Re: Importing tiddlers offline - how do I do it?

2012-09-19 Thread Daniel Baird
You download the tiddlyspot wiki, use tiddlywiki importing to copy all
your stuff from your local wiki into your ts wiki, then upload back to
tiddlyspot.

Be careful not to over-write the Tspotsetup plugin from your ts wiki.

These days browser security makes most of those steps quite difficult
:)  Good luck.

Re: mGSD not remembering my password

2012-09-05 Thread Daniel Baird
It's supposed to save your info in a cookie; if it's not, you might
have some browser security setting that prevents cookies from being
saved.

Is it a locally saved file that you're saving-to-web from?  What

It's a primary goal of mGSD to stick to the "catholic" GTD system as
much as possible.  mGSD's 'realms' were a non-standard-GTD feature
that needed a thorough justification before being added into mGSD.

So you're unlikely to get features that are outside the plain vanilla
GTD system.

Ticklers have dates, as you've noted, but they're supposed to be for
just "things" -- random notes that are not yet processed into projects
or actions or whatever.

Simon has talked about sequential actions before but he's pretty busy
lately and I think the depends-on thing is as close as it will get.

Maybe mGSD's strengths will be enough to make it worth it anyway.  Add
dropbox and you have a pretty sweet system.

Cheers

Daniel

That'd be my recommendation, unless your wiki name is common enough
that you think it might be snatched away by someone else in the
seconds between deleting and re-creating.

You can download the original site first, and save it for later
importing or whatever.

Re: Horizons of Focus visualize connections

2011-06-02 Thread Daniel Baird
I have an answer but I think it's not what you are expecting to hear.

The lowest tech way of doing your linking is to just write your list
of (for example) 20k goals with a hint after each one that refers you
to the 30k goal it supports.

Eg. at the 30k level:
* Improve Fitness

Then at the 20k level:
* Exercise Regularly (get fit)

..and obviously that would give you Projects like "Ask Joe if he wants
to go jogging with me every Friday", "Join a gym", "Arrange child care
for gym night", etc.

I humbly suggest that spending any more effort that that in drawing
connections between high level goals and lower level goals isn't worth
it.

The purpose of those higher level lists isn't to draw a pretty tree,
its to help you identify new projects. 20k goals you should be looking
at in your weekly review (or every second weekly review, or
whatever..).  Having a nicely laid out hierarchy might save time
tracing the origin of a goal, but when you look at your 30/40/50k
goals, you should be taking enough time to reflect on them that it
won't matter how fancy the links between them are.

In fact not having a proper hierarchy to worry about will make it
easier to add a 20k goal that serves three different 30k goals, or
whatever... less friction = more chance of capturing your goal ideas.

Don't forget to spend at least some of your time doing Actions :)

Cheers
;Daniel.

Sometimes that means you didn't allow the page to do what it need to

Are you saving to your hard drive, or to a remote site like tiddlyspot.com?

Re: Error message "The original file mgsd.html does not appear to be a valid TiddlyWiki"

2010-06-26 Thread Daniel Baird
Save-as doesn't work for TiddlyWikis.  If that's your only remaining
copy, get a fresh new mGSD, and open it and your old one in a text
editor.  You will be able to see your tiddler data; if you're a little
familiar with XML or HTML, you might be able to copy that block from
one TW to the other.

Good luck

Re: Basic Saving

2010-05-28 Thread Daniel Baird
you can't save to the hard drive from a "http://"; URL.  Use the
download link in your sidebar to get a copy onto your hard drive. Once
you've saved a local version, you can open that version in your
browser (it will have a URL starting with "file://").  Then you can do
saving from that one.

You can also save a copy by going to your ttiddlyspot download URL:
http://your-site.tiddlyspot.com/download

Re: Index card printing error

2009-12-18 Thread Daniel
Oh, *audible gasp* no use of IE here, :-) A friend and i tackled this
over the last few days and here is what we came up with.
These are added to the stylesheetprint tiddler. they strip down your
projects to the bare bones (for printing on index cards in
MGTDtiddlywiki) keep in mind you could strip this down even more.

input, select {border: 0 none;font-size: .8em;}
/* this line removes the borders from the dropdown menus and saves
some space */
div.floatleft > span.label + br {display:none;}
/*this line prevents the affected dropdown menus from displaying on
two lines by removing any carriage returns from the affected area. */
div.floatleft {display:none;}
/*removes the  "project area", "subproject" and "associated contact"
text all together.
.deleteTiddlerButton {display:none}
/* removes the deleteTidderButton from printing */
span.projLink > .tiddlyLink {display:none}
/* removes the "[P]" link next to a "next action" while printing.
div.smaller {display:none;}
/* removes the "realm" selector from printing */
div.projectcontrols > div> span> a[href^="javascript:;"]
{display:none;}
/* removes the "[A]" and "[P]" links from the project title bar. */
.cols3>.col:not(:first-child), .cols3>.col>div:first-child+div+div
{ display:none;}
/* if you add this line, when you print ONLY the next actions for your
project will be displayed. */

