Just a small warning.

I have noticed that if in tid1 Fl identifies a tid2's title and marks it as a link, the backlink to tid1 does not show up in tid2 - I am using TiddlyBlink.

The backlink only shows up if the identified text section is put between double square brackets.

That is how it is designed. There has being discussion on how to improve this including with the alias plugin as well. Freelinks is of course recent.

We could use a list widget and search filter to find all tiddlers containing the string equivalent of the title if you want. We could display this in the info for each tiddler or at the bottom of the matching tiddler.

This would effectively be the same if not actual backlinks. In effect we need the link to go back to it. The freelinks plugin makes it a link only in the final display. The Relink plugin may, I believe also be able to find where a title is and rename it, perhaps some of its code could be used to turn such titles into links so we get the back link from them.

Thanks Tony, I realise that, I just wanted to make Freelink users aware of it :-)
