Re: How to edit config files in root folder?

[Miers David]

congrats…cool green drool and slobber…happy now? lol

I had occasion to chase a similar bird at /private/etc/hosts

terminal gave me nothing…it occurred to me that I’d never installed command 
line tools, interesting note in the dialog that followed the word helper 
installed happened along with some other stuff…kind of a match for you maybe

After that everything worked a treat no muss no fuss. Didn’t use sudu…admin 
password asked and given..business as usual

Re: Creating a new site in BBEdit

[Miers David]

The site root can actually be anywhere. Mamps preferences under apache allow 
you to define the site root location. htdocs is just the default, but I change 
this sometimes several times a day as if you use relative to root link the 
server must be targeting the root of that particular site, not just a folder 
where you might have many sites

Re: Large copy-paste from Excel

[Miers David]

text editor to spreadsheet is usually done with CSV(comma separated value) or 
tab separated value(which I've never used) However going back and forth with 
CSV has been trouble free for me. I believe you will find that any spreadsheet 
app will have a CSV export option and for a text editor it is simply a matter 
of putting the correct extension on the file as well as maintaining the correct 
formatting.

Re: Coda 2 is nice, but no match for BBEdit

[Miers David]

It sounds to me like folks have things kitty wompus on this thread. Version 10 
has a dropdown called "setup" within which you set up sites and ftp. Version 9 
accessed this totally differently through the preferences menu which version 10 
no longer does. It's just UI changesit's in there.

Re: Smashwords - any authors using BBE?

[Miers David]

Not a much of a writer myself, but I've read accounts of writers that find 
BBedit and text editors to be a plus for them. Reasoning behind this was the 
ability to focus on your copy rather then format. Separating the 2 jobs was 
considered good for keeping the mind focused.

Pages will usually do a sufficient job of exporting a word doc as one option 
and has the ability to be a layout tool...sort of a mini indesign if you will. 
This word cannot do to the best of my knowledge. Question buzzes about on how 
the layout version of pages actually works out in word though...h.

Heres a crazy thoughtjust take the text from bbedit directly into indesign 
or the professional layout tool of choice and be done with the tweener MS word.

No MS on your mac...good on ya..this way you don't need a priest for an 
exorcism!

Seems like using accented characters is akin to using spaces in file names, 
something you just shouldn't do...I'd just rename the images
