Linux for Designers

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.

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!

My talk at the T3CON'07 is over and so i published the new version of SweeTS that makes developing TYPO3 websites much easier
