Subject: Bug with HTML Entities in Pretty Links
TiddlyWiki (both 2.1.3 and 2.2.0 beta 4) don't recognize HTML Entities
in the "pretty label" part of PrettyLinks, and change the "&" into
"&amp;" when they display it. For example, the pretty link below shows
up as "&raquo;" instead of as a right-angle quotation mark, and you'll
see "&amp;raquo;" in the page source code.

    [[&raquo;|ForExample]]

Doing "&raquo;" on it's own, outputs what you'd expect. Having an HTML
Entity in the tiddler title itself is also problematic (in much the
same way), but I'm not actually trying to do that. I can't see any
reason you wouldn't want HTML Entities as the label for pretty links
though.

OK, that's a bug, I've filed a ticket here:

http://trac.tiddlywiki.org/ticket/329

HTML entities don't work at all in tiddler titles because tiddler
titles don't get wikified when they are rendered. I agree it would be
handy if they did work, though.

Best wishes
