Dear Jeremy, Thanks again for your insight. Just as a follow-up as to what I found. I took the sample text I posted previously and used Sublime to add break tags between each paragraph. When outputted in slicer, I got: - All the text which is not a header in one chunk - Heading 1 -

Hi LG Interesting, can you share an excerpt of some of your text? It sounds like you’d benefit from finer control over the tiddlerisation; perhaps making a tiddler for heading, rather than for each paragraph. Best wishes Jeremy > On 8 May 2016, at 15:02, LG wrote: > > Great tool! Thank you.

Great tool! Thank you. I copied Word into Mammoth.js (on a WP site) then into a text editor to remove all the paragraph tags. When I pasted the newly cleaned text over into TW and sliced it, I ran into the million or so new tiddlers at the paragraph level. Has there been any progress on keepin

A little bit, yes. But it didn't take an inordinate time to parse out manually. I see the potential of the autoslicing making it *way* easier with some custom delimiters and maybe a sed-type filter to filter out all the "back to top" links. I dread handling updates ... I don't know of a good effic
