[tw] Re: Plugins Group?

2017-08-25 Thread TonyM
All,

Why not promote Posts in the current groups whose titles are prefixes 
[announcement]  or [Plugin] ?

It is easy to search a group for such strings, and most of the plugins I 
know about were found in this group, so we need to maintain access to the 
history. If you find a plugin in the current groups you may be able to 
create a new post [plugin] plugin name function with a link to a previous 
post.

If we can build an index (using search) within the group to plugin 
references then we can at least find them, and when we decide on a 
repository, registry or library of plugins we can harvest the details from 
the group to start.

I am prepared to build and host such a registry but it must openly allow 
plugin authors and enthusiasts to add and edit it with us all chipping in. 
It also must take account of the existing helpful repositories or plugin 
sets documented by those who have already put some effort into this. This 
means it naturally needs to be a tiddlywiki itself in my view.

A TiddlyWiki in which any plugin could be dropped (whilst not actually 
being activated in that wiki), and permitting additional metadata to be 
provided would be a good start. We can then rely in part on each plugins 
internal documentation to start with.

But it is essential in my view, ultimately along with an overarching 
solutions based index like tobias's 
 https://tobibeer.github.io/tb5/#Solutions

Regards
Tony

2017-08-25 Thread TonyM
Ivan,

Try adding text="text in new tiddler" as text is simply another field. 
Other forms may produce more useful outcomes like text={{templatetiddler}}

I don't have the time to give you a more robust answer and others are more 
expert but that should help you move along.

Mat,


   - Thanks very much for your work, this will be a valuable tool. It is 
   very powerful and responsive, perhaps this could be an issue.
   - Constructive Feedback: It feels "sensitive", with immediate responses 
   we could loose information, I need to use it cautiously.
   - However I think it is very elegant and useful with the all drag-able a 
   very useful feature.
   

I empathise with your words *"a constant tornado of ideas in my head, many 
of my TW projects float into one another so there are typically several 
parallel issues"*, in fact this challenge is making me look into ways of 
addressing complex feedback loops, process bootstrapping and iteration in a 
rapid development process. TiddlyWiki inspires more than new tiddlers.

Thanks very much

2017-08-25 Thread 'Mark S.' via TiddlyWiki
Which projects are you looking at, and how do you know the activist user 
base for TW is small?

One of the reasons I went with TW was because of the high activity level.

Looking at Zim, Wikidpad, TakeNote -- activity is practically nil. 
Simplenote doesn't seem to even have a forum.

Evernote forums have fairly high activity levels, but it appears that the 
owner(s) themselves never drop in. Even projects that people really depend 
on like GPG have fairly low traffic, and that is on a mail list.

Ciao codacoder

I think an ANNOUNCEMENTS SPECIFIC Group, or maybe a Strongly Pinned Thread, 
would be VERY good. 

The skill is in its writing. Its not as easy as recycling. 

Judgements need to be made if its gonna work. Without discrimination its a 
slop bucket. It requires someone/people who is/are regularly following 
developments. Have the skill to understand them. Can write them up well. 
That would be INVALUABLE, IMO.

Don't call it a forum :-) 

I agree a PURE place for announcement threads would be a good idea.

WE LACK THE DICTIONARY of what we are doing. That might, over time, build 
it.

I had thought about doing that on Twitter since its relatively easy. And 
nobody there can write you a complex essay back :-).

Ciao on this codacoder ...

I want to add that the ACTIVIST userbase for TW is VERY small relative to 
other projects of equal maturity. What's  interesting is, despite that, its 
vibrant, evolves and works. BUT most every attempt to "scale-out" at the 
moment hits barriers. NOT of will. But of hours. Of not enough people.

A DOWNSIDE is also that because of the locked-in-state on Google that 
commits you to forever wading in a history-fogged swamp (better, your

newbies to find their feet without a clear history. That becomes a bit of a

[tw] Re: tm-new-tiddler isn't loading my template

2017-08-25 Thread 'Mark S.' via TiddlyWiki
Looking at TiddlyWiki.com, I believe it should be param="Template:Book". Is 
there a source somewhere else suggesting $template= ??

Good luck,

2017-08-25 Thread 'Mark S.' via TiddlyWiki
About the Google forums, I know I may be in the minority, but I don't think 
the current arrangement is so bad. That may be partially because whenever I 
find something interesting, I clip it and save it, usually in TiddlyWiki. 
Then, whenever someone else comes along that has a similar question or 
interest, I can look up the information and thread.

