Hi Nicholas, the way I would approach it would be to have each code snippet as a separate tiddler and use the list widget (along with a template) to construct your table of tips. Say you have a tiddler called pascal, then you could use the 'new here' button on this tiddler tool bar to create a new tiddler tagged with 'pascal', and put you tips sample code in a field and text (the tip) in the tiddler body, choose a name and save. In the pascal tiddler you would then put the list widget to pull in all the tiddlers tagged pascal (using the currentTiddler variable to obtain the tiddler title - here pascal and filter for tags) and transclude the tips (text and sample code) into a table.
