This may be somewhat off-topic but does anyone know of a solution that works like tiddlywiki as far as the user is concerned but backend doesnt save to the same html file? Kind of along the lines of someone else asking in the group I was wondering if I could add some basic "code block" stuff to some of the tiddlers i've installed another wiki but it doesnt seem at all the same they dont look built for quick tiddler creation / organization

I do not understand you completely.

I run TiddlyWiki from NodeJS. All my tiddlers are stored in individual .tid files, which then I convert to html when necessary.

Brandon,

Saving to a html file refers to the single file version. It all depends on the saver operating at the time, In recent release and the pre-release there is additional support for choosing the save filename and more.

To some degree you are talking about hacking the save mechanism. I think I understand what you are doing but you have being too brief.

"don't look built for quick tiddler creation / organization" I have no idea how you conclude this from what you have said and I disagree with it.

I for one are on a long an slow journey to do some hacking in this area, but I can hardly explain it myself, but to respond in detail to such a short post is impossible.
