You can set things up to work this way.

First, use a browser that doesn’t have TiddlyFox (I tested this approach in 
Chrome). Second, ensure your browser is *not* set to prompt for a filename when 
you download a file. Third, open your TiddlyWiki file in the browser, and start 
to work on it. Each time you click the “save changes” button in the sidebar a 
fresh copy of the file will be downloaded with the latest changes, named 
“filename (2).html”, “filename (3).html” etc.

There is one quite significant “gotcha” with this approach, though. If you 
click the browsers refresh button (or restart your browser) then you’ll revert 
to the unmodified file, losing your most recent changes. To recover those 
changes, you need to load the latest version of the file that was saved (ie the 
one with the highest number).

Best wishes

Jeremy.
