[Zope] wysiwyg editor

[Sebastian Kügler]

According to the specs, this java applet does not require a plugin. It can
be used as a signed applet and unsigned. (The difference between these two
modes is explained on the website of realobject or in the manual.)

Edit-on uses only some simple javascript in order to interact with the html
form it is used in. It is also cross browser compatible.

This might be great.
But the required plug-in crashes my IE.

I am new to Zope, but would join anyone that wants to develop a WYSIWYG HTML
Editor for Zope as a product (sans plug-in).  They seem to be javascript
heavy.  is there an alternative?

CMF supposedly includes one.
Can this be used without CMF easily?