If you look around, you can find lots of open source projects that have 
their own website, but they are dead as the proverbial door nail. This is 
probably because over the long haul it was just too much effort to keep the 
site current and active. If those sites have an active component, it's 
usually the forum, which is usually a link to another site, such as the 
Google or Yahoo forums, or a mail list.

Not quite what I meant Mat.  When you announce BatchManipulator, for 
example, I can post feedback to that thread.  So I *should* have said, 
announcement *topics* only.  Better?

As the topic OP, you get to update the original, or, you post again (new 
topic) making the new post a new announcement which seeds higher in the 
list anyway.

There are those (hopefully) rare occurrences, yes.  But what we have right 
now is inferior, IMO.  A plugins group should aid search and, if that's not 
the case in some circumstances, you can just read all the headlines in one 
place.

Thinking further, authors *could* say "Post feedback and questions to the 
main discussion group, please!"  But I personally think it would be better 
in the plugin group, possibly.

Notice that it takes 2 regexps filters to accomplish this (the first global 
one finds the items, the second trims them).

For counts, you can just use the count[] filter after the regexps filter 
you want.

Backup before trying.

Good luck!

[tw] Plugins Group?

2017-08-25 Thread codacodercodacoder
I know there has been talk of moving away from goolag -- sorry, google -- 
groups but it's what we have and it's where new users come and other folks 
are.  

I also know that many have opined the lack of a one-stop-shop/curated list 
of plugins (TiddlyTweeter being the most vociferous/ardent on the topic, I 
think -- he's right, IMO, too).

That said...

Why is there not (or is there?) a goolag group for Plugins?  
TiddlywikiPlugins?

If it was *strictly* for plugin announcements (all other kinds of msgs are 
forcibly removed), wouldn't that be better than the status quo?  If it was 
very strict, then, hopefully, searching would improve, also.

Thoughts?

[tw] Presenting: Batch Manipulator - mass tagging

2017-08-25 Thread Mat
Yeah, the TWaddler gives thee

Batch Manipulator 
*~ bigly manipulate the masses ~*

a tool to simplify tagging/untagging 
*en masse* as well as single tids


In particular, it simplifies *identifying *tiddlers that are distantly 
related so to group (i.e tag) them - see the "green tags" feature.

I've previously made some half measures for this but the tipping point came 
as I'm currently in the process of *converting a big TWC into TW5* (good 
use case!)

Cred: Some early pieces for this were picked from things by TWizards 
*@Mario* and *@Jed*.

P.S I'm involved in a few other threads here that I have not properly 
responded to. I hope to do so eventually and I really appreciate your kind 
replies to my various questions. As someone with a constant tornado of 
ideas in my head, many of my TW projects float into one another so there 
are typically several parallel issues. This also means that your kind 
replies often serve as pieces in several puzzles :-)

[tw] Re: Query: Are Regular Expressions Regular in TW?

2017-08-25 Thread codacodercodacoder
Thomas!!!

Awesome (not a word a throw around like confetti).  Just AWESOME!!!

I recall we talked about textstretch when it was "new", quite some time 
ago. I ended up going my own route with *bk-ann* (and a couple of others, 
like *bk-note* and *bk-problem* which use different colors and are 
"transient" since they're like TODOs).  But *extract* was the missing 
"elephant in the room" ;)  

I'm so pleased and thankful!  Thank you!

[tw] tm-new-tiddler isn't loading my template

2017-08-25 Thread Ivan Aparicio
I'm trying to create a button that will create a book log tiddler:

<$button>
  ''Book''
  <$action-sendmessage 
  $message="tm-new-tiddler" 
  $template="Template:Book" 
  title="Book title" tags="Scrap [[book]]"/>


Everything works, except for the template. I'm 100% sure that I have a 
tiddler named Template:Book, but it isn't being transcluded. Am I doing 
something wrong?

[tw] Filter to search for transclusions that do not exist...

2017-08-25 Thread Jan

Hello,
I got a problem that I cannot solve yet. I would like to have a filter 
to track down transclusions that do not exist (Per Tiddler and in the 
whole wiki...).

Any Ideas how to do this?

Hello Thomas... Is this a task for the extract Macro?

Best wishes
Jan

Ciao Mark S.

Many thanks. I'll test it out and get back to you...

I definitely could use that. Let me go *look at what I'm currently working 
on and find a real use case*. Sub-groups allow a lot of things, like (1) 
moving bits of the matched string around; (2) discarding bits of it you 
don't need; (3) duplicating a sub-group, say as a heading.

Plus. With what you have developed so far *is it possible to return a MATCH 
COUNT*? If that were possible I have definite use cases I can lay out.

This is exciting. 

Best wishes
Josiah
