Re: [tw5] Any way to include not full tiddler but only part of it.

I grew with you John.
We should learn this, Use tiddller fired as the most smallest part and tiddller 
as smallest one.
It take time to get used to this concept.

 Thanks Mark, I think I'll abandon that line of usage


Tony, that's useful about the date format.  Thats probably why I was having 
trouble using the "days" operator.  I was about to post a separate question 
on that, but I'll try changing my date format first :)

With the coming of a new year I've extended the tabbed calendar. Since my

[tw5] Re: Why is there no table of content in the empty wiki?

2018-11-03 Thread TonyM
For new users

To me wherever we add the documentation, we need more info in referencing the 
current tiddler, most peoples answers involve literal references to tags and 
tiddler names, but if you want to copy wiki text to another tiddler, make a 
global macro or place it in the view template solutions need to refer to 
currentTiddler.

This was one of my biggest frustrations when first using tw5

[tw5] listing related tags (not children or parents)

The first thing that comes to mind with your request is two nested lists, one 
to list the tiddlers, the inner to list tiddlers tags and do what you want for 
each of the listed tiddlers.

You need to close every list widget with  unlike the example at the end 
of your post.

What you ask can be done easily, it just takes adding the pieces together.

Dave,

Fyi

If you create a field in a text file to become a tiddler, and rather than use 
-mm-dd you enter a date of format 0mm0dd where zero means leading zero 
below 9. The resulting field can be formatted to a date with the view widget, 
the you can determin day of week, month of year etc...

[tw5] Re: need help with regex filter

2018-11-03 Thread 'Mark S.' via TiddlyWiki
There's no filter or widget that will currently split out the text that you 
find with a regular expression.

The PR #2963 I proposed would do that.

Jeremy has a concept for a <$match> widget that would find strings inside 
of strings. Unclear what the timeline for that is.

Another possibility might be to use the range filters and nested lists to 
generate all possible dates within a range. Then test for each possible 
date inside of the text, and, when found report the generated date and the 
tiddler that contained it.

If the dates inside the tiddler have a specific relationship to the text 
(e.g. Birthdates, appointment dates) then perhaps those dates should go 
into their own fields, which would make it unnecessary to do a regular 
expression process on the entire text. My understanding is that regular 
expressions are processor-heavy (though that makes more difference on a 
tablet then on a desk-top).

[tw5] Re: Extracting a specific row of text from a tiddler?

2018-11-03 Thread TonyM
I would like to build and edit toolbar button to wrap a line with or without a 
link/reference to a tiddler that can be referenced from elsewhere.

I see no problem excising the text into a field of any name into that tiddler 
and leaving a text reference behind. A default fieldname ending in a number 
could be generated. We may also maintain a link in the text to ensure reference 
are generated back to the tiddler.

Basicaly we would then have a feature that allows subtext of a tiddler to be 
called on. With a little smarts we could have a search that finds all tiddlers 
that reference a tiddler, then searches excerpts in filds that contain that 
tiddler title.

These excerpts can be transcluded elsewhere by reference to the tiddler/field, 
even edited.

Any thoughts?

[tw5] Re: listing related tags (not children or parents)

2018-11-03 Thread 'Mark S.' via TiddlyWiki
It's a little hard to understand your use-case, but if I understand right, 
then this might do what you want:

<$set name="tag" value="tiddler1"> 
<$list filter="[tagtags[]] -[tag] -[]">




(that blank space in the middle is important, BTW).

The tag value gets set as a variable and then used in the filter. First it 
finds all the items tagged by "tiddler1", then all the tags of those items. 
Then it subtracts all the items tagged by "tiddler1" and the value of 
"tiddler1" itself.

Welcome to the community!

I tried the code you wrote, but it did not work nor for me, so I modified 
it:

<$list filter="[tag[Project]tags[]]"/>

It collects all the tiddlers that have the "Project" tag and then collects 
their other tags.

If I understand you, you are actually interested in the tag intersections, 
thus you might find it useful:

Some hurdles demand narative explanation of concepts which are implied but not

Being able to construct things themself right away

Gain insight to the possibilities of tiddlywiki that they can practicaly do.

[tw5] Re: need help with regex filter

2018-11-03 Thread Dave
I'll tell you why I want this for context.

With the new Bob edition of TW5 that allows instances on Android and PC 
with tiddlers as files, I want to be able to (even when I don't have a 
node.js instance running - e.g. on a computer where the tiddlers folder has 
been shared  but I don't even have node installed) quickly create a text 
note ("some note.tid") that I want to have a due date associated with it.  
I was wanting to just add the "tag" something like ;;2018-11-03 or 
..2018-11-03 somewhere in the text (to be picked up later by the regex). 