That's what we came up with :-) it'd be nice to make the sections
"next actions, "waiting actions"  and so on more customizable ie. you
can turn them off and on for a print job. Perhaps that could be
accomplished with a project view though. All in all it makes much
better use of the space available on a 3x5 card, we still have to
tweak the Project Title line a bit though :-)

Index card printing error

2009-12-10 Thread Daniel
There is a bug in the current index card printing theme.
When printing index cards for context and the dashboard it works
beautifully, the cards are simple and seamless. However the sheet gets
rather clunky if you try to print cards delimited by project. The drop
down menus are huge, and they drown out the whole page. We need to
simplify the way this is displayed, perhaps even block them from
printing. Anyone know how to do this?

Project Status

2009-07-10 Thread Daniel

In David Allens GTD He mentions that projects have 5 states they can
be in:
Define Purpose/Principals
Outcome Visioning
Brainstorm
Organize Thoughts
Identify Next Actions

This is a sliding state for each project. If you have defined the
purpose of the project the next step is to lay out the vision, then
brainstorm, and so on.  It would be cool if projects were able to be
tagged with these 5 states. Furthermore a project view that breaks
down projects into these various states would allow quick easy
assessment of where a project is currently and the areas that need to
be worked on for the completion of the project.

Re: Now that it's essential, it's verging on unusable. Suggestions?

2009-07-04 Thread Daniel Baird

IIRC v3, and late versions of v2 i think, had the super-speedy-indexed
tagging.  I'm kinda surprised that 3 was so much slower than 2.x...
usually that kind of slowdown means something is scanning every
tiddler (often it happens each time the view refreshes).  I guessing
you would have mentioned any additional plugins that might be doing a
full tiddler scan.

Did you try Prism?  How'd that go?

Obviously it's not wrong to do whatever helps your productivity.  I
think Realms work best when you use them to differentiate between
things you might do in a given Context.  That's roughly what they were
intended for.. eg:

in my @Phone context list I might have:
 - call my buddy Frank to arrange a pub crawl
 - call Head Office to ask about new security policy
 - call Mum to make sure she got the photos I sent

..if I get some phone time at work I'm not going to call Frank, or my
mum.  Those are personal things that my boss ain't paying me for.  But
if i get some phone time midday on Sunday, I'm not gonna go calling
Head Office (even if someone is answering the phone then..).

Differentiating between "call frank" + "call mum", which are personal
calls, and "call head office", which is a work thing, is what Realms
are good at.  Jon El-B, it sounds like your "meta-realms" are about
right :)

I don't think it helps much to put frank into a "par-tayy" realm, and
mom into a "family" realm, coz I will still want to see them both on
my @Phone context list whenever I get phone time outside of work.

If you're dividing up stuff by your roles as a kind of planning
strategy, that's what Areas are supposed to be for -- so you can check
you aren't letting the duties of a particular role slip.

It sounds like you have a lot of realms.. is it possible that you're
under-using Contexts?  I've only even imagined people would use maybe
three realms.

I heard today that some folk in the Lojban community were considering

check your compatibility with Tengwar fonts before you lose even more

It's probably an interrupted save.  Do a download (
yoursite.tiddlyspot.com/download ) and save that away somewhere.  Then
check your backups for the last good save (
yoursite.tiddlyspot.com/backup ).

If you're missing something really important, it might be in your
download, which you can trawl through with a text editor.  Post back
here (or email supp...@tiddlyspot.com ) if you need help.

Re: How do I upgrade from MonkeyGTD 1.0.6 to MonkeyGTD 3.0 alpha r9577?

2009-05-24 Thread Daniel Baird

I'd guess if you had to do it "manually", it'd be easiest to run two
systems in parallel for a while, adding new stuff into mGTD3 while
your mGTD1 list dwindles.

Probably:
1. re-enter all your someday/maybe projects into mGTD3 and delete from
the old system
2. re-enter any long-running projects into mGTD3
3. for a few weeks, run your systems in parallel: check two lists of
Next Actions per Context, check two sets of projects in your weekly
review, etc.  Add all new projects into mGTD3
4. eventually you'll have just a few things left in mGTD1 -- during a
weekly review, re-enter the remaining outstanding projects into mGTD3

If you do something like this, let us all know how it goes!

