--rendertiddlers
Note that if I click on a link to the command I go to
where it is said I should not use
`--rendertiddlers` but
`--render`.
If so, why don't the first page use
`--render`?
Whatever, what confuse me is how to use
`--rendertiddlers`, I mean where to type the code?
It looks like an option of some command from my Unix point of view but maybe there is some place in my tiddlywiki I should type that command which starts with `--`. So I searched if I could change the type of a tiddler to be executable, if there is a special tiddler hidden to run that command, but without success.
Then I looked for `commands` in TiddlyWiki and I see
"
A command is one of the following words, written with a --
prefix and used as a command-line option under Node.js,"
Argh, does it means I have to learn how to use Node.js? There is no other way to export my pages? Hopefully there is a link to
"Using TiddlyWiki on Node.js".
Here I find that indeed `--render` is an option of a command and not a command itself and that the main command is `tiddlywiki`.What the hell is the program tiddlywiki? For years I thought that tiddlywiki was the empty.html file.
So there is a tiddlywiki program. How do I download it? Is there is a version for Linux? When I search in Debian packages I cannot find it.
So I am stuck and I lost a lot of time. A good documentation would have given me the command line from the beginning (at least in an exemple) and of course it would have explain me how to download the tiddlywiki program. Of course it would not suggest to use --rendertiddlers and somewhere else says that it is deprecated.
One example does not make a documentation to be bad, but I must say it happened to me more than once that I had to find help on the Internet to understand the documentation. That's a pity because TiddlyWiki is great.

ps: I have no idea why that mail changes the fonts from paragraph to another. I guess it is a cursed day.
The community and Jeremy do accept critisisium where due but as a community we need to remember any member can contribute to improve them.
This is difficult when we look for something we do not understand because until we do we are not competent enough to improve the documentation.
The take home lesson is contribute to the docs with what you understand and ask the community for help about what you dont and when the documentation is imperfect.
on Tiddlywiki.com edit a tiddler and you will see a link to contribute to the docs.
Your post title would have been better being about the info you need than what you used.
Have you tried using the export tiddler button on tiddlers? The word command typically referred to the command line which is only relevant for server or node implementations.

Tony

ask the community for help ...
I don't think anyone should need to be a detective but its important to recognise the source of such material is community contributions.
Otherwise we are in furious agreement.

If it makes you feel better, I went through the same hunt that you did, a couple years ago, thinking there had to be a way to export the entire wiki as static hml files from the single file TiddlyWiki. I think I eventually had to ask here, and was told it can only be done on node.js.
Hi,I love TiddlyWiki but I hate its documentation.
The difference is here real and kind people answer instead of robots! So this is a benefit over Google assistant :-)
@Olivier please ask again.

I have being keen to change the static template to link to the interactive wiki for my own wikisite.

Of course you don't see it if you use the static version which seems to be the one given by google search unfortunately. Maybe the warningat the top of static pages should bring to the right tiddler and explain the doc can be improved there.
