Swicky, I am sure it would be possible to apply an unknown number of filters in a filter search.
I think there would be more value in explaining what you want to do, than asking questions halfway through your current attempt to answer these questions. There are a number of ways to concatenate text of any type into a variable which you can then use in a filter and other places. Of course the order is important in filters. Similarly you can use nested <$list widgets to separate the "problem" into a number of filter statements rather than trying to force many into one. The trick is to use the variable=variablename parameter of one list widget as the "input" "[<variablename>... to the next List widget, unless you always refer to current Tiddler and do not use the variable parameter. The reality however is, what are these filter meant to achieve?, because once experienced with filter's there is a lot that can be done with "smart" filters". Perhaps you do not need to concatenate these filters as you think. Why are your filters unknown in number and what are they trying to find.
