It would be useful if TW could work as a custom markup constructor+interpretator.
I.e that it featured "*potential* wikitext markdown" that people can CSS-style freely. For example, we currently have the list elements * and : that give predefined <ul><li> and <dl><dd> with specific styling. It would be neat if e.g § or other characters would trigger custom styling IF the user choses to define such styles. If no style is defined then, I guess, the characters and subsequent content displays as usual. Notably, HTML has this built in i.e it allows custom tags like <mytag>Lorem ipsum</mytag>, but the requred angle brackets and possibly closing tags make this too verbose. I want a smooth wikitext markdown command. I identify two "base cases"; one with a opening and a closing mark (compare to a div). And the other as list element marker with only an explicit opening mark and an implied closing mark consisting of newline or similar. One idea would be to use the aforementioned § character. IF a row is prefixed with § and has a subsequent empty row (or end of tiddler) then it is interpreted as a list element. If the row instead is encapsulated with a § and a suffixing § then it is interpreted as a div. For example the first case could be interpreted as <li class="custom-li"> and the second case as <div class="custom-div">....</div>. We'd get infinite options if one could use §1, §2, ... (Possibly the character should trigger more than mere CSS. I would guess pipe characters, when creating wikitext tables, do this, right? In that case, § could trigger some user defined *macro*, perhaps titled § ...or §1, §2... to operate on the text snippet in question.)
