8.6 is full of goodness: ā several features with high interest level on this forum in recent weeks.
Just starting to play, but this is AWESOME.
Please please do a video 
This is a very nice surprise! Some really nice touches ā the suggested links panel and the navigation within ziplinks are going to be very useful.
Great stuff - thanks!
Amazing work on the just-in-time documentation.
The text Links pane and ziplinks (and enhancement of older āquicklinksā) show some very responsive work by Eastgate to recent user requests here. Eastgate and beta testers have been working these features up to the wire, so it will be useful to hear of gaps in documentation.
The aTbRef ziplinks article is rather long IMO and will probably decompose in due course but I wanted to get the docs up alongside the new release. The articles on prototypes and on built-in prototypes also probably need breaking out into more discrete pages, but again Iāll do that later. The Links pane has been real help doing link triage when adding/refactoring notes in recent days.
As ever, do please report typos/omissions to me. I genuinely want to knowāso I can fix them.
Great job! I actually understand how to use these new features from reading your instructions.
Very useful as ever ā thanks, Mark.
Minor typos as requested:
Ziplinks page:
- āThe each item in theāā¦ should be Each itemā¦
- Locale based sorting para, sentence beginning with bear needs a capital B.
Links panel:
- āThe latter are notes to which Tinderbox assesses the use might usefully create new links. At present, areā ā I think that should be āuserā, not āuseā, and is there a word (ātheseā?) missing after 'present,?"
Those are the only ones which stood out.
Thanks again!
Many thanks. Fixed pages and TBX now online.
So, lots more for others to find then. Still happy to hear of errors. If I can find them I can fix them!
Perhaps itās because of the example phrase āsee this,ā but I assumed adding text to the target not would link back. Does it not? (Unsure Iād want this feature, but I assumed it would, so making sure.)
Links in Tinderbox are, for now, one way. Back linking would reuire creating two link, one each way. Itās not that it canāt be done, but Iāve seen nothing saying that this was a feature, or even expectation. To clarifyā¦
Adding a zip links creates an untitled text link using the target noteās name (the first by$OutlineOrder if not a unique name). Extra complications now allowed:
- Creating a new note if there is no $Name match.
- Specifying the path to the target/new note.
- Specifying the anchor text in the source noteās $Text for the new link.
- Specifying text to be added as the $text of a new note or added to the end of existing $Text.
Reflecting that these are an update to older āquickā links, I think it is worth managing expectations. At this point, I believe the quickness refers to being able to make a link just via typing and a bit of keyboard-based navigation. I think in some cases this has been over-assumed to every facet of more complex link configuration from the keyboard.
Iāve edited the aTbRef Ziplinks article so the offending āsee thisā example text is gone. In truth, I just took copy from the release notes and hadnāt assumed extra un-described functionality.
If my aTbRef notes are confusing or under/over precise do please say. My notes are far more detailed than the design notes on which they are based and Iāve tried to catch all (most?) āwhat-if?ā edge cases. Making additional links is one I certainly missed as no Tinderbox function does this (apart from the old footnotes feature that no one seems to use any more).
Thanks, @mwra. I found the documentation helpful and inspiring. At times as I read it, I even said things aloud like āooh!ā and my partner across the room thought Iād found some new juicy meme or COVID update. Thankfully, she wasnāt too disappointed since sheās a TB user, too. 
Eastgate have confirmed the the ziplink limit for supplied target text note is 50 characters, so Iāve updated me ziplinks article accordingly. Eastgate have also confirmed this limit will rise (soon!).
Actually, I think that may 50 characters for the whole typed string, not just the text. Anyway, this will soon be moot, as the limit will change.
I ran into this and now I know why, thanks!
Not sure whether this seems worth adding to the Ziplinks page (it may be self-evident)
but in addition to [[./ (shows a list of all siblings of this note)
there is also:
[[../ (shows the parent of this note and all the parentās siblings)
Done.
