[image] TW_Tones: Has anyone previously made a process to compare two tiddlers, with different titles or one being a shadow and the other an edited shadow tiddler including, comparing all or most field values The TW preview can handle that for the tiddler text [image]

Thanks @pmario I was aware of that. I have also noted that the input process allows examination of differences as well as for fields. Although in both cases they do so graphically.

@wjamoe very comprehensive. I will keep this reference for when I need it. However what I am looking for is a simple test of each field (except nominated fields) with a change to use programmatically rather than visually.