Cheers
;Daniel

Re: Custom tickler intervals (3 weeks, 5 months, 17 days...)

2009-04-06 Thread Daniel Burón

I'm interested. Maybe it would be a good idea to add it as posts
divided in parts. Attaching it as text file won't be so good because
it would be harder for people to check your code. The best way would
be doing both, several posts with the code and a final one with the
whole code as text file. Thanks

Re: Quick way to select Realm!?

2009-04-03 Thread Daniel Baird

I think if you open up the Realm tiddler, edit it, and change the
tiddler title from the old realm name to a new realm name, you will
get a question "Do you want to rename tag "myOldRealmName" in other
tiddlers?" or something like that.  If you say yes to that, I think it
will rename the Realm the way you'd expect.

Of course, that is just renaming the Realm.  If you want to select 90%
of the things in a realm, and change the realm of just those, this
won't help.

Re: Syntax mgtdList

2009-04-01 Thread Daniel Burón

You can find info in the code, just look in plugins for MgtdList,
there you'll find the declaration of the function and its parameters.
You can also play a little with different parameters and look the
results, there are not so many parameters and it relative easy.

It would be nice a way to create a sort of tree view of projects and
subprojects, using first Area and then project herarchy. I'd have a
look to the treeview plugin but if anyone has done something like that
before it would be nice to post it here. Thanks

Tweaking Ticklers

2009-03-22 Thread Daniel Burón

Hello, I would like to add some new functions to the tickler on
MonkeyGTD, but I don't know where is the code related to Ticklers or
documentation about the code...

The new functions I would like are:
-Adding a "not done" to the ticklers, so I can add a counter to the
tickler itself and check if I'm keeping my "promises". Ex: 1h exercise
each day, if I press the +d button adding +1 to both the done and day
counter of the tickler, if I press the "not done" button just adding a
+1 to the day counter. I could also just add the starting date of the
Tickler and a counter but the other way would be easier.
-Adding a Week and Month Review of the Ticklers (not the the next 7 or
30 days, but the current week or month) with the percent made (on
repeated ones) or the "made/not made" (on once ticklers)
-Adding time to ticklers, it can also be easily added on the title but
it would be better if it could be part of the date data.
-Joining Ticklers with Reminders, maybe adding a reminder to the
tickler depending on the the options of the tickler.

I would like to add a new Component (a copy of Tickler) rather than
changing Tickler Code but maybe that could be difficult.

Thanks

Nearly all existent browsers have a portable edition, firefox works

Re: Migrating from local file to tiddlyspot?

2009-02-22 Thread Daniel Baird

If you prefer, you can import the other direction -- grab the plugins
from the tiddlyspot site and import them into your mGTD.  You'll have
to carefully check the sidebar stuff to make sure the upload button in
your modified old wiki is the same as the one from the tiddlyspot
wiki.

If you keep backups you can't go wrong :)

Re: context comber

2009-02-14 Thread Daniel Baird

There's probably ways to do all that, but first, you should have a
careful look at MonkeyGTD or D-cubed -- they are way better at
sorting through lists and other GTD stuff than Nathan Bowers' ancient
thing.  Eg in MonkeyGTD, to make an action into a next action, you
click the Next Action checkbox.

Try them both out at tiddlyspot.com, or from dcubed.ca and
monkeygtd.tiddlyspot.com .

I guess I'd use MODI (slayeroffice.com) to find the class of those

{ } block, and set them to display: none.

Then edit that css tiddler to NOT do display:none.

Hopefully you can follow that story...

Hi David,

The tiddlyspot FAQ describes how to get an existing TiddlyWiki onto
tiddlyspot.com.

Re: confused by ticker and make action options

The example that David Allen uses is getting a schedule for concerts
he might want to attend, that are 8 months (or whatever) into the
future.  He doesn't know if he'll even be in town then, so he can't
make a project "book ticket for show" or anything like that.

So he puts the concert schedule into a tickler file (he's describing a
physical set of folders to use as a tickler file), and it disappears
off his planning radar for 6 months or whenever the tickler is due.
When it comes up again, it's just another thing in his inbox -- maybe
he's gonna be overseas when the show is on, so he can just chuck the
thing out, no actions necessary.

So that's the example; the tickler is just another kind of in-tray item.

In the real world of mGTD users though, I suspect people do use
ticklers for delaying actions as you suggest :)  You can probably tag
an action to make it a tickler too..

I do like the idea of a project and action having a couple of buttons:
[ hide this for 2 weeks ]
[ hide this for 6 weeks ]

..kinda turning them into ticklers.

