I'm trying to find a web authoring application. I searched through Arch's packages and found Amaya and Screem. First I tried Amaya - it wouldn't run, but this appears to be a known bug, to do with THITDIR. I then tried Screem. It too wouldn't run. The error message said it couldn't locate a file and that I should restart 'gconfd'. I did so, but still no joy. So my question to you all is what do I need to do to get Screem working, and/or what else is out there that I could use?
thanks in advance for all suggestions.

look around here... if there's anything you like, but don't know how to install I can make an arch package for you...
you can always just use something like kwrite/gedit/leafpad

You could try nvu (WYSIWYG), but I suppose it's somewhat tricky to get it running on arch (you could search for some PKGBUILDs in the forum). And there's Quanta, a really nice piece of work, in the kdewebdev package. But, well, it needs kdelibs. Bluefish (gtk) is another option.
Hope that helps.
Cheers,

nvu looks good. I'll do as you say and look for some PKGBUILDS.
Phracture, is there any chance that you could make a pacman package for nvu? Here's hoping.
thanks

hmmmm, try this:
http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php? … hlight=nvu
i'll update the version to 0.6 and post the pkgbuild here
EDIT: ack, build instructions changed... here's the working version
# Contributor: dpb <dpb[at]backarrow.org>
pkgname=nvu
pkgver=0.60
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="A complete Web Authoring System for Linux Desktop users as well as Microsoft Windows users to rival programs like FrontPage and Dreamweaver."
depends=('gtk2' 'libidl2' 'gcc')
makedepends=('zip')
url=('http://www.nvu.com/')
source=(http://www.nvu.com/download/$pkgname-$pkgver-source.tar.bz2)
build()
{
cd $startdir/src/mozilla
sed "s@#CFLAGS#@$CFLAGS@g" mozconfig.linux >.mozconfig
make -f client.mk build || return 1
mkdir -p $startdir/pkg/usr/bin $startdir/pkg/opt/nvu
make DESTDIR=$startdir/pkg install
ln -s $startdir/pkg/opt/nvu/bin/nvu $startdir/pkg/usr/bin/
}

Dunno about the build process itself (whether it works or not), but the proper source seems to be 'http://cvs.nvu.com/download/$pkgname-$p … es.tar.bz2'.

bluefish is a nice little app if you can handle straight scripting (ie no wysiwyg).

Thanks to Phracture's PKGBUILD I now have NVU up and running (but with a lfew problems, which I'll post later). One quick question though - how do I go about finding the 'NVU' icon so that I can assocaite it with the desktop launcher I've created? I know there *is* one because itappears in the ALT+TAB window when I'm swapping bewteen running programs. But I searched the entire root directory for nvu.png, and no joy. I guess it must have a different name (or extension perhaps?) so is there a way to browse images (sought of 'thumbnails' equvalent?)
Thanks for all the help so far.
[UPDATE - searched around and found it as an *.xpm file]
