I am doing quite a bit of web stuff now, but up until now have been doing it through an xterm->telnet to web server->joe, black on white. I tried BlueFish, but the preview in netscape button caused it to crash.
I would not mind something that could: 1. Gives color coding 2. Be good for perl AND html AND cgi AND javascript (I doubt I'll get all 4) 3. Let me save to a web server. 4. The only time I save stuff locally is for graphics, which I upload via ftp. Is there something that will do most of this? the color coding would be nice. ----------------- On 21-Jul-99 Sean wrote: > I don't know what features BBEdit has, but when I'm doing HTML stuff in X I > like to > use WebMaker as an editor.
