Don't really need a site manager, but I'd take one if it's included.

Nah, vim is a command line text editor. It's powerful once you learn
how to use it though. Much better than *cough* emacs *cough*

I think it was using vim that gave you that nasty cough...

he's after an editor, not a whole operating system :)

(i'm pro vim, anti-emacs : in case any-one was confused)

Some sort of revision/versioning system might be useful, too, but
that could be overkill (RCS/CVS/SVN/the other one - Bazar, is it?/&c)

On a side-note, if you ~are~ going to use vim, make sure you install/use
vim-full, not vim-tiny. First thing i do on a new box: install vim-full
(then an export EDITOR)

Would you care to expand on the differences between vim-tiny and
vim-full for those of us who are uninitiated?
I assume I have vim-tiny and it's done everything I have required so
far, but I like the full sound of vim-full :).

Key-mappings &c, there used to be a bug on launchpad for it, but I'm not
tracking that one -- silly me.

Are you looking for a text based html editor? If that's the case there
is always,

vi
emacs

If you want a GUI text editor there is:

gedit

Or if your talking about a WYSIWYG editor there is:

Kompozer

scream

quanta

bluefish

I was looking for something to work both as wysiwyg and text editor. I
like switching back and forth depending on the job. I've been using
text editors, Dreamweaver, NVU, Kompozer. It always seems that I start
off in wysiwyg and inevitibly have to switch to text mode to correct
code. NVU doesn't put you in the same place when you switch to code
view. I always have to find my place. Dreamweaver was real good about
that. I haven't found anything that works like that for linux, yet. I
know there is one, though. Somewhere. I see I have some testing ahead
of me.

Never tried Dreamweaver, but in either Windoze or Linux I've always returned to Arachnophilia. It's a Java app so it works the same in all environments (assuming you have Java installed). It may be worth a look. Other than that I've not made my mind up between Quanta & Bluefish.

I had never seen nor heard of Arachnophilia until I saw your message.
I googled it.
Then I downloaded the Arachnophilia jar.
Then I ran the jar from terminal.
Then I used Arachnophilia to write a shell script to put in my path
(/usr/local/bin)
Then I used Arachnophilia to edit my fluxbox menu to include the
shellscript in my applications menu.
Then I closed Arachnophilia.
Then I started Arachnophilia from my fluxbox menu, and wrote this note,
using Arachnophilia.
All this occured within the last 5 minutes.
Arachnophilia is pretty useful.
It works GreaT!
Perhaps I should include that in Linguas OS.

It's pretty easy to install, that's for sure.

Yep. I've used it for text, html, javascript, BASH and python
scripting. My success varied with my skills in each language (except
text). Unfortunately, none of those skills are exceptional but at least
what little ability I have wasn't hampered by the editor. It DOES work
great!

I can't see a problem with that. A quick note to the author should
be all that's needed, I doubt he'll object.

Good luck with it

You define your best, I mean there are a plenty of editors in Ubuntu
repository but still you have to try them and see which would suit you
better.

I prefer going with vim or Amaya which was built by W3C.

Bluefish for a very advanced text editor.

http://bluefish.openoffice.nl/

I've never tried WYSIWYG with it. I think my friend said he used
the editor in the free-software mozilla suite, Sea Monkey

http://www.seamonkey-project.org/

the two that i use are:
for WYSIWYG editors - Kompozer
for Textual editors - Gedit / scream html editor


i perfer to take the technical way out and use gedit and just code my
site, but at my school i attend, we often use kompozer to build our
websites

I've been using Kompozer for a while. One thing that keeps nagging me
about it is that it does not keep your place in the code or wywiwyg
screens when swtching between the two views. I don't believe I'm a good
enough to try fixing the source, so I just have to live with it. It's
the closest thing to Dreamweaver I've found, yet.
