Just some sample FYI TiddlyWiki code.
Working away at my BASIC Anywhere Machine: Programmer’s Reference, I veered off for a little bit to put together a standard method of linking quotes to the bibliographic sources on the web.
Wherever I happen to quote this book, I add the following:
{{TI-99/4A BASIC Reference Manual||tBib}}
The tBib template tiddler has this:
<$vars thisSource={{{ [get[url]split[::]first[]] }}}
thisURL={{{ [get[url]split[::]last[]] [get[url]] +[first[]] }}}>
{{!!title}}^^<a href={{{ [match[IA]then[https://archive.org/details/]] [] +[join[]] }}} style=“text-decoration:none;font-family:Times New Roman” target="_blank"><>^^
</$vars>
The idea is to have a link right after the book title.
Since many of my references are hosted on the Internet Archive, I’ve decided to avoid entering the common part of the URL’s (“Internet Archive: Error”), replacing that part for each stored url with “IA::”, replacing that with the proper URL prefix when needed.
And the tiddler to display my bibliography :
<$list filter=’[tag[BASIC]tag[Bib]]’>
- ‘’{{||tBib}}’’
** Author(s): {{!!by}}
** Published: {{!!pub_date}}, {{!!publisher}}
</$list>
