Hi John,

There's a recent bit on the TW site (copied below) about saving with
Opera. Don't know if it works.

TiddlySaver
JeremyRuston, 3 November 2006 (created 21 August 2006)

The TiddlySaver Java applet allows TiddlyWiki from a file:// URL to
save changes Safari, Opera and other browsers.

It is a small file named "TiddlySaver.jar" that must be placed in the
same directory as your TiddlyWiki file. Before you can use it, you
need to give it the necessary privileges by editting
your .java.policy file.

For Windows, the file will be at C:\Documents and
Settings\your-user-name\.java.policy. Add the following lines
(substituting the directory of your TiddlyWiki file as appropriate):

grant codeBase "file:${user.home}/My Documents/tiddlywiki-folder/*" {
permission java.io.FilePermission "${user.home}${/}My
Documents${/}tiddlywiki-folder${/}*", "read,write";
};

On Mac OS X, the file is found at /Users/your-user-name/.java.policy:

grant codeBase "file:${user.home}/Documents/tiddlywiki-folder/*" {
permission
java.io.FilePermission "${user.home}${/}Documents${/}tiddlywiki-folder${/}*", "read,write";
};

It can be tricky creating files whose name starts with a period, so
you can use this pre-built .java.policy file. The same file is
suitable for Macs too, just edit it and delete the "My " bit, leaving
just "Documents". Make sure you save it in the right place for each
operating system!

Note that there is currently a bug that prevents TiddlySaver from
working if you have specified a backup directory in AdvancedOptions.
