I don't know if this is something that others would find useful but I thought I'd suggest it anyhow.

It would be cool if there was a macro that allowed you to define which Anki note-type you want to sync to, and then accepted parameters for whatever fields you want.

So for example say I have a note-type in Anki called "Book" with the fields "title", "author" and "year", it might look something like this:

<<remembercustom "20200731024148369"
  note-type:"Book"
  title:"The Hobbit"
  author:"Tolkien"
  year:"1937"
>>

Thanks for the great plugin!

I would like to support more note types in the future. That said, it gets tricky since you'd have to rely on the note type being present in the person's Anki collection and defined correctly, with specific fields created on the note type, etc., so it would definitely be an advanced feature prone to various user errors. Currently TiddlyRemember is able to take care of the defined note types itself and create them if they don't exist.

I am not sure whether it's possible to have a TiddlyWiki macro that takes arbitrary parameters like in your example, but certainly some format could be devised at any rate.
