Re: [Radiant] Editing Styles in Radiant CMS
I'm using the 'It's All Text!' Firefox extension, which you'll find here: https://addons.mozilla.org/el/firefox/addon/4125?lang=de I configured Command-E as shortcut to start editing a textarea and configured Textmate as editor. Whenever I edit some content Textmate will be opened, and Command-S will write back the changed to the textarea. This allows comfortable editing but the workflow is not the best if you have to edit a lot. I planned to have a closer look at the dav extension, this would enable content editing in the database like a local project. But I haven't had time to test it.

Re: [Radiant] Editing Styles in Radiant CMS
+1 for Its All Text! Textmate. Thanks for the reminder about the short cut; I hate looking for that little icon. I suppose, though, if you wanted a real IDE, one could write an Eclipse extension...

Re: [Radiant] Editing Styles in Radiant CMS
The DAV extension (http://github.com/willcodeforfoo/radiant-dav-extension/tree/master ) would allow us to edit the content in any IDE or editor, not just Eclipse. The code in the extension isn't complicated and the TODO file lists: * Authentication * Figure out why you get the directory inside of the directory * Page hierarchy So I guess there won't be much work to make the extension usable for my need. I planned to modify that extension within the next weeks and add those features, since I think it will boost the productivity of our team.

Are you editing the same layout that your pages are using? Can you use a text editor to directly edit the files instead of using the browser interface? This would be a boon to productivity. Where are these files located in the file-system? Radiant stores all of your 'files' in the database, so you won't find them on your file-system. However, if you install the file_system extension[1] it adds features for dumping all pages, snippets and layouts on your file-system. You can edit these with your usual text editor, then run a rake task which copies everything from the file system back into your database.
