ZopeEditManager CommentaryA little more explanation - Version: 0.9.7, 12/2/2005 04:36AM PST

For those who know Zope but are not familiar with this..

If you install the ExternalEditor product on your Zope server, then when you're browsing through your Zope system, in addition to being able to edit the files through your browser, you get a little pencil icon beside the objects, which is a link to a .zem file representing that page and how to edit it.
If you click on it, your browser will download the .zem file.

This program understands those .zem files and can use it to grab the file from the server, and pass it to an editor of your choice. (TextMate, in my case). It also monitors the local copy so that whenever you hit save in your editor, it copies it back up to the server. This is very cute.

If you use Safari as your browser, it will just download the .zem file and you'll need to double-click it to get it into ZopeEditManager. If you use Firefox (and some other browsers), you can configure it to open .zem files automatically in ZopeEditManager so it really is as if you're editing the remote file in your local editor with a single click.

I've only done a quick trial, but so far it seems to work nicely.

If you go to the Developers Site, upper right hand side of page, and click on that, you'll get a page that shows what other apps the developer has made for OSX and/or OSX9 that will take you to VersionTracker Software Pages for that particular item. if any. In most cases, you'll find some additional links for other programs, as many developers have more than one. Also, if you notice on the page that you clicked (page two) up in the middle to right side of page is a link to the developers website where you can more than likely get even more info ... I noticed by going to this link http://www.urbanape.com/categorylist_html?cat_id=3 that the previous version of Zope Editor only worked well in Mozilla. I don't know about this version, but before you blast them, you should do some reading.
