Klient: the built in one for winNT/win2000/winXP works good enough. Remeber
to start zope with option: -W [portnumber]
and connect with webdav this way:
http://zopeserver.com:[portnumber]/folder
and NOT the standard portnumber 8080
With Windows: I have only tried Dreamweaver, but it works fine (as long as
you fiddle a littlte with something called "PUT_factory" (an external
method which auto-creates the object-types you want)).
also: Dreamweaver can not have filenames without ".html" or other filename
endings (stupid, stupid, stupid).
the locking-mechanism between dreamweaver and zope was not easy to figure
out, put eventually, that also works ok (you have to remember to check in
and out files).
I'm going to test Golive the next couple of weeks. It may prove a better
design-tool.
BTW: use zope templates and not dtml-methods/documents. I have not, and I
am starting to regret.
