The TW core already supports the basic "tags can be tiddlers" concept straight out of the box with a plain TiddlyWiki. When you view a tiddler whose title is also used as a tag, that tiddler automatically displays a 'tagging:' list. However, perhaps you are suggesting that *instead* of opening a non- existent tag tiddler and displaying the list of tiddlers there, clicking the link should display a standard TW tag dropdown (i.e. treat the link, [[FooBar]] as if it was the macro, <<tag FooBar>>). Of course, this would prevent you from being able to subsequently use "open/edit/done" to create the tag tiddler later on. However, there are many TW documents that employ extensive tags without ever creating any corresponding tag tiddlers for them. For those use-cases, the alternative behavior described above for links to non-existent tag tiddlers has some real utility. I think it should be reasonable easy to hook the necessary logic into the 'onclick' handler for the tiddler link... gimme a bit to look into it and I might have a quick code-based solution for you.... -e Eric Shulman TiddlyTools / ELS Design Studios -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
