Looks like I was speaking out of turn here - I did not know about WebDAV when I wrote this :-( Richard

All the mentioned supported systems use text files for their sources.
Not that interfacing such a tool is impossible. Someone recently posted a system to let a particular editor work with the Zope content. Right now, as far as I know, the only way in is through the web interface, so anything that is designed to work with directly accessible disk files will need some glue code to make it work.

From what I understand, the WebDAV support in Zope is broken/extremely limited...
Can anyone flesh out this broad generalisation? ;-) Chris

DC has tried hard to get WebDAV support to work cleanly. If there are still bugs in it, please submit them (with lots of details!!) to the Collector. Shane @ digicool.com

To be honest, I think I last played with it in 2.1.3, so I'm guessing I can actually upload and download objects/files with it now? What other cool stuff can WebDAV do? cheers, Chris PS: I just tried this with IE5's 'Open as Web Folder' (which is WebDav, I think...) I could upload files, but they appear as file objects only. How would I upload a DTML Document/Method? Even more cool, how could I upload an arbitary object stroed locally in, say, XML? (ignoring the huge security risk that would expose ;-) Problems I had: I couldn't download *anything*, just got a message saying an error occured while trying. Actually, sorry, I lied, I can download objects which have extensions (I tried a .gif and that worked...) but that's not entirely helpful... Mayeb I'm just misunderstandign what WebDAV is supposed to do?!
