context.inTiddler That worked perfectly. Can you direct me to documentation describing the context? I was looking at using the paramaterized tiddlers feature (create a tiddler containing only an FET macro where tiddler == $1, then display that FET macro by using <<tiddler foo with: context.inTiddler>>) and found that I can't really get the intiddler contexxt to work properly by referring to the calling tiddler as opposed to the tiddler being called.
Also, I am glad to hear that FET has such support, I think I shall stick with it.
