I've used both TiddlyFox and TiddlyDesktop lately and I find there is only one feature that I really care about in TiddlyFox, and it isn't even a feature of TiddlyFox itself. One of the extensions I use in Firefox (Vimperator) allows you to send the input of a text area to an external editor (Vim). I find this really useful for a few reasons:
- Syntax highlighting, particularly when editing JavaScript or CSS, is nice. - Vim keybindings in general make me more efficient. This is often useful for taking meeting notes. True, a long set of meeting notes will often need to be broken up into multiple tiddlers - but it's sometimes easier to do that afterwards. If there was any way to send the contents of a tiddler to an external editor while working in TiddlyDesktop, I would never look back.
