I didn't know about the mouse undo option. Now I've added research how that 
works though I'm a bit fearful of Undo unless there is a matching Redo.

Thank you. I can't estimate how much time I spent converting those tables 
manually.

And that ultimately is what started me off down this path. The commands for 
bold, underline, and such are far from obvious. I use superscripts and 
subscripts routinely and I sometimes forget what the codes are. The new 
user who hasn't mastered these things has to go back and forth between 
several web pages to extract the necessary information. My observations are 
that most of them get frustrated and quit before they get deep enough into 
TiddlyWiki to appreciate it. Even those who have seen what it can do appear 
to be unlikely to use it on their own because of this educational barrier. 
And while the bookmarklets and keyboard snippets work well, no new user who 
is having problems figuring out how to bold text is ever going to figure 
out how to install those. But if the commands are right there in front of 
them in the form of buttons that are familiar looking because they resemble 
the buttons they see in other programs, the barrier is gone. Your friends' 
comments are exactly what I would expect.
