+title: Filter Syntax History
+tags: [[History of TiddlyWiki]]
+modifier: Jeremy Ruston
+created: 20250730154331065
+modified: 20250730154331065
+
+In response to [[a discussion|https://talk.tiddlywiki.org/t/filter-syntax-history/13058]] about the filter syntax in TiddlyWiki5 I posted this brief personal history.
+
+For context, before TiddlyWiki, I only had practical experience of a very small number of languages: machine code, assembly language, BASIC, FORTH, C, C++ and of course JavaScript. I had a smattering of Java, Pascal and one or two other ancient languages but no experience of actor based languages like Erlang, or modern functional languages.
+
+The story starts with the double square bracket syntax used in wikitext for links. In 2004 this was already an established usage in wikis. However, I switched the ordering of pretty links because I thought Wikipedia's `[[link address|link text]]` was the wrong way around. It broke up sentences: `The file is [[https://site.com/thing|here]]` seems less readable than `The file is [[here|https://site.com/thing]]`. For a long time I regretted this decision, and wished that I had just gone with Wikipedia's established usage. Others have since pointed out that TiddlyWiki's ordering is actually consistent with [[Markdown]], which might be regarded as the winner of the markup wars.
+
+I looked at the double square bracket link syntax is that it establishes a way to quote page/tiddler titles so that they may contain spaces, and don't have to use CamelCase. Thus, right at the start of TiddlyWiki Classic when I was implementing the first iteration of the DefaultTiddlers feature it was natural to use double square brackets to quote titles containing spaces, making a list of titles to be opened at startup.
+
+Soon, I wanted to extend the implementation of DefaultTiddlers so that it could be used to open all tiddlers with a particular tag while retaining backwards compatibility.
+
+A trick that I am apt to use in such situations is to try to engineer things so that the current behaviour is re-interpreted as a shortcut syntax for a new, richer syntax that provides more flexibility. In this case, the idea was that in filters we would  interpret `[[mytiddler]]` as a shortcut for `[title[mytiddler]]`. Then we could put any keywords we like in place of "title", giving us an infinitely extensible syntax. A similar example is the way that we implemented filter run prefixes by retrospectively defining the absence of a prefix as implying a default prefix.
+
+The new syntax was first [introduced in 2007] (see [this commit](https://github.com/TiddlyWiki/TiddlyWikiClassic/commit/1928962ea6811b1ca67378ed3cd62059a9806ae9)), with a simplified syntax that only supported a single `tag` operator but was just about sufficient for intended purpose. The only documentation was a comment in the source code (complete with a typo):
+
+```
+// Filter a list of tiddlers
+//#   filter - filter expression (eg "tidlertitle [[multi word tiddler title]] [tag[systemConfig]]")
+//# Returns an array of Tiddler() objects that match the filter expression
+```
+
+Provision to combine the filter operators had been on my mind from the beginning. When TiddlyWiki 5 started in 2011 I reused the simple implementation from TiddlyWiki Classic. Smashing operators [was finally implemented in May 2012](https://github.com/TiddlyWiki/TiddlyWiki5/commit/8b0703b694e982b2bc448bdb133742164723dd8a).  By the time of the launch the filter language had grown into pretty much what it is today -- see the [documentation for TiddlyWiki v5.1.0](https://tiddlywiki.com/archive/full/TiddlyWiki-5.1.0#Introduction%20to%20Filters).
+
+The filter syntax had undoubtedly evolved into something approaching a programming language. As others have probably expressed much more eloquently, a characteristic of the programming languages that I love is that they start with a small number of principles that are consistently applied and combined. In the case of TiddlyWiki, the list would be very roughly:
+
+* Double square brackets for linking and quoting
+* Curly braces for transclusion
+* Angle brackets for macros (which evolved into variables)
+* Double exclamation marks to indicate fields `{{!!myfield}}`
+* Double hashes to indicate indexes `{{##myindex}}`
+* Smashing together adjacent filter operations by removing the combining `][`
+* The dollar sign as a rough signifier of data owned by the system rather than the user
+
+As I have written about elsewhere I was privileged to know Joe Armstrong, the co-inventor of Erlang, in the last few years of his life – we were working together on a book about TiddlyWiki when he passed away in 2019. Joe had contacted me out of the blue ten years before to express his admiration for TiddlyWiki, and we had developed a friendship. He was actually a big fan of TW5's filter syntax, and used to make me feel better about it by joking that I had (re-)invented the monad, which sounded impressive to me. That doesn't make the filter language any easier to learn, but it does mean that it is *worth* learning: it's a real language, based on the same principles as other languages.
+
+I find it pleasing that the TW5 filter language has its roots in decisions that were taken in the TWC days. It's still hard to learn, but that's an ongoing paradox of programming: people want to do complicated things, and complicated things are complicated. It's hard to see how we could have made filters any simpler without depriving users of the possibility of doing complicated things.

