Wow, Morris! That's great! I love the Blackicity theme -- from Saq  
Imtiaz -- but it's just that, a theme. Pretty plain, as far as  
functionality goes. But that was OK. Relatively easy to tweak. Just  
add in the things I want.

But there's a pretty low limit to tweaking if it has to be done by me.  
TWT and TWT-Treeview have a lot of what I want. Now I've got that and  
a theme I like. I think I'm set for a while.

For any lurking -- or non-lurking -- newcomers here, this is typical  
of the kindness and generosity of TiddlyWiki Google Group. Ask and you  
shall receive.

Of course that means we have to give back to the best of our ability.  
Hopefully mine will improve.

English is not my native language (far from it), but I understand the
statement on the NET website as focussed on 'commercialization', not
distributing. But I'm fully agree with your arguments that this point
needs a clear explanation from degree NET Ltd.

The used terminology ('The [...] concept is intellectual property of')
doesn't sound like an invitation to use the concept.

In my humble opinion ist doesn't help - nor you for distributing the

I'm fully agree and I'm sure, that there are a lot of regions on earth
where such concepts never will get a protection by law.

Supposedly there is a way to customize the allTags macro so that it

I must be doing it wrong. Any help? How would I show all tags but

Tag1
Tag2
Tag3

Ah, I get it. You have to create tiddlers like Tag1, Tag2, etc first,
then tag those tiddlers excludeLists, then use the macro <> so that the tags represented by those tiddler titles
won't appear. Thanks to all those who thought about helping before I
figured it out myself!

[tw] Unusual implementation situation

2009-06-06 Thread Alan Cohen
I recently started a long-term project at a client that doesn't allow ANY
media to be brought in or any saving/downloading from the internet.  They do
however have an internal software library which end users can download from
and use.  There is an older version of GdTiddlyWiki in there which I have
started to use, but it could be better.  It is legal for me to bring in
paper with words printed on it; I'm looking for some guidance as to how to
bring this older version up to date by comparing current versions of CSS and
tiddlers to the versions currently inside security, but I don't know where
to start. I would think it would be better to upgrade the base before adding
new stuff to it.  Since I only have local access on this machine and expect
it to be single user only, I might not need anything that enhances
cross-machine access.  I would also think this might be of interest to other
people who would like to understand the internals better.

Any suggestions would be appreciated (like which tiddlers to start with,
order of which ones to update, etc.).

[tw] found the cause of totally mangled TiddlyWikis

2009-06-06 Thread pat toche

Thanks to an older post by FND* I was able to identify why I was
unable to view TiddlyWikis from the office.

I quote FND:

This might be of interest:
 http://tiddlywiki.org/wiki/Corruption
 http://tiddlywiki.org/wiki/Greasemonkey

-- F.

and tiddlywiki.org:

The most likely cause for this is the respective network (e.g. in a
corporate environment) filtering the incoming traffic due to the use
of JavaScript.

Useful info that is well worth recording here once again. If you're
having problems, follow the links above: they offer a fix that may
work for you.

Thanks FND.

Dirk,

Please don't apologize, you write far better in English than I do in
any other language.

I agree with you that the situation is unclear, and the response I got
did not help.

I also regret that I cannot include NET in the final package. If they
clarify the IP situation, or adopt a real license, I will of course
reconsider then.

As I said to them, I do not think there is any chance of widespread
adoption of a timekeeping system if explicit permission is required
for distribution OR commercial use. The response I received did not
point out any mis-interpretation.

Best,

Tim West

2009-06-06 Thread pat toche

Can't help with the server business unfortunately, as I'm a total
newbie.

I noticed you're using TiddlersBarPlugin. The default behavior is that
when you click on the little tab it will close other tiddlers. I
prefer that it will do nothing instead. Visitors to the TW who are
unfamiliar with the whole concept find this default behavior
unsettling -- "what have I done, where have my tiddlers gone?" It's
purely a matter of taste, of course. As I just learned the following
trick I thought I'd share it, just in case. It's pretty trivial as far
as tricks go.

In the TiddlersBarPlugin tiddler (or in the StyleSheetTiddlersBar if
you can work out how to do that -- I couldn't) , change the following:



config.options.txtSelectedTiddlerTabButton =
config.options.txtSelectedTiddlerTabButton ?
config.options.txtSelectedTiddlerTabButton : "do nothing";

Well Tim,

I am not prepared to leave it there; in limbo.  Forward me a copy of
your correspondence (off list) with them and I will take up the
cause.  It is their responsibility to clarify the situation once and
for all in the affirmative for us.

My approach will be that I am, and will be, using and distributing the
NET time concept on a not-for-profit basis.  I will give them due
credit for trademarks and copyright.(even though they have failed to
renew their copyright since 2006)

If I don't hear otherwise then I am alternatively taking up their
offer as stated on their website to use NET for free and non-
commercial purposes, which includes, but not limited to, anything that
falls under the most broad not-for-profit definition.

Further, I cannot, and will not, under any circumstances accept
responsible for what other people, who have been duly informed of the
legal rights involved might choose to to do with such information.  If
they should see any abuse of their rights then they have recourse
under whatever laws may apply to whatever jurisdiction.

While I believe that they may have legally obtained a copyright for
their web site and a trademark for their names, neither of these
extends to the fact that a 24 hour clock normally traverses 360
degrees and that can be neither be copyrighted nor trademarked.

Nor can anyone be prevented from drawing a connection between the 360
degrees of the circle a 24 hour inscribes and discussing it and
broadcasting such ideas with complete freedom from restriction.

My final arbitrator will be their own offer to the public to use New
Earth Time for free.  Or I will see them in court whichever comes
first, since I have been there for similar reasons more often than
they have.

Send me your correspondence, please

Morris
