 The CurrentTiddler is the current tiddler during WikiText processing. A context tiddler is set by the TiddlerWidget. It allows you to write references like `<$view field="title" format="link"/>` in TemplateTiddlers without explicitly specifying the tiddler that it applies to.
+
+The title of the current tiddler is contained in the widget variable ''currentTiddler''.

+! CSS Class Variables
+
+The tiddler widget assigns several useful CSS classes to variables that it creates:
+
+* ''missingTiddlerClass'': ''"tw-tiddler-exists"'' or ''"tw-tiddler-missing"'' depending upon whether the target tiddler exists
+* ''shadowTiddlerClass'': ''"tw-tiddler-shadow"'' if the tiddler is a shadow tiddler
+* ''systemTiddlerClass'': ''"tw-tiddler-system"'' if the tiddler is a system tiddler
+* ''tiddlerTagClasses'': A space separated list of CSS classes named ''"tw-tagged-{tagname}"''. For example ''"tw-tagged-introduction"''. Note that tag names are UrlEncoded which means that the tag ''$:/tags/Macro'' appears as the CSS class ''"tw-tagged-%24%3A%2Ftags%2FMacro"''
+
+You can use these variables like this:
+
+```
+<$tiddler tiddler="MyOtherTiddler">
+<div class=<<missingTiddlerClass>>>
+<$transclude/>
+</$tiddler>
+```
