Wow, I missed a lot of new things. I wasn't aware of the count operator. To give some examples of what Mat is talking about here is how you would use it to get an input to a macro (copy and paste this into a tiddler on tiddlywiki.com to see what the two methods do):
\define DoSomething() The filter counted $(number)$ tiddlers \end \define DoSomethingElse(number) The filter counted $number$ tiddlers \end !!Method 1 - Substitution <$list filter='[tag[HelloThere]count[]]' variable='number'> <<DoSomething>> </$list> !!Method 2 - Macrocall widget <$list filter='[tag[HelloThere]count[]]' variable='number'> <$macrocall $name=DoSomethingElse number=<<number>>/> </$list> As Matthew Lauber said, you can also use a set widget to make the variables, I just like the list widgets for some reason. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
