Chris, should we perhaps host them as static files on tiddlyweb.com, so
people don't have to manually copy and paste?
It should be rather simple to take this now and create a PortableApps
distribution* by packaging it with Portable Python (thus the use of App
and Data directories in both scripts).
Any volunteers?

Yep, that's right.

Well, there's currently no web interface for that (hopefully soon-ish),
so you're left with twanager on the command line - which admittedly is a
bit tricky to invoke with this portable setup.
I've just added two scripts to simplify this:
http://gist.github.com/235101
http://gist.github.com/raw/235101/208db3525eaa68c06c1a99acbe71c1a954cdb6da/manage.bat
http://gist.github.com/raw/235101/834f3fe414a95f9be294bfb9616b973291322938/twanager.bat
Put both manage.bat and twanager.bat in the same directory as the other
batch files; manage.bat is just a simple way to get to the command
prompt - from there you can run twanager.bat (e.g. "twanager.bat info").

Just click through to the wiki representation of your chosen collection,
or go directly to http://localhost:8080/recipes/default/tiddlers.wiki.
I hope this helps you get a better idea of how things fit together, and
continue your exploration.

By the way, if you invoke any commands that expect input, you terminate
this with CTRL+Z and Enter:
C:\Portable\TiddlyWeb>twanager.bat tiddler common Foo
modifier: FND
lorem ipsum dolor sit amet
^Z

Then I'm afraid something's wrong - you should have a "default" recipe.
Perhaps run install.bat again.
It would help if you could illustrate your directory structure - it
should look something like this: http://i45.tinypic.com/15ee1zn.jpg
(Really, Windows, you make me take a screenshot?)
