Hi all,

I am a newbie

Thanks for the gr8 piece of software ! My search for THE personal organizer ended with Tiddly !

Is there a reverse of WikiWords - namely can I populate all Tiddlers which have a specific keyword?
Example : If I add a Keyword like TODO in a tiddler, can I Quickly populate all Tiddlers which have TODO
Is there a feature that implements this?

( Using the regexp Search is definitely an option though ! )

Thanks 4 ur time,

Regards,
Ramnath

As this question relates to basic TW *usage*, it would be better to
ask on the main TiddlyWiki Group, rather than the TiddlyWiki DEV group
(which is used to discuss internal development of the TWCore and
related 'system level' issues)

> *Example : If I add a Keyword like TODO in a tiddler, can I Quickly populate
> all Tiddlers which have TODO*

By "keyword", I think you mean "tag"
By "populate", I think you mean "display"

You can *tag* a tiddler with any keyword you want (e.g, "TODO").

Then, you can easily display all tiddlers with that tag:
1) Go to the sidebar tabs (right side) and select the "tags" tab.
2) Then, find the desired tag ("TODO") and click on it
3) A popup is displayed with the titles of all matching tiddlers
4) At the top of the popup list, there is an "open all" command

If you truly meant "keyword" (as in embedded text within the content),
then yes, using the built-in TWCore regexp-based search will display
all matching tiddlers.

enjoy,

addendum: if you install
http://www.TiddlyTools.com/#SearchOptionsPlugin

you can then use the plugin-defined enhanced syntax:

[search[text to find]]
or [search[text to display|text to find]]

to create a *link* that invokes a search on the specified text.
