Three Linux HTML editors reviewed

April 23rd, 2008 by Baldy

Today’s Web development tools offer capabilities that go beyond basic HTML editing. I compared three Web editors for Linux — Screem 0.16.1, Bluefish 1.0.7, and Quanta Plus 3.5.7 — to determine how well they handle today’s Web editing needs.

The three programs are similar in many ways. All three are primarily code editors with syntax highlighting, smart indentation, and other features to make writing and editing code easier. Screem is tightly integrated with the GNOME desktop environment, while Bluefish will run on KDE and GNOME. Quanta Plus is a KDE application distributed with KDE. It has visual editing features (what you see is what you get — WYSIWYG) in addition to extensive code editing features. All three applications have features for working with HTML, JavaScript, Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), and other markup or scripting languages. Additionally, all three have features for managing Web sites and projects, including CVS support.

An Apple User Tries Ubuntu

April 23rd, 2008 by Baldy

I found this out cruising the web and thought that a few of you folks out there might like to read it also, Baldy.

’m an Apple user.
Long time, pure bred, never owned anything else. Oh sure, I’ve used
Windows machines, but it’s never crossed my mind to use one daily.

I mean, Windows? Like
most Apple users, the very idea makes me vaguely anxious. When you’re
an Apple user, you’re a snob. You feel – no, you know – that your OS is superior. The machines are fast and secure, and they’re gorgeous, too.

The Macintosh is, without a doubt, one of my favorite things.

(Of course, we Apple
users don’t admit that Macs can crash, too. And that Safari can’t
handle certain Web features, including plenty of videos. And that being
non-Windows in a Windows world is inconvenient. Still, those burdens
are worth bearing for a computer this cool.)

Microsoft finally ships Windows XP SP3

April 23rd, 2008 by LinuxChick

Microsoft finally ships Windows XP SP3 – and here’s how you can get it

Microsoft often simply seems to ignore XP, preferring instead to trumpet Vista – but it looks like Microsoft’s aged, and aging, operating system is wrapping up with the release of its certain-to-be-the-last service pack. Despite the focus on Vista, there have been a ton of questions about SP3. Fortunately, we have the answers, too.