-! Twenty Years of ~TiddlyWiki
 
-We've held a number of livestreams to celebrate twenty years of ~TiddlyWiki. You can watch the recordings here:

-
-Over on GitHub, we celebrated the contributors to TiddlyWiki by [[asking them|https://github.com/TiddlyWiki/TiddlyWiki5/discussions/7983]] for their reflections on the anniversary. We received some interesting and thoughtful responses. For example, this from [[@FND|https://github.com/FND]]:
-
-> TiddlyWiki had an immeasurable, enduring influence not just on my career, such as it is, but also on my values: To this day, I regularly find myself referring back to [[fundamental concepts|https://prepitaph.org/articles/creative-privacy/]] TiddlyWiki instilled in me - many of which are often forgotten or ignored elsewhere. Having this background thus helps me keep my bearings working in this industry, whether it's worshipping at the altar of technical complexity or even just remembering humans exist in the world of technology.
-
-> By TiddlyWiki, I mean people. It was an immense privilege interacting with and learning from this community and the group Jeremy built around it. It also helps reminding myself that this privilege was afforded to me by sheer happenstance; I hope to be paying it forward.

-
-! Origins of TiddlyWiki
-
-Back in 1997 a colleague introduced me to [[Ward Cunningham's original wiki|http://c2.com/cgi/wiki]]. I was impressed that something so powerful could fit into just 700 lines of Perl, and fascinated by the radical reimagining of security and permissions. Like many other developers, I took every opportunity I could to try out various wikis, and to explore their use at work.
-
-The allure of the wiki for me was the feeling that it could eventually disrupt the prevailing paradigm of print-oriented documents and emails.
-
-After watching people use wikis for a few years, I noticed that power users made extensive use of the ability to open multiple wiki pages at once in several browser tabs, making it easier for them to compare and review pages, to copy text between them and to act as a sort of queue of pages yet to be read.
-
-I felt that this ability to manipulate multiple pages at once was central to the ability to refactor a wiki, and it is generally accepted that a wiki that is lovingly refactored tends to be more useful. And yet, standard wiki user interfaces have always been designed exclusively for the presentation and manipulation of single pages at once.
-
-All of these thoughts came together when I saw GMail in April 2004, which used Ajax cleverly to blend individual emails into threaded conversations.
-
-I started experimenting with HTML and JavaScript to explore the idea further. I'd had virtually no experience of either, just having put together some static pages and simple ASP sites in previous lives. Getting my head around these client-side technologies was painful; like everyone else, I was horrified to discover how appalling were the incompatibilities and inconsistencies of web programming.
-
-! Launch of TiddlyWiki
-
-So, in September 2004 I released a primitive [[first version of TiddlyWiki|https://classic.tiddlywiki.com/firstversion.html]]. It was the smallest possible thing that demonstrated the idea: it was a simple, self-contained static 48KB HTML file.
-
-The downside of writing the first version of TiddlyWiki in this way was that it made it completely impractical to use for editing - when you click 'save changes' it just pops up a window showing the data that would be saved if it were possible for an HTML page to write to the file system.
-
-Much of the early feedback was that TiddlyWiki was neat, but that it would be more useful when it was possible to properly save changes. I was a little frustrated, as I thought I knew that it was impossible for an HTML file running in the browser to save changes to the local file system.
-
-Within a few months I saw an experimental Firefox extension that enabled TiddlyWiki to save changes in the browser. Examining the code, I realised that the APIs that it used to write to the file system were actually available in ordinary HTML files - as long as they were loaded via a `file://` URI.
-
-I adapted the Firefox code into the core of TiddlyWiki, and soon added a similar ability for Internet Explorer (making use of an old [[ActiveX|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ActiveX]] control that Microsoft distributed with Internet Explorer).
-
-! Growth of TiddlyWiki
-
-A major milestone in the growth of TiddlyWiki was the creation of "GTDTiddlyWiki" by Nathan Bowers. He took the vanilla TiddlyWiki product and adapted it for the specific application of keeping track of tasks using the popular Getting Things Done methodology. GTDTiddlyWiki was an immediate hit, being enthusiastically greeted on websites like [[LifeHacker|https://lifehacker.com/]].
-
-Over the next couple of years TiddlyWiki continued to grow in popularity, and gained new features and capabilities. Within a year I was able to support myself by performing bespoke development work on TiddlyWiki, notably working with wiki pioneer [[SocialText|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socialtext]] on the ability to synchronise changes with an online server
-
-! BT Acquisition
-
-In May 2007, [[BT]] acquired [[Osmosoft]], my consultancy company. It was an unusual decision to acquire a company with a single employee and a tiny trickle of revenue - [[Osmosoft]] didn't even own the intellectual property in TiddlyWiki since I had handed it over to [[UnaMesa]] to assure its future for the community.
-
-[[BT]]'s motivation was to help them understand community-based ecosystems. I joined the organisation as "Head of Open Source Innovation", taking responsibility for open source governance, and providing advice and expertise on how to participate in open soure communities.
-
-! [[Osmosoft]] and TiddlySpace
-
-I built a team in BT under the name [[Osmosoft]]. Our purpose was to evangelise the benefits of open source, and to help other teams realise those benefits in practice. We also found that it was necessary to evangelise the use of the web in general, and web standards in particular.
-
-Our approach was to focus on showing rather than telling. We worked with the TiddlyWiki community to extend the ecosystem and we built numerous internal systems for BT (some based on TiddlyWiki and some not).
-
-[[Osmosoft]]'s chief contribution to the TiddlyWiki community was the creation of TiddlyWeb and TiddlySpace. TiddlyWeb was a robust, internet scale server for tiddlers that could also compose TiddlyWiki views of those tiddlers. TiddlySpace was an attempt to package TiddlyWeb into a more directly usable form.
-
-! Leaving BT
-
-By the end of 2011 I was increasingly feeling that I would be better placed to realise the potential of TiddlyWiki outside of the corporate confines BT. Accordingly, I left and started work as an independent developer, primarily working on a brand new reboot of TiddlyWiki in the shape of TiddlyWiki5.
-
-! Development of TiddlyWiki5
-
-I worked on new release of TiddlyWiki from November 2011. As a programmer, working on "version 2.0" of something that I had already written is a very attractive proposition. It means that the requirements were fully understood, allowing me to focus on evolving the architecture needed to support the desired functionality.
-
-! The Future
-
-Now that TiddlyWiki5 has finally left "beta" status behind, my hope is that it will have a long life. Because it only uses standard features of HTML5 and Node.js, there is no reason why it cannot be fully operational for many years to come. My goal is for it to last for at least 25 years.

