yes, that's perfect - each of the fieldnames were names of data tiddlers.
Thank you!!
And, yes, I have been perusing those filter topics at tiddlywiki.com, but I
never thought of/found "getindex". I'm sure as I learn more the different
parts will start making more sense.
At some point in the past I remember seeing a kind of "flow chart"
explanation of filters, but I didn't find that last night. Have you ever
come across that?
