While editing a tiddler, it is tedious to copy-paste the links to tiddlies when trying to link to other tiddlies

Is it possible to automate this using existing plugins - or with auto-suggestions?

You didn't indicate if this is for [TW5] or [TWC].

In TiddlyWiki Classic (TWC), you can use:

which provides a "toolbar" of buttons that assist with editing wiki-formatted content.  Included in the QuickEditToolbar is a button that displays a droplist of all tiddler titles.  Selecting a tiddler title automatically inserts a fully-formatted link to that tiddler into the tiddler textarea edit field.  Q.E.D.

Sorry I can't offer you a TW5-based solution today, but there is currently no TW5 plugin equivalent to QuickEditPackage  However, I *am* planning to work on plugin "migration" for TiddlyTools from TWC to TW5.  Unfortunately, with over 200 original plugins, scripts, themes, etc., it will take quite a while (several months, at least) for me to re-design and re-implement even a fraction of them.  Nonetheless, it's likely that a TW5 equivalent to the TWC QuickEditPackage will be near the top of the list.

Wow! U nailed it - This was what I was exactly looking for http://www.tiddlytools.com/#QuickEdit_link

It was [TWC]

BTW (from whatever I could understand) - an amazing structure of the QuickEditPlugin u have there!

Will this in general slow down editing/saving my Tiddly (it has grown to 3.1 mb now & I HAD TO remove a few "fancy" plugins since it was too sluggish !!)

:)
Thanks Shulman

Just so that it helps some1 else who comes here...

I was looking for a smart/quick way to be able to easily insert a pre-defined list of frequently used long tiddlies' names in my text


I have added the frequently used tiddlies at the end of http://www.tiddlytools.com/#QuickEdit_customList and got it working

I was looking for such a feature a long time ago. Yesterday I wrote this little example, which could be a good starting point for a more sophisticated plugin:

Hi Albert,

Nice! is there a way to include this feature in an existing [TWC] wiki as a plugin ?

Thanks,
Ram

I'm not a programmer like others here, but maybe I'll give it a try soon (perhaps this weekend). Hope that TW Gurus like Eric could jump in and help :)
I think that this feature should be standard in TWC and TW5.
