RE: [TCLUG:17130] Dreamweaver (was: <OT:anti-M$> *scary* stuff... )

Yeah - I tend to use Dreamweaver as more of a rapid
prototyping tool than anything else.  I generate the (usually
very clean) Dreamweaver HTML, and then go through
it and dynamify it.  :P  Dreamweaver is a *great* prototyping
tool, and can do extremely complex page layouts with
tables and stuff.  It's "behaviors" features are usually quite
helpful, also, as I'm not much of a JavaScript fiend.

        I know, I was being fecious.  I have to run it here at work.  It is
cool for static, pages, but it doesn't know much about dynamic stuff which
makes it a bit frustrating.  It's also a resource hog.  With Dreamweaver and
Outlook opened here at work, my machine is SLOW!

        Actually, I was hoping you would separate what you run concurrently
on your Linux box and what you run on you Windows box to push it.

        I am too, but my boss has shown me that frames are the way to go for
this project.

        I can see why.  If your OS doesn't run the apps you need, then run
the proper OS.  That seems pretty reasonable.

        StarOffice seems pretty decent.  Amaya, seems good too.