I'd had virtually no experience of either, just having put together some static pages and simple ASP sites in previous lives. Getting my head around these client-side technologies was painful; like everyone else, I was horrified to discover how appalling were the incompatibilities and inconsistencies of web programming.
+
+! Launch of TiddlyWiki
+
+So, in September 2004 I released a primitive [[first version of TiddlyWiki|https://classic.tiddlywiki.com/firstversion.html]]. It was the smallest possible thing that demonstrated the idea: it was a simple, self-contained static 48KB HTML file.
+
+The downside of writing the first version of TiddlyWiki in this way was that it made it completely impractical to use for editing - when you click 'save changes' it just pops up a window showing the data that would be saved if it were possible for an HTML page to write to the file system.
+
+Much of the early feedback was that TiddlyWiki was neat, but that it would be more useful when it was possible to properly save changes. I was a little frustrated, as I thought I knew that it was impossible for an HTML file running in the browser to save changes to the local file system.
+
+Within a few months I saw an experimental Firefox extension that enabled TiddlyWiki to save changes in the browser. Examining the code, I realised that the APIs that it used to write to the file system were actually available in ordinary HTML files - as long as they were loaded via a `file://` URI.
+
+I adapted the Firefox code into the core of TiddlyWiki, and soon added a similar ability for Internet Explorer (making use of an old [[ActiveX|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ActiveX]] control that Microsoft distributed with Internet Explorer).
+
+! Growth of TiddlyWiki
+
+A major milestone in the growth of TiddlyWiki was the creation of "GTDTiddlyWiki" by Nathan Bowers. He took the vanilla TiddlyWiki product and adapted it for the specific application of keeping track of tasks using the popular Getting Things Done methodology. GTDTiddlyWiki was an immediate hit, being enthusiastically greeted on websites like [[LifeHacker|https://lifehacker.com/]].
+
+Over the next couple of years TiddlyWiki continued to grow in popularity, and gained new features and capabilities. Within a year I was able to support myself by performing bespoke development work on TiddlyWiki, notably working with wiki pioneer [[SocialText|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socialtext]] on the ability to synchronise changes with an online server
+
+! BT Acquisition
+
+In May 2007, [[BT]] acquired [[Osmosoft]], my consultancy company. It was an unusual decision to acquire a company with a single employee and a tiny trickle of revenue - [[Osmosoft]] didn't even own the intellectual property in TiddlyWiki since I had handed it over to [[UnaMesa]] to assure its future for the community.
+
+[[BT]]'s motivation was to help them understand community-based ecosystems. I joined the organisation as "Head of Open Source Innovation", taking responsibility for open source governance, and providing advice and expertise on how to participate in open soure communities.
+
+! [[Osmosoft]] and TiddlySpace
+
+I built a team in BT under the name [[Osmosoft]]. Our purpose was to evangelise the benefits of open source, and to help other teams realise those benefits in practice. We also found that it was necessary to evangelise the use of the web in general, and web standards in particular.
+
+Our approach was to focus on showing rather than telling. We worked with the TiddlyWiki community to extend the ecosystem and we built numerous internal systems for BT (some based on TiddlyWiki and some not).
+
+[[Osmosoft]]'s chief contribution to the TiddlyWiki community was the creation of TiddlyWeb and TiddlySpace. TiddlyWeb was a robust, internet scale server for tiddlers that could also compose TiddlyWiki views of those tiddlers. TiddlySpace was an attempt to package TiddlyWeb into a more directly usable form.
+
+! Leaving BT
+
+By the end of 2011 I was increasingly feeling that I would be better placed to realise the potential of TiddlyWiki outside of the corporate confines BT. Accordingly, I left and started work as an independent developer, primarily working on a brand new reboot of TiddlyWiki in the shape of TiddlyWiki5.
+
+! Development of TiddlyWiki5
+
+I worked on new release of TiddlyWiki from November 2011. As a programmer, working on "version 2.0" of something that I had already written is a very attractive proposition. It means that the requirements were fully understood, allowing me to focus on evolving the architecture needed to support the desired functionality.
+
+! The Future
+
+Back in 2014, shortly after TiddlyWiki5 was first released, I wrote:
+
+> Now that TiddlyWiki5 has finally left "beta" status behind, my hope is that it will have a long life. Because it only uses standard features of HTML5 and Node.js, there is no reason why it cannot be fully operational for many years to come. My goal is for it to last for at least 25 years.
+
+As I write this, TiddlyWiki5 is 44% of the way to that goal. With the support and enthusiasm of the community I am confident the project will continue to thrive and evolve.

