David, I'm playing with using the existing excise button with "macro" option (specifying your det macro), and I'm not yet seeing how your complaint about extra <p> tags works. That is, I'm getting results that look just like your more baroque macrocalls.
In other words, editing the home outline tiddler at your site, if I replace <$macrocall $name=det tid="Failures of commentaries"/> with <<det "Failures of commentaries">> I see no difference in how the result displays, either collapsed or expanded. Could you clarify what the problem is? -Springer On Wednesday, July 14, 2021 at 9:19:47 AM UTC-4 David Gifford wrote: > > Hi everyone > > Yesterday I teased a modest macro that has the capability of turning > TiddlyWiki into an outliner. > https://groups.google.com/g/tiddlywiki/c/gCp5ONBxFXg (first half) > > I am thinking about packaging it as a plugin called Subsume, but one item > seems to call for attention. > > If I could add this macro as a new option for the excise dropdown, not as > a macro but as a macrocall, that would allow users to excise text and turn > it into a link/slider in the present tiddler instead of transcluding it or > linking it. > > But two things hold me back: > 1.
