Hi,
I was just idly surfing the internet and came across this page:
http://www.cmsreview.com/WYSIWYG/OpenSource/Directory.html
It's a list of Open Source WYSIWYG Through-The-Web Editors. Maybe one of
them can be used for PmWiki.
Here's a short write-up of those which may be useful and those which
probably aren't (+ for useful, o for don't know, - for unsuitable). I
have classified editors that have "too many" features as unsuitable;
throwing out stuff is usually far more difficult than adding stuff.
Aine anyHTML - IE only.
Bitflux o XML only.
CAMPFIRE - Needs Java plugin.
Cross-Browser Rich Text Editor o IE 5.5+ or Mozilla 1.3+.
o Just Rich Text.
Easy Web Editor - IE only.
Epoz - Zope only.
FCKEditor o XHTML only.
htmlArea o IE 5.5+ or Mozilla 1.3+.
o HTML only.
IE Editor for Zope - IE only. Zope only.
Kupu + Already integrates into several CMS.
o Claims clean architecture.
+ Has a plug-in architecture.
+ Favors CSS over HTML.
Midas - Mozilla only.
Mozile - Mozilla only.
Solmetra SPAW editor o HTML only.
o Mozilla support is still in beta.
+ Some customizability.
TinyMCE o HTML only.
+ Some customizability.
I took a look at Kupu (which seemed most promising given the blurbs). I
was disappointed since the demo didn't even nearly what we need, but
then I realized that it's internal (technical) qualities that count, not
pretty appearances. In other words, evaluating all these editors would
take some serious effort.
Regards,
Jo
