Sunday: Back to work!

16 May 2004


I just spent a few relaxing days with my partner in the Blue Mountains. When we came back to Sydney, I tried to update the site and found that the Adobe GoLive trial had finished! So, now I have no GoLive on the Mac or on the IBM until I buy it. I guess I can go without food for a month...

On Windows I have been using Visual Studio .NET's editor to edit my HTML. Visual Studio .NET's editor highlights the HTML tags, and shows the attributes for the simple tags.

On the Mac I am using SubEthaEdit for the moment, it highlights the HTML tags, but doesn't seem to suggest tag attributes, which is a little annoying. This just means my search for an all-round text editor has to accelerate!

Editing my simple pages using SubEthaEdit is not too painful, for most of the tags I use I know most of the attributes anyway.

Adobe GoLive (seperate) AU$699 or AU$137 (academic) from Harris Technologies(Australia).

Adobe Create Suite Premium AU$1899 or $604 (academic) also from Harris Technologies(Australia).

I have also since been "told" why people I know don't want to switch to Mac: "Oh, but there's no software around for them..." with more than a hint of piracy in the air...
