Python for web editor?
Even if it's intereting we went away from the end user and into the developer space. In theory Basic interface can be used to use Java. But the problem is that if we want to put every single application we end up with a 3GB program. I think the future is more about componetize and break up the modules. At least the URE is already away from the OOo program. On Tue, 20 Sep 2005 13:59:37 +0100, Colin J. Williams <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

I'll file an official request. Most open source WYSIWYG HTML editors are rather simple ones however designed to allow someone online to edit a page. I was hoping to see a Frontpage replacement, especially since Frontpage uses proprietary extensions for its "widgets and gadgets". A script wizard that helped you put together simple tools for your website using say PHP or CGI would be far more useful and less proprietary. Frontpage also doesn't do much necessarily to support developing with CSS.

This is a bit like guilding the lily. OOo is already a humongous package.

If this is done, I suggest that other languages than HTML be included, eg. Python.

Neil Hodson's Scintilla is an excellent multi-programming language multi-os open source package: http://www.scintilla.org/

Alexandro,

I agree with your comments about the probable desirability of modularizing OOo.

Python is used for writing macros and thus my suggestion that, if the editor is to allow for the syntax of HTML, consideration should also be given to Python. I understand that Python is also used in the context of GCI.

Scintilla handles both HTML and Python (and many other languages).

Then again, there is different ways of supporting python for example using mod_python would be a different way than php-python or cgi. So is not the same support for every python too. Versions matter a lot more in python.
