! Notes
One trap to be aware of is that the edit text widget cannot be used to edit a field of the tiddler that contains it. Each keypress results in the tiddler being re-rendered, which loses the cursor position within the text field.
Instead, place the edit text widget in a [[template|TiddlerTemplates]] that references the tiddler you want to modify.
For example, if you wanted to edit the value of the "myconfig" field of the tiddler "AppSettings", you might do so by creating a separate tiddler "ChangeAppSettings" that contains the following:
```
<$edit-text tiddler="AppSettings" field="myconfig"/>
```
