Jed, Thanks for that GenTags plugin. I have being playing With Gen Tags and think it is great. To me its key use case is introducing subjects, categories, and other organising "tags" that allow their own set of values, such that they are not to be mixed with the other tags which are used for

This has been my area of focus while learning Tiddlywiki. I agree that there are not enough "solutions" out there for this very common need in the gaming community. Part of the problem is that "rpg entities" like characters, locations, etc can get very complex, with large amounts of meta-data

Indeed. During my troubleshooting, I did run across a bunch of print layout engines using CSS as the input and PDF as the output but I wanted it to be strictly browser-based. I have tested in with Chrome and Firefox on Linux and Chrome on Windows (the target for my original use-case) but am

I ran the video at 1.25 speed, so might have missed something. *Summary* The interest was mostly about gathering and publishing references for published texts, which is somewhat of a niche specialty. Three of the products were aimed at gathering references. The same 3 had advanced PDF

Ciao Mark S. & Mat Both Mark's comment and the video kinda clarified some of my thoughts on TW. I do have an ongoing concern about SCALABILITY. Yep. It runs in browser and there are limits. BUT I also think in order to be able to design well to use it to its best at scale one needs to

Ciao TonyM I agree that for writing text the plonking in of macros & pragma are somewhat in conflict with "human readable text". In practice I do think "markup" and "programmatic syntax" have somewhat blurred ... I think ordinary users can find them confusing to see at the top of an otherwise

The Label tool got my interest in that its trying to deal with the somewhat complicated problem of getting printers to behave using CSS. This is important if you need to strictly control print layouts. I'm not sure its entirely successful as a generalisable approach. But its a hell of a lot

To partially back up what TonyM said, I did make the GenTags plugin that lets any field act like a tags field. http://ooktech.com/jed/ExampleWikis/GenericTagFields/ I believe that the way to go with this is not to make specific fields act in a certain way but to make it so that any field can
