Mission: Take out the text from a tiddler and split after a specified string. This works fine:
{{{ [[sometiddler]get[text]splitbefore[tidtitle]] }}} ...but what to do if the tidtitle is instead [[tid title]], i.e surrounded by brackets? How *escape *the brackets *in operator arguments* so they don't interfere with the filter? Merely introducing "*\" *as escape character does not work, i.e: {{{ [[sometiddler]get[text]splitbefore[\[\[tid title\]\]]] }}} Note, it seems mainly to be the *closing *double brackets of the link that cause problems. The following works but feels kinda hacky: {{{ [[sometiddler]get[text]splitbefore[*[[tid title*]] }}} I realize it is solvable with some external macro - i.e first testing the argument to see if it has brackets, then shave it, then return it - but I'm hoping there is a more ready made solution given the *general* need of escaping characters in filter operands.
