In related news, I just discovered (today in fact) a real-life Adobe DreamWeaver alternative that DOESN'T SUCK! And for the most part, it's completely free, unless you want the Pro version which costs a whopping $59: http://www.evrsoft.com http://www.evrsoft.com I dunno. I feel like dancing on my dining room table with a lampshade on my head, I'm so freakin' happy. Except I don't have a dining room table, so that takes care of that. P.S. I have absolutely nothing to do with Evrsoft. I only heard of them today. The software is great, so I thought I'd pass along the good news.

>I only heard of them today. The software is great, so I thought I'd pass along the good news. Use it for a couple of weeks and then post us a review. Personally (and I've developed using about 20 different apps/environments) I feel you need to have done a whole project on it to really know if it's any good. Tagged for a closer look. Currently I'm using Quanta+ and am exited that a GSoC dev has stepped in to push it into KDE4 proper (trials of Kdevelop halted for now).

  I've used DreamWeaver exclusively for about a decade (way back when Macromedia was the shiznit), mostly for static HTML/CSS projects. Then recently, my main PC died, and with it my last Adobe Creative Suite 5 licence (I couldn't get back into the drive and deactivate the licence on that computer). That sent me on an epic voyage for a dreamweaver alternative, and I've been disappointed by the half dozen or so open source alternatives. Yeah, I've only kicked the tires on Evrsoft, but it seems sturdy enough for what I'll use it for. Let's face it, things are moving away from static HTML to online CMS platforms like Drupal and Wordpress. I'm not crazy about forking over hundreds of dollars for a) software that's already paid for and b) software I am needing less and less.

    Afterthought: I've used NVU years ago when I ran RedHat, and it wasn't terrible. Still isn't.
