NVU Web Authoring System v0.70
Overview :
Finally! A complete Web Authoring System for Linux Desktop users to
rival programs like FrontPage and Dreamweaver. Nvu (pronounced N-view,
for a "new view") makes managing a web site a snap. Now anyone can
create web pages and manage a website with no technical expertise or
knowledge of HTML. Features: WYSIWYG editing of pages, making web
creation as easy as typing a letter with your word processor.
Integrated file management via FTP. Simply login to your web site and
navigate through your files, editing web pages on the fly, directly
from your site. Reliable HTML code creation that will work with all of
today's most popular browsers. Jump between WYSIWYG Editing Mode and
HTML using tabs. Tabbed editing to make working on multiple pages a
snap. Powerful support for frames, forms, tables, and templates.
What's New:
* Nvu is now based on Firefox 1.0 codebase! Many thanks to Benjamin
Smedberg for his crucial help.
* As a side-effect of the above, the Extensions and Themes managers
now work correctly. A few extensions are available from there.
Developers willing to create new extensions or themes for Nvu need its
application ID.
* Help menu entries now correctly launch the browser on Linspire.
If it does not, you miss the file /usr/lib/mozilla/mozilla-ext.
* Linspire, Fedora2/KDE and Windows versions now all display icons
for files and dirs in the site manager (thanks Michael Pyne for help on
KDE/Qt)
* The character set can be changed on the fly and chosen by default
in the preferences.
* ™ character added to the Insert Special Characters dialog.
* PHP processing instructions were incorrectly serialized with a
leading >?php, this is now fixed
* Publishing a document was firing an alert, it's now gone.
* The Inline Spell Checker is turned OFF by default because it
drastically impacts performance when you save a loooong document or
switch back from source to normal view.
* Source view enhanced to prepare line numbering (should be
available in 0.80)
* On some linux platforms, the Site Manager's sidebar was empty on
first launch. Closing and relaunching Nvu made it appear again
normally. This is now fixed.
* Context-click on the last tab to close it left the tabeditor
grey, this is now fixed
* Editing the source view and switching back does not double the
contents of the document any longer
* Progress on non-localizable strings although it's still a work in
progress (thanks to Flore and Bob for the list)
* Localization uses the composer/locales directory.
* oh, and of course, nvu -edit now launches the app AND opens the
requested document Please don't forget /home/glazman/foo.html and
C:\home\glazman\foo.html are not URLs... file:///home/glazman/foo.html
is a URL...
