TW5 How to save code? TW5

[Jørn Madsen]

Hi

I've been using TW5 for a year now, mostly for notes concerning Network configuration and Python programming.

I haven't been able to find a workaround to save code I can save directly. A simple example:

def factorial(n):
    result = n

    for i in range(1,n):
        result *= i

    return result

When saving the tiddler, the indentation and new lines is often lost,- I've tried the tripple quotes to "freeze" the text without any luck.

Any advise?

B.R.

You can always change the type of the tiddler to either "text/plain" or "application/x-python", so that the content isn't run through the wikitext parser.
You can also use the highlight plugin to get nice syntax highlighting as well.

THANKS !! :-)

I've been struggling with this ... reading about plugins and different advanced stuff ...

This was a wonderful perfect simple solution.

Thanks mate :)

As Andreas said, you could change the tiddler type. Though if you are adding descriptions or annotating, your short example seems to work with the back-ticks. Did you try HTML pre or code tags? Test sample attached.

Hi Jørn ,

try this

```

def factorial(n):
    result = n

    for i in range(1,n):
        result *= i

    return result
```

Hi Mario

Thanks,- I've tried that,- but it did not "freeze" the text.

But now I have imported HighLight and uses the text conversion,- so far this seems to work perfectly.

Also for very large configurations with hundreds of lines :)

Thanks for your answer :)
