It seems that
Blue Griffon is on the road of a succesfull WYSIWYG editor on Linux (available for other OS too). In May they released Version 1.0 and now 1.2.1 is available.
Version 1.2.1 is a bugfix release of 1.2 which ships with a lot of new features. Besides the open source main software they developed some
cheap, usefull, commercial addons too.
On my notebook i replaced now
Kompozer with Blue Griffon because it's lively developed and seems much more up-to-date.

With the release of the
development snapshot of version 2.29.3 gEdit is moving forward to 2.30 which will be released in April 2010.
Ignacio Casal Quinteiro wrote a
interesting post about auto completion features that will come. Jesse van den Kieboom shows in a
screencast amazing features of multiediting too.
Besides that two really nice plugins, that will improve your workflow with many files, are available at the
gEdit Plugins Page: Tabs Enhanced and TabSwitch. Both allowing you to configure the behavior of the file tabs like:
* using Ctrl+Tabulator key to switch through files
* Middle click on tabs for closing files
* Closing gEdit when any file tab is closed
* Do not show file tab bar when only one file is opened
UPDATE 09/12/08:Jesse van den Kieboom wrote an interesting
post about snippets handling too.

While there are no news updates since January of the
BlueGriffon WYSIWYG Webeditor project, the
Kompozer project is still alive and kicking. A 4th alpha (which runs pretty stable) of
Kompozer 0.8 is availabe for download. Kompozer 0.8 is focused on a new Mozilla core and the new UI displays more relevant information about the current HTML element: DOM tree, style properties, HTML code.
A lot of
localisations for Kompozer 0.8 are available too.
How to get Kompozer 0.8 running:* Make sure the package "xulrunner" is installed
* Download the Kompozer 0.8 binaries for Linux
* Extract the archive as root in "/opt/kompozer"
* Now create a new starter at your Gnome main menu or panel with command:
"/opt/kompozer/kompozer".

End of last year i reported about a new version of the font editor
FontForge that shipped with a X Resource editor to customize the (ugly) interface of FontForge. Now i started to create a smoother interface for Fontforge. Here is my first attempt:
If you know the ugly and fat look&feel of the standard interface you know that this first try is really smooth
You can
download the theme here. To use it with FontForge go into the preferences and select the "fontforge-theme-area42" file as a "ResourceFile" at the option set "Generic".

If you are missing features in Gimp and didn't like to pay a lot for Photoshop you should definitely tryout
Photoline. It's powerfull and stable as Photoshop itself, has the best PSD file support i ever saw and it is
really cheap.
The only bad thing is you need
Wine to get it running on Linux. At the moment i getting some problems with the icons of the toolbars and sometimes the cursor is not visible. I think this could be fixed soon when a new stable version of Wine is available.
All about Photoline 14.51 can be found in the
release notes.
UPDATE: I added a
bug report to the bugzilla of the Wine project.

I'm working on the next version of
SweeTS. This time i'm focused on new features like code operations (cleaning, formating etc.).
SweeTS is a development enviroment for TypoScript and a external TypoScript editor. TypoScript is the template language of the
content management system (CMS) TYPO3.
Another question is how to structure a better code explorer. About that i started
a poll at the Typo3 Forum.net.
