Happy coding!

...
In March this year i wrote a short post about
dummy content creation. There i presented
James Halesthe's Lorem Ipsum Generator. It is now update to version 0.2 and shipped with new features and a better workflow (thanks for the copy & exit button).
LIG works perfect as an external tool for gEdit too:

I updated all my gEdit plugins to be completely localized in german or english. I added version numbers for all too, so you can easy check in the preferences which version you are using.

Again i updated my gEdit Language Reference plugin.
Version 1.03 contains:
* a bug fix for the "None Type" problem (no programming language is set)
* When opening Evince starting automaticly a search with the selected word of gEdit
* Error dialogs for problems getting the reference file
(dialogs based on Zenity)
Thanx to Curtis Hovey helping me with the selection stuff in gEdit. Thanx to the Evince team for adding the requested search word command line parameter. Hopefully Yelp, GnoCHM or web browsers will add such command line features in future. So i can add this feature for CHM, DocBook and HTML documents too.
UPDATE:Now version 1.04 is online which ships a complete with localisation in german and english.

gedit, external, compare, files
...
At the moment i'm heavily on scripting various things and some times its needed to compare files. As a Winy i used
PSPad which have an included comparsion tool. Now i'm on Linux using gEdit and i'd like to have such a nice workflow once i had using PSPad.
I found a very nice way using
Meld. Meld is a graphical comparsion tool and will work very well as an external tool of gEdit:
1) Install the package "meld"
2) Start gEdit and opening the Menu "Tools > External Tools..."
3) Add a new external tool:
* Name: Compare Files
* Description: Compare then opened file with another
* Command:
#!/bin/sh
meld $GEDIT_CURRENT_DOCUMENT_DIR/$GEDIT_CURRENT_DOCUMENT_NAME `zenity --file-selection --title=File for comparsion --filename=/home/` &
* Any othe roption is not interesting so press close
4) Now you have in "Tools" an menu entry "Compare Files" that will use the active document of gEdit and the other browsed file for comparsion
Happy computing

After my talk "Website Requirements Today" at the
TYPO3 Security Day here in Berlin is over its time for me to relax a little bit. Then i will start update/ finish a lot of my scripts (
Nautilus Thumbnailer,
gEdit Language Reference plugin) and my new one
Supor Killor.
At
area42 we started to complete a new version of the
BS Exporter for Blender X3D/VRML. This version will add amazing new features and will support the new partcile engine of
Blender 2.46 too.

I updated my gEdit "Browser Preview" plugin, some bug fixes and feature enhancements:
* the plugin now checks first if IEs4Linux is installed, if not it tries to start the Internet Explorer 6 from the default Wine directory
* for testing webpages on the Webkit browser engine the plugin checks if
Midori is installed if not it tries to run Konquerer
* if you opened a HTML document from a FTP server the "ftp://" will replaced by "http://" in the browser

tyclipse, sweets, gedit, typoscript
...

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.

gedit, Lorem Ipsum generator, external tool, gnome
...
When i started designing a portal website or programming a click dummy one thing is always needed: the content.
For dummy pictures i often used
Fotolia. You can easily search for images and download lowres layout pictures. If a client like one of these dummy pictures you can buy them for a low budget then.
For text i found a tiny
Lorem ipsum generator which i use as an external tool in gEdit. I wrote the Author that such a tool would be nice as a Gimp plugin too.
Besides that there are
lorem ipsum text generators are online available and as a
Firefox extension available.

plugin, gedit, editor, gnome
...

Yesterday i checked out the
gEdit plugins page again about something new. And i found it. Two plugins for bookmarking files and code lines.
Advanced Bookmarksadds an panel below the code window and lets you easily bookmark the active code line. These bookmarks will be stored, so if you reopening the file again you will get your code line bookmarks back again.
Bookmarks will add an item in the main menu and let you set bookmarks to often edited files.

I updated the instructions about "Using SweeTS" at the bottom of the
SweeTS webpage. It contains now helpful informations about getting off the template caching and how to get *.ts files edited in the backend of
Typo3.
To get *.ts files edited in the backend of Typo3 you must allow editing of files and add this line to your "typo3conf/localconf.php"
$TYPO3_CONF_VARS['SYS']['textfile_ext'] = 'txt,html,htm,css,inc,php,php3,tmpl,js,sql,ts';
Add this into your user TSconfig field in the backend at Tools > Useradmin:
admPanel.override.tsdebug.forceTemplateParsing = 1
So while you are logged in into the backend (may over the browser sidebar) you don't have
to clear the cache.
These and other new hints will improve your workflow so much - check it out!

ubuntu, web development, gnome, editor
...

When i used Windows my favorite editor was
PSPad and i'd like the powerfull line operations of it. When i switched to
Ubuntu Linux i dicovered
gEdit and in love with it. But i missed the nice code line features of PSPad and the old
"Advanced Editing" plugin didn't give me all i like to have.
Today i visit the
gEdit plugins page again and i found what i'm looking for the
"Line Tools" plugin. This gEdit plugins brings you lovely features like:
* Trim Line : Removes the text from the current cursor position to the end of the line
* Clear Line : Removes all the text from the current line
* Kill Line : Completely removes the current line
* Duplicate Line : Creates a duplicate of the current line
* Raise Line : Moves the current line up while moving the line above it down by one line
* Lower Line : Moves the current line down while moving the line below it up by one line
* Copy Line : Copies the current line to the clipboard
* Cut Line : Copies the current line to the clipboard, then completely removes it
* Line Bookmarks : Set bookmarks at any line using Shift+Control+Number and then return to it later by pressing Control+Number
Very cool for coding. Thanks Shaddy!

plugins, editor, HTML, xml
...

For web development I use gEdit which looks in the first as a simple editor but by activating and installing plugins it will be a very cool code machine.
The number of plugins is growing well (my self wrote
3 plugins too) and from time to time i take a look at the
plugins list. These days i found two new plugins that are really helpful:
XML Helper could be better named in "Tag Complement". By a key stroke (i like the old typical HomeSite/ PSPad key Ctrl+, and Ctrl+.) it write all opening or closing tags for you.
Split View will split your code window vertical or hoizontal.

I started with
SweeTS 1.15 directly on the way back from the T3CON'07 when i was influenced by all the nice feedback. Overall new links, more macros and some bugfixes.
I go on with porting SweeTS to Linux/ gEdit too but i still looking for somebody doing the XML RPC job for Typo3 (as a extension) and for gEdit (as a Python plugin). If you are interested please drop me a line.
Again SweeTS makes developing
TYPO3 websites much easier

plugin, gedit, new file, template
...
For
SweeTS i needed the possibilty to create a document based on a template file (the normal "New from template" function). gEdit didn't ship with that and so i tried to create it. I was lucky to find a start in the familiar plugin by
Rob Miller which i modified. This plugin is completely localized in german and english.
How it works:* Copy the files of the
Template plugin into ~/.gnome2/gedit/plugins
* create a folder "templates" in ~/.gnome2/gedit
* copy your templates files into it (example default.html)
* Start gEdit and enable the plugin "New File From a Template" in the preferences
* After a restart the plugin appears in the File menu
* Assign the typical shortcut "Shift+Ctrl+N" to it
* the new created files will get the mimetype of the template files
