In order to explain concepts clearly they must be assisted with diagrams. My diagrams can either contain a tree, a graph, a table or a Matrix or a combination of all of these. (For instance, I might want to make notes on Depth First Traversal. For that I need a graph diagram.) All these functionality is supported by the Tikz package of LATEX.
I have figured out a workaround. I would make these diagrams using Tikz in some Tex editor and then convert them into images. Host the image and the original .tex file some where on the web and then refer the image in my tiddler. I know its a lot of work but there seems to be no simpler way out without compromising on the functionality. Moreover, when I want to make changes to the diagram I would have to repeat the whole process again. If only there was some way I could quickly write a plugin for the TikZ package. To answer to your question, yes I want to define the tree textually as I want to have fine grained control over the tree representation. For my need, strictly the table of content approach or the tree generated from the defined tiddler relations will NOT work.
