This is absolutely how TW works for me. When there's a kind of cross-linking or transclusion style I need done, TW can do it. And when I want to know how TW does something, I can just read the available documentation or lurk around the community. That's how I learned it's possible to style the heck out of it, which really was the thing that made me stick with the system. I'm a sucker for *customizable *minimalist design, and powerful engines. Other text editors don't have that combination, or maybe there's one out there that could, but maybe it's not less than 2mb in size. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWikiDev" group.