Having looked into it a bit, I see now that as long as I make a tid  file 
with at least a "title: some note" at the first line, I can put "due: 
2018-11-03" on the  second line and it will automatically be picked up by 
the BobTW as a tiddler with a field called "due"


Just for interests sake however, I would like to know if it is possible to 
get a list displayed of text like ";;2018-11-03" simply by finding it with 
regex.

[tw5] listing related tags (not children or parents)

2018-11-03 Thread haroulito
Dear TW community,
I am using TiddlyWiki a lot lately but I am a novice in terms of fiddling 
with it. I am looking for a way to list related tags to a list of tiddlers 
(returned by list filter, for instance). I've searched a few times but 
can't find something and I'm wondering whether there is an easy way to 
implement it.

A simple scenario is given below:
Let's say tiddler1 tags two other tiddlers (tiddler2 & tiddler3) and when 
we run list filter it returns:

   - tiddler2 
   - tiddler3

I then need to get the parent tiddlers of tiddler2 (i.e those tagging 
tiddler2, as opposed to those tagged by tiddler2 which we can get with list 
filter or toc-selective-expandable).

I need to do the same for tiddler3, aggregate and list the results (ideally 
with a count of the number of tiddlers tagged by each "related" tag). This 
way I can see that tiddler2 which is tagged by tiddler1 is also tagged by 
e.g. tiddler4. This helps to view how I can narrow down long lists of 
results through the use of "related" tags.

Another way to view this might be: for a given tiddler go one level down in 
the toc tree, see if any of the branches intersect with other toc trees and 
get all parents of the intersections.

Any hints as to how to implement this? Apologies if a solution exists and I 
haven't come across it. I just came across the filter/plugin by bimlas but 
didn't have a chance to test it yet so not sure if it will tackle the 
problem.

Many thanks 
haroulito

[tw5] Re: Why is there no table of content in the empty wiki?

2018-11-03 Thread Thomas Elmiger
Just some thoughts: 

Instead of making a new edition, I think we should have a series of 
plugins, e.g.

   - TiddlyWiki QuickStart Guide
   - TiddlyWiki Filter Guide
   - TiddlyWiki Server Guide
   - ...
   - TiddlyWiki Glossary
   
Why plugins?

   - You can install them when you need them.
   - You can delete them when you are done learning.
   - Qualified authors can focus on their favorite topic, no 
   editor-in-chief is required.

The GettingStarted tiddler on tiddlywiki.com could then recommend to

   - download Empty edition
   - find a method to save (needs revision too)
   - check out Guide plugins

Maybe a Guide developer edition could be helpful to set a standard, 
including Tinka and macros for documentation.

Just my five cents. Have a nice Sunday!
Thomas

I really like it. 

What I would like is a feature TiddlyMap has: double click on the map and 
open the tiddler. 

I happen to know Jeremy is a big fan of the zoomable interface. I wonder .. 
how might this development fit into wider ambitions for ZUIs in TW

Erwan's aggregator IS functioning still, I think. The page says it last ran 
just a few hours ago.

The issue is probably (1) few people know it exists; (2) you have to sign 
up to get indexed and many don't sign up.

You need to define a custom CSS class named "floatleft" that has the rule 
for images within it... like this:

.floatleft img { float:left; }

Then, to apply the floatleft class to a tiddler containing an image, you 
can write

@@.floatleft [img[...]] @@

Not sure I follow you.

If you have a row in Tiddler3, called row1, then in Tiddler3 you can refer 
to it by {{!!row1}} and in some other tiddler by {{Tiddler3!!row3}}. If you 
ever need to change the contents of row3, you only need to do it in one 
location.

[tw5] Re: Quick $:/tags/Stylesheet question

2018-11-03 Thread 'Mark S.' via TiddlyWiki
Not sure what you mean by "tagged as in the title". The title of the 
stylesheet tiddler can be anything.

The styles created in the stylesheet  will apply everywhere. In order to 
make them work only where you want, to have to make the selectors more 
specific.

So if you've tagged things as "FloatLeft" then your style sheet might need 
to look like:

[data-tags *="FloatLeft"] img
{
float: left;
}

The attribute selector used here is fairly new. There was another way to do 
this in the past. See 
https://tiddlywiki.com/#Custom%20styles%20by%20data-tags for more details.

I might add that "float: left" seems to be a default, but that's another 
issue.

Good luck!