+
+We've held a number of livestreams to celebrate twenty years of ~TiddlyWiki. You can watch the recordings here:
+
+* 19th September 2024 - https://youtube.com/live/z9slx92TyrU

+* 22nd September 2024 - https://youtube.com/live/oD7Jtq2D4lg
+
+Over on GitHub, we celebrated the contributors to TiddlyWiki by [[asking them|https://github.com/TiddlyWiki/TiddlyWiki5/discussions/7983]] for their reflections on the anniversary. We received some interesting and thoughtful responses. For example, this from [[@FND|https://github.com/FND]]:
+
+> TiddlyWiki had an immeasurable, enduring influence not just on my career, such as it is, but also on my values: To this day, I regularly find myself referring back to [[fundamental concepts|https://prepitaph.org/articles/creative-privacy/]] TiddlyWiki instilled in me - many of which are often forgotten or ignored elsewhere. Having this background thus helps me keep my bearings working in this industry, whether it's worshipping at the altar of technical complexity or even just remembering humans exist in the world of technology.
+
+> By TiddlyWiki, I mean people. It was an immense privilege interacting with and learning from this community and the group Jeremy built around it. It also helps reminding myself that this privilege was afforded to me by sheer happenstance; I hope to be paying it forward.

+The core developers work hard year by year to continuously improve ~TiddlyWiki. Part of the satisfaction is that we are not just building software for ourselves, we’re serving the needs of a wider community of users.
+
+That begs the question of how we can understand the needs of these other users. We do it in an informal way through every interaction with users on the forum, or on GitHub, but once in a while it can be useful to do take a more formal approach, such as survey.
+
+So, we would like to invite you to participate in the ~TiddlyWiki Community Survey 2025. This brief, anonymous survey is designed to give us insight into the needs of TiddlyWiki users, with a mix of structured and freeform questions.
+
+The results of this survey will help inform future developments, helping us focus on what would make TiddlyWiki better for you, both as software and as a community. Even longer-term, it will help us refine the future vision of the project, ensuring it is based on the needs of our community.
+
+The survey will remain open until Monday 11th August 2025. Shortly afterwards, we will aggregate and share the findings.
+
+Take the survey here:
+
+https://ec.europa.eu/eusurvey/runner/tiddlywiki-users-2025
+
+You can explore the questions and responses on this new site:

+The new Surveys site also include the "The Great Viral TiddlyWiki Interview Project" from 2010. We invited TiddlyWiki users to join the interview project with these words:
+
+> For many people that use it. there is a distinct discovery moment when TiddlyWiki explodes in their brain. For others, it is a challenge to get their heads around TiddlyWiki at all.
+>
+> This project explores how people think about TiddlyWiki by collecting together responses to a set of questions about it.
