programmers - maybe they have flat fingers!
To me programming is a skill (like carpentry) - something can be develop in
oneself. The thing that is really interesting (to me at least) is what you
make using the skill - you seem to be very creative with yours.
It would be good if you could put something on tiddlyspot for us to have a
look and give some feed-back.