> TiddlyWiki is meant to be non-linear. Putting a TOC in the empty version 
goes against the principles used in dreaming up TiddlyWiki.

@David Gifford: Now I understand why there is no ToC in the blank version. 
The user is thus forced to think in non-linear notes and to use the search 
bar, such as https: //www.wikipedia.org. This is good on the one hand 
because it is new a way of thinking for the user, but if he does not likes 
this way, he will immediately stop knowing Tiddly.

> Perhaps there should be a new user edition

> My take would be that the documentation (most of your list) should stay 
on tiddlywiki.com, rather than a parallel scaled down version that has to 
be maintained separately.

@TonyM: I have to agree with @David Gifford: the documentation must be 
written in one place (at Tiddly's website), in the "quickstart" version 
only the appropriate links should be placed.

> In addition to better documentation, we should have a) an array of 
editions for various use cases and b) a library of one-function-only nearly 
empty tws that have one thing

I like the library of one-function-only solution, plugins are also 
available in this way. In the quickstart, perhaps these links could be 
placed instead of links to the descriptions, because users primarily want 
to use the program, not learn it.If they miss a function, they can search 
for a working solution from this list. Still thinking about this: this list 
could be a central place because if we put new elements into it, they will 
not appear in previously downloaded versions (even an idea: transclude this 
list, so it would look like a general tiddler).

> But if a few key players could commit themselves to devote 2-3 hours a 
month (or whatever) to evaluating and cleaning up documentation on 
tiddlywiki.com, that would go a long way.

+1, I think it would be a good thing, but not on tiddlywiki.com (see below).

> When you can spend an afternoon making documentation, and then have it 
ignored for more than a year ... well, I give up. I currently have 10 PR's 
outstanding. It is too frustrating.

@Mark S: Unfortunately, I know this feeling. I saw the same problem with 
Vim: the main developer is not always open to the user's involvement so 
users started working on an alternative project, NeoVim. One solution might 
be to further develop the official documentation in another location and 
add new descriptions to it, so it would not have to wait for Jeremy to 
approve it. The official documentation could include a link to this 
"community documentation".

Summing up my thoughts:

* The blank version should contain a list of one-function-only versions
* Create a copy of the central documentation (tiddlywiki.com), which we 
control ("community documentation")
* "Community documentation" could include different techniques and best 
practices (the reference pages would not be included, those can still be 
accessed at tiddlywiki.com)

Mark S. I agree with all you wrote.

And I hear and see the frustration. In my own case, more observer than 
doer, I find the main Github very UNsatisfying to even read.

IMO, we are locked into a "two-men-and-one-dog" problem ... the demands 
seriously ahead of fulfillment from lack of workers. And the few people 
committed in it can't possibly keep up.

Regarding the OP ... I think its best thought of as part of some kind of 
strategic "outreach" someone interested needs do (enthusiast like TonyM?), 
rather than demand on a central system that can't cope.

[tw5] Re: Why is there no table of content in the empty wiki?

2018-11-03 Thread @TiddlyTweeter
I agree and disagree with most of you :-).

I'd say we don't need more burden on "Central Systems" to provide the kind 
of needed solution Bimlas in the OP points to. Which is real. But is 
getting it "core-ish" the right way?

I suspect the solution is more likely along the lines of TonyM, But a bit 
less complicated. I think he gets very right the central notion of "Wiki 
For Purpose" with instructions included for ITS PURPOSE.

In other words: the issue devolves to having a serious SHOWCASE of wiki 
made for narrower purposes than TW "in potentio".

TW empty is a "vorpal sword" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vorpal_sword) 
where a newbie often won't have a clue how to activate the "vorpal" for 
their benefit... But a honed self-documented wiki for a SUB-MARKET, I'm 
sure it will, IF it can be got to that market.

Best wishes
Josiah

[tw5] Re: Why is there no table of content in the empty wiki?

2018-11-03 Thread 'Mark S.' via TiddlyWiki
There's a lot of good documentation on TiddlyWiki.com. It just doesn't hang 
together in narrative form, and for some reason new users aren't 
discovering the friendly write-ups about filters and such.

Perhaps we could quiz new users about what they did and didn't find at TW 
when they went looking for answers.

As for fixing docs at TW, I feel that is hopeless with the current 
situation. When you can spend an afternoon making documentation, and then 
have it ignored for more than a year ... well, I give up. I currently have 
10 PR's outstanding. It is too frustrating.

I've started on my own manual. I started it in Dynalist actually, but then 
switched to org-mode because it has more authoring tools (bookmarks, 
spell-check, etc.). But for a group-project it would need something like 
DL. It's hard to maintain the enthusiasm because the user base is so small 
-- you know, once someone learns something ... they're no longer a beginner!

