Re: bluefish question
I used bluefish a few years ago, then went to quanta and finally settled on (/usr/ports/www/kompozer) Kompozer. Kompozer is an udate to nvu (which was the composer module in Mozilla) as a standalone application. It still produces source code with some Netscapeisms, but it isn't anything that isn't easily cleaned up (when necessary --like to produce html e-mail) in an editor like kate, or kedit.

If I click on the LEFT icon, it tries to print an HR bar, center, left, right. (Or, more correctly, it prints the markup that will yield a horizontal line.)

Tim Guys, thanks for your help. I already managed to put in by vi (and .) the 45 or so div align=left and /div. Still wonder what's wrong with bluefish, but glad there are others. There are a bunch of font things to add to my prototype HTML/PHP file, so lots to play with. gary ps: to bore you with yet-another-FWIW: this is v2 of my jottings stuff :-) -- In friendship, prad ... with you on your journey Towards Freedom http://www.towardsfreedom.com (website) Information, Inspiration, Imagination - truly a site for soaring I's ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Gary Kline [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.thought.org Public Service Unix http://jottings.thought.org http://transfinite.thought.org ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hey Gary,
it's now called nvu, though it's been stuck in 1.0 land for as long as I
remember.
$ pkg_info -o linux-nvu*
Information for linux-nvu-1.0:
Origin:
www/linux-nvu
I've been using it on and off, lately just using Eclipse since i spend quite a
bit of time in it anyway.
