GO The GO button opens the TiddlyWiki file in the twpy Editor.

IN The IN button reveals the TiddlyWiki file in the native system File Browser (The terminal command for File Browser must be set in 'twpy Settings').

RM The RM button (must be double-clicked) removes the TiddlyWiki reference from the twpy Manager (underlying TiddlyWiki file is untouched).

~/.twpy is the location of the folder for your twpy workspace. If you want to restore the default workspace/settings, remove workspacelist.html from this folder.

TiddlyWiki is a work of genius by Jeremy Ruston, who has come up with almost certainly the greatest notetaking application ever. Ingenius self-contained self-replicating single-file design, the most future-proof rich text format, html, that may be readable for centuries when other formats are forgotten.

twpy was created by Rob Zel to be an exremely minimalist, cognatively and computationally efficient editor for TiddlyWiki files. twpy was designed by and for one who has spent hours of every day for years in TiddlyWiki - the powerusers and superfans, the people who can't live without it. In the early days, browser plugins got the job done, although occassionally had saving problems. The death of the plugins forced everyone to migrate to Tiddly Desktop, a rather large program (170 MB) that has all kinds of dependancies on even more bloated software libraries (NW.js, 190 MB). All these complex parts do not always play well on every system.

twpy changes the game with only a few kilobytes of high-level scripting language, and miraculasly, only 1 dependancy: pywebview, which itself only has 1 dependancy. No local or remote server is required. In the spirit of TiddlyWiki, twpy manager uses a html interface inside of a pywebview, opening up opportunitdies for all kinds of skins and mods.

twpy was written in Python to take advantage of the robust and reliable pip package manager, possibly the best in the world, even better than ubuntu's native package manger apt. While the Python language leaves much to be desired compared to more syntatically powerful metaprogramming languages like Ruby, the pip package manager works when all others fail.
