TiddlyWiki
I really love the idea of TiddlyWiki even if I can’t necessarily seem to put it to use. The things people are doing with JavaScript today really amaze me.
I need to outline a paper, so I grabbed TiddlyWiki. There’s something
called YATWA (yet another
TiddlyWiki adaptation) that has some other neat features. Chief among
them, for me, was “close others”–like “Close Other Tabs” in Firefox.
I merged it into the main TiddlyWiki very easily: I think you just
need to add the button for it (search for onClickToolbarClose), then
copy the handler onClickToolbarCloseOthers (or maybe it wasn’t
plural) from YATWA to TiddlyWiki,
then copy the closeAllBut function from YATWA to TiddlyWiki. Seems
to work well enough; I almost wish it would close tiddlers being
edited, though.
Also, somehow I horked Firefox so I couldn’t save TiddlyWiki.
(TiddlyWiki, helpfully, kept telling me to “try Firefox.”) The answer
was to beat on prefs.js and remove lines that looked like:
pref("capability.principal.codebase.p0.granted", "UniversalXPConnect");
pref("capability.principal.codebase.p0.id", "file:///");
Then Firefox once against started asking me if I wanted to give files
running at file:/// some “enhanced privileges” or something like
that.
