Checklist are good. They even save lots of lifes!

Does any one have a good receipe to manage checklists? What I *think*
that I would want would be
* Have a simple way to create a checklist template/class
(StepsToBeatSupervillains)
* Have a simple way to create checklist instances from them
(FightingFuManchu FightingDrNo)

Desired attributes:
-persistance not cookie-based
-checklits "transcludeable" in other tiddlers

Thanks in advance for any input!

You might want to take a look at TiddlyPackingList:

I don't think it provides the flexibility you're asking for though.

Very nice article, thanks for sharing.

I recently created a checklist for a procedure I do at work, and I'm
quite comfortable with how I created it.

You need parttiddlerplugin from http://www.abego-software.de and
checkboxplugin from tiddlytools.com

to create the checklist I use numbered lines like these:
# [_] <<slider chksstep1 ./step1 "Wait until 18:05" "Step 1">>
# [_] <<slider chksstep2 ./step2 "Wait until 18:05" "Step 2">>

then below the checklist itself I have the tiddlerparts:
<part step1 hidden>
Some info
</part>

<part step2 hidden>
Some other stuff
</part>

This way I can have a simple checklist, but more detailed information
right at my fingertips in case I forget the more nuanced details of
that step. I like the parttiddlerplugin because I don't have to open
another tiddler to edit the information, it's already in the tiddler
below the checklist.

One of the methods I've used is a forEach to list all tiddlers with a
certain tag into a check list. And then you can get as simple or
complicated as you desire.

For example I have a sortable list in a table that shows me:

<<toggleTag completed "tiddler.title" "">>
Train Date (pulled from a custom field in the format of YYYY/0MM/0DD
so it sorts nicely)
[[tiddler.title]]
customfield1 ([[Assigned To]] clickable so I can get to that person's
contact info)
customfield2 (Training Code)
customfield3 (Date I shipped it)
customfield4 (Location)

To make it easy to add new items I have a customized newTiddler button
in the list tiddler, as well as in my MainMenu.