Re: confused by ticker and make action options

2008-12-31 Thread Daniel Baird

It's canonical GTD to *NOT* use your GTD system for calendar
reminders.  GTD is intended for stuff that you must do at some point,
but you can choose when you actually do it.

Things like scheduled meetings and taking the bin out on Sunday night
are what David Allen calls "hard landscape", in that you don't get to
choose when you do it.  The GTD Way is to use a proper calendar system
with its own reminders, repeats, and integration into your PDA to
organise all that stuff.  Then in the non-scheduled times of your day,
you turn to your GTD tool to decide what to do now.

So, 'pure' GTD tools don't have much calendar/scheduling support.
Ticklers are just supposed to be a way to put off *planning* until
some point in the future.

As I understand it Simon's intention with MonkeyGTD is to first make
it a system that supports pure out-of-the-book GTD.  However it seems
like lots of people want to use mGTD as their calendaring system too.

Ages ago Simon said he was expecting someone else to write a good
calendaring system for TiddlyWiki that he would be able to just
include -- maybe that's still the plan, but I can imagine that
ticklers might keep getting more and more powerful until they do all
the basic calendaring stuff.  Then Simon will probably get requests to
split out calendaring from the GTD stuff and release "MonkeyReminders"
or something :)

Anyway, that's why ticklers can't currently do everything calendar
reminders do - they're just supposed to remind you to do some planning
about projects and actions.

You don't have to look very far to find circular action lists in real
life -- lots of tasks need regular doing, along the lines of sleep -
shower - work - eat - sleep.  Maybe the right thing to do is to un-DO
a done action if it gets triggered when it's already done.

It's probably a little more complicated in implication that it sounds,
but that's perfect for a plugin type enhancement.

Re: Bugs with Safari

Sounds as expected.  Simon has said that in this "alpha" stage he just
makes it work on Firefox.  If you want it to work nicely on Safari you
could send Simon a MacBook -- I'm sure he'd do some work in Safari in
return :)

On the other hand if it is saving that you are trying to get working,
there's a trick:

Re: Monkey GTD newbie question

2008-12-17 Thread Daniel Baird

This is gonna sound crazy, but if you delete your local copies once
you have uploaded to tiddlyspot, you guarantee that you can only work
on the fresh copy downloaded from your tiddlyspot site.

Or, you could keep your tw on a usb stick, and just use tiddlyspot as a backup.

Re: Can't start the program after an improper shutdown

2008-12-17 Thread Daniel Baird

Hi,

It sounds like you are actually using GTDFree (
http://gtd-free.sourceforge.net/ ) not MonkeyGTD.  MonkeyGTD is a HTML
file, and doesn't have jar or exe versions.

If you were using MonkeyGTD it would look like this:
http://monkeygtd.tiddlyspot.com/

Maybe you should give up on GTDFree and start really using MonkeyGTD :)

Re: Newbie questions

2008-11-22 Thread Daniel Baird

The full answer to your question is that there are two good ones:
MonkeyGTD, which is generally referred to as mGTD and D-cubed, which
is generally written as D3.

They're both targetted at "proper" GTD, and both have good support on
this list; basically they're both great, and you'll be happy with
either.  I like mGTD personally, but I know the developer so I'm not
all that impartial :)

MPTW is not a GTD tool, it's just a kind of tuneup of TiddlyWiki that
mixes in more awesomeness.  It's not for GTD.  The same guy does mGTD
though, so you get the benefits of MPTW if you choose mGTD.

But really the most important thing is that you follow the book.  Even
consider starting with a paper-based process and see how far you get
with that.  That will help you feel the GTD love.

Here's three tips for starting GTD:

1. Do your weekly review, of EVERYTHING.
2. Only have projects active if you might actually work on them in the
next week.
3. Don't spend time messing about with subprojects and other fancyness
to model the conceptual structure of your projects.  That doesn't
matter, you just need to know the outcome a given action is taking you
closer to.

Good luck!  Feel free to post general GTD questions here, as well as
TW-related stuff.

Re: Next Actions by priority

2008-11-05 Thread Daniel Baird

This is not answering your direct question, but let me be a little
presumptuous and suggest that you take 50% (or 75%) of your lowest
priority projects, and move them all to "Someday/Maybe".  You're not
gonna be working on them this week anyway, right?

You're doing a weekly review of everything, so when a project becomes
important, move it up.  If you're worried that some projects will
never get done, that's not a problem with your system, it's a problem
with your workload -- you have too much work!  Say no to some of your
projects.  Cutting your workload to a sane level feels bad that day,
but really really good the next day and forever after :)