[tw5] Re: Why is there no table of content in the empty wiki?

2018-11-03 Thread David Gifford
Just to be clear, what you are proposing is something inbetween empty.html 
and tiddlywiki.com? An edition for newbies that has introductory 
documentation and a few things preinstalled?

My take would be that the documentation (most of your list) should stay on 
tiddlywiki.com, rather than a parallel scaled down version that has to be 
maintained separately. What is needed is to make a lot of the existing 
documentation more user friendly for soccer moms and busy office workers. 
The problem is that not everyone here can write in that way - they have 
been techies for too long, and an explanation that sounds abundantly clear 
to them - and is - is not clear at all for the rest of us. So they double 
down on explaining the abstract definition of a filter or widget, thinking 
that will help. Most of us couldn't care less about the definitions and the 
concepts. We just want to know what we might use it for and how to use it 
without destroying the Internet.

I did some of the work - a number of the tiddlers at 
https://tiddlywiki.com/#Working%20with%20TiddlyWiki back in 2014. And of 
course the toolmap and my earlier "TW for the rest of us" and TiddlyVault 
for classic TW. But I don't have time or knowhow to do much more nowadays.

In addition to better documentation, we should have a) an array of editions 
for various use cases and b) a library of one-function-only nearly empty 
tws that have one thing - vertical tabs, a table of contents, etc - and 
instructions on how to install that one thing and modify it, both for 
mobile and for laptop. Then have links to these things on tiddlywiki.com 
and the toolmap or whatever is cooked up to replace it.

One issue is that it is less glamorous - and feels like a step backwards -  
for most TW regulars to spend time looking at the basic stuff we learned 
years ago in order to help others understand them. We would rather create 
new cutting edge stuff. For some, that means new plugins. For me that means 
new combinations of elements to create new workflows for my personal uses - 
notetaking, organizing my ideas, web publishing, and productivity. It is 
easy to feel we have too many important things to do at those levels, and 
that doing documentation would be a boring chore and a bad use of our time. 
But if a few key players could commit themselves to devote 2-3 hours a 
month (or whatever) to evaluating and cleaning up documentation on 
tiddlywiki.com, that would go a long way.

okay that is my two cents for today. Blessings.

Actually, I'd be really thankful, if you describe the main advantages in 
terms of architecture: on the one hand, because I need to sometimes decide 
whether I should invite somebody to use TWc or point to TW5 instead; and on 
the other hand, because I'm considering some architecture changes and 
learning the already-gathered experience would be really helpful.

If there's some text that covers the topic already, feel free to just 
provide a link.

Best regards,
Yakov.

Hey all,

As the title says, I want to transclude all  tiddlers of the 
"#Power"  and "#Powerbase" tags and include each individual 
tiddler's  tittle  below the transcluded content. Do you know how I might 
be able to rewrite the tiddler below to include such?.  
   


<$list filter="[tag[#Power]]">
<$transclude mode="block"/>


<$list filter="[tag[#Powerbase]]">

[tw5] Re: need help with regex filter

2018-11-03 Thread TonyM
Dave,

The dates are typicaly held in fields in each tiddler eg created and modified. 
If your list widget is not using the variable parameter, the currentTiddler is 
set for each title found in the filter (inside the list widget), so you can 
refer to the the field as follows {{!!created}} but this returns the actual 
content, a date serial number. You can use the view widget, format=date or 
format=relativedate to format the date/time fields how you want. With 
format=date you need to provide the template format, eg template="-0MM-0DD".


EG

<$list filter="that generates a list of tiddlers">
{{!!title}} <$view field=created format=date template=" MMM"/> OR 
{{!!created}}


For someone used to using list-links you may want to replace {{!!title}} with 
the link widget <$
link to={{!!title}} tooltip="Custom tooltip">{{!!title}}

Above typed from memory not rested.

Ps search for the date fields not a regex form of date with has[fieldname]]

Tony

Tony

With all due respect, I advised you and others to move away from list-links 
macro to the <$list widget previously, it is much more customisable.

Just ask when you want more help because list and its filters is in my view the 
key to tiddlywiki.

<$set name="digit-pattern" value=";;[0-9]{4}-[0-9]{2}-[0-9]{2}">
<$list filter="[regexp:text]" variable="mydates">

but I was expecting that this would list all the dates found, but it just 
lists the tiddler titles that have those dates.


Does anyone know how to return the actual dates found and not just the
