For "TWX", i.e a *totally hypothetical* future version of TW:
- Replace $set with an empowered $vars for direct parameter value
setting.
- ...and merge $wikify into it. Wikification can be toggled via a
parameter in the widget.
- Change name of "currentTiddler" variable to be only "current". One
reason is because it is not always tiddlers we're talking about. Possibly
currentTitle, which as least is closer to what the outputs {{{ from this
filter }}} are. (Also, minor, but the "is operator" uses is[current] )
- Only "=" to assign values, not ":". Examples:
<$macrocall $name=italicise text=mytext />
<<italicise text=mytext >>
\define foo(bar=frotz)
...because html tags assign values using = , so it would be consistent.
(And currently, it doesn't make sense that it's different symbols when
defining a macro parameter default value and when calling that same macro
with a parameter value.)
- Allow "immediate arguments" for some widgets. For example the
$tiddlerwidget could be called like so
<$tiddler=foo> or <$tiddler foo>
...i.e the string following a separator is assumed to be a value for the
"main parameter" of the widget.
- Implement a variable call default filter parameter. Saving a list as a
variable would then, by default and without having to define a macro, allow
you to do e.g <<mylist|[first[]]>> and, something like
$(mylist|[first[]])$. This way we can work with full lists in a new way
(like arrays) instead of having to work inside a listwidget with one item
at a time.
