1. Create a formtool called ./packages/formtools/richtext.cfc and add it to a 
plugin or your project.  You can use the core richtext.cfc as a template.  The 
FarCry integration is very easy -- though your actual implementation difficulty 
is going to depend on the editor in question.

2. this would depend on the rich text editor and what integration options it 
has.  We've done this integration for tinyMCE's plugin architecture -- your 
mileage will vary with other solutions.

The XStandard plugin is available.  It has not been upgraded for use with 
FarCry 6.0.  We currently have no plans to provide support for 6.0 -- though as 
always that may change if we have a commercial sponsor for the integration.  I 
know that there are some members of the community (IDL in Norway) at work on a 
CKEditor implementation, though i'm not sure what timetable they have for 
release.

By the way, what issues are you experiencing with the tinyMCE solution?
