The poor guy asked for a tool that create web pages, not names of frameworks that are used to write web application. I am also a firm believer that "hand written" stuff is good for many situations. The browser based front-end of our virtualization management system is written in Python/TG. There is no DW involved anywhere. There are businesses out there that I know are making a lot of money just by making static web sites for customers. Due to the heavy competition, they need to be quick and cheap. There are certain tools that help create good looking, static web sites quickly and easily. And DW is one such tools. If Ravi had asked for an alternate to ASP, most of the conversation in this mail chain would have been valid. However, as a matter of fact, he *is* asking for an alternative to DW. Taking into account what DW does, if anyone can suggest an alternate tool that helps create static web pages visually, it would have helped our man. This thread has however been a lot of fun with Ken pitching in some jokes. Now my turn for suggestions. Ravi, dude, use Emacs.

The point is, that the nix philosophy being what it is, there are very often no tools that give an exact alternative to the proprietary tool. There are a large many projects that attempt to clone the proprietary tool, but as far as I can see, in all those attempts the clone is far below the original in quality. Some examples: OO word and doze word vb dot net and mono vb and gambas success stories are where cloning is not attempted and the nix tool develops in it's own way. Examples: Gimp and Photoshop Blender and Maya So, if you want something like dreamweaver, spend the 600USD and get and use dreamweaver. -- regards kg http://lawgon.livejournal.com http://nrcfosshelpline.in/code/ ___ To unsubscribe, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe " in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc

The UNIX philosophy is several things. And several parts that make up a whole. But I am yet to see the UNIX philosophy being applied to GUI effectively. It is applied programatically and internally. GStreamer comes to mind. As far as a simple user of the GUI is concerned, I am unable to visualize how a user can apply the UNIX way of doing things and still remain sane. There are several powerful GUI applications available today. OOo, Firefox, etc. They run fine on UNIX, but where is the UNIX way of doing things when you are using these apps? We are talking about the differences between a user who want to use a simple GUI application and a pipes happy developer. I'm sure there is a difference. With Linux going mainstream, there will be more and more users who will just want to applications running on Linux(they actually won't care if it is FreeBSD) without worrying about the UNIX way of doing things. The first things they are going to be looking for is alternatives to Windows based software. They won't give a damn about the UNIX way of doing things. -- Shuveb Hussain B I N A R Y K A R M A Chennai, India.

(but other connections > like ssh & vnc are working fine..) Good work on setting up samba. Strange that your samba shares are slower than windows. Are you using Vista+SP1 or XP+SP2? I have seen a report that one needs the latest samba version for vista+sp1 because M$ introduced some new functionality for file sharing methods (sorry don't know the details). You may have to do some performance tweaking. Personally, I have not touched samba for > 1 year so cannot help you with specifics. > Any solutions for this?

[Ilugc] [Photos] SLC, Andhra Pradesh, FSF-AP
Hi, I conducted a "Debian GNU/Linux Installation" session as part of the first day of the 15-day Industry oriented summer school program, conducted by FSF-AP chapter, today, May 16, 2008, at Satyam Learning Centre Institute of Engineering and Technology, Piglipur village, Hayath Nagar, Andhra Pradesh (few kilometers past Ramoji Film City). The photos are available at: http://www.shakthimaan.com/Mambo/gallery/album44 I would like to thank FSF-AP for the arrangements. Due to official work, I was able to spend only one day. This program is conducted in parallel in three other colleges outside of Hyderabad. In the evening, they provide training on team-building, communication skills, personality development, and other soft skills. Please check http://swecha.org/ for more details. Students were mostly from Andhra Pradesh, and few from Tamil Nadu. The INR 1500 cost for the program is inclusive of stay, food, and training (lectures, and lab-usage) for the 15 days. Most of organizers are volunteers - students, academicians or people working in the Industry in Hyderabad. They also meet during the weekends at: FSF India A.P Chapter, Flat No.201, Karan Apartments, (exactly opposite to petrol bunk) Paradise, Secunderabad. Landmark: Beside Sandarshini hotel.
