Nvu ... nvu.com WYSIWYG HTML editor

beniro · 2004-03-13 01:05:27

I know its only v0.17, but ...Is this anywhere? I need this package and cant get it to work with my meager knowledge of ABS.

Is anyone willing to get this one?

if you 're very in a hurry try peacock [there is already a package]

cause as the nvu site states:

If your distribution is built with GCC 3.3 this version may not work for you. If it does, please let us know.

so with 3.3 it is not expected to compile..
so be patient again, until they get it to work [I'll try though]

I see...Peacock? I've never heard of it...I'll check it out, though... Thanks!

well but don't open a page that you have written already, because peacock is not ready yet, and will simplify your page's html code.
if I were you, I would try quanta (qt) or screem (gtk) or bluefish(gtk) [these are not WYSIWYG editors but help very much] and would also work on the same time with peacock and/or mozilla composer

The new quanta does do WYSIWYG.

I tried peacock...and quickly moved on. I mostly use the wysiwy to simplify formatting, etc. but peacock didn't make it easier...I'm installing quanta right now, though. And bluefish, which I had completely forgotten about. Very useful... Thanks!

Newsforge has a first look at Nvu, actually a comparison to frontpage, it sounds like it still needs work, but ought to be interesting checking out in the future.

Any chance someone could update this for version 0.5

z4ziggy · 2004-11-23 20:07:16

i've tried nvu sometime ago, but couldnt get quite the results i wanted. then i started using quanta, and never looked back... excellent html ide with lots of usefull functions (wysiwyg ofcourse), u should be fine.

phrakture · 2004-11-23 22:09:49

celeron2002 · 2004-11-23 22:23:40

[OOPS, THIS SHOULD BE IN THREAD 'AMAYA, SCREEM AND WEB AUTHORING APPS - MODERATOR PLEASE MOVE? THANKS!]

Well, thanks to Phracture's PKGBUILD for 'nvu' I've now got nvu up and running. This was the first time I've built a package frome source and installed it with pacman. I don't think I quite got it right because during the make process it first failed because it it couldn't find /home/glazman/nvu-0.50/
I made the directory, 'makepkg' worked and then I used pacman to install nvu (from the tarball in /var/abs/loca/nvu). However, runnig 'nvu' didn't work becasue the link put in /usr/bin/ for nvu was pointing to some file /var/abs/local/pkg/opt/nvu/bin/nvu which didn't exist.
So I hunted around and foud a working executable in /home/glazman/nvu-0.50/dist/bin

Any thoughts? I guess for now I can just edit the link in /usr/bin to point to where I found the working binary?
