Each input title is processed in turn. The value of field <<.place F>> in the corresponding tiddler is examined.

:As long as the field's value has not been encountered before, the title is appended to the output.

:The value is treated as a [[title list|Title List]]. Each title in the list considered in turn. If it has not been encountered before, it is appended to the output.
