I hope this doesn't offend the people that have put so much work into Zope (which is an excellent product :), but the editor leaves much to be desired. Things such as; no search and replace, no syntax highlighting, search doesn't search arguments or properties etc. make it very frustrating to use Zope for sophisticated projects (Our corporate site has close to a thousand pages).

The question then is, what are other Zopesters doing?

For me, using a windows-machine, Allaire Homesite works nicely.. I access the zope-server (running Zserver on Linux) by FTP. I still have to use the web-interface a lot, but it makes work a lot easier.. Advertising a commercial product in an Open-source-community might possibly be stepping on someones toes, but i wouldnt do this unless asked explicitly. Color coding, search/replace etc all works like a dream, and it is somewhat extensible too, but i cannot seem to make it understand DTML... HS also saves DTML-methods as DTML-methods again, not as DTML-documents, as i've heard someone has been troubled with on emacs (correct me if wrong).. It is by all means no perfect tool, but it makes my day to day work a lot easier, but then again, i probably do to much dtml anyway as i don't know much python yet.. ------------------------------------------------ Geir B Hansen geirh@funcom.com Web-designer / Graphic artist Funcom Oslo http://www.funcom.com ------------------------------------------------
