Favourite Editors

What editor do people use for their MuNu logs? For my old Blogger blog, I was using w.bloggar, though for some reason I can't get it to work with MuNu. What do other people recommend?

And by the way, Angry in the Great White North is officially an active MuNu blog as of today.

I use NotePad. Yeah, I know. It's really all I've ever needed though. I don't do anything more fancy than blockquotes and anchor tags.

Sadly enough if I'm doing something complicated, I use blogger, then cut and paste from the "show html" view....

I was poking around with BlogJet, but during the configuration it asked for the path to the mt-xmlrpc.cgi file, which I assume was defined during installation.

/MT_PATH/mt-xmlrpc.cgi

So what would that be?

I like Zempt 0.4. Except for a few odd kinks dealing with different characters in some links, it works well. When it refuses to publish, I just drag it into a new entry window in the MT console.

the path to the xml rpc should be http://blog.mu.nu/cgi/mt-xmlrpc.cgi

I use ECTO. Its a shareware program Windows and Mac Versions available. Best $18.00 software I ever bought.

You can build a library of custom tags and keyboard shortcuts. The preview is pretty accurate as well.

I only hope the Minx doesn't kill it!

I'm planning to build a two-way Blogger API module for Minx, so ECTO, w.bloggar and the like should all work.

Hey, I just thunk of something. Hmm. Okay, I'm going to move the Blogger API module forward and put it in place ASAP.

And yes, the path to the mt xml rpc cgi is indeed http://blog.mu.nu/cgi/mt-xmlrpc.cgi

I personally use PHPEdit, which is an awesome editor for PHP, HTML, CSS, ASP and much more. If you only use it for personal use, you can get a free personal license. If you want to use it commercially then you have to pay for it. This is not an editor for the faint of heart. It has no WYSIWYG features at all. It does, however, have every HTML, PHP and CSS tag in it, along with all possible attributes and great inline help. If you like getting that deep into the code, this is the way to go. It's smart enough to recognize inline transitions from HTML to PHP and back.

If I'm just writing a text post with a couple of links in it, I use notepad, easy as pie.

Harvey swears by Note Tab, but I'm with Pixy, I type into the little MT composition box. I save often (I have my default set to "draft") in case of browser lock-up, though...
