Zope Product External Editor

Comment 2 Axxackall 2003-02-27 18:47:29 UTC

Can we call it (the ebuild file, not the product!) as ZMIexternaleditor?
It's hard to go through net-www to find all zope products.

Or is it a time to create net-zope?

Comment 3 Axxackall 2003-02-27 19:07:47 UTC

The description is way too long.

Comment 4 Axxackall 2003-02-27 19:12:21 UTC

By the way, the description syntax is incorrect as it has a quote symbol inside.

Comment 5 Axxackall 2003-02-27 19:24:39 UTC

Found the pencil icon. 

Calling xemacs... saving... nothing happened...

Alright, this product requires certainly more than 5 minutes to be understood and tested. we'll see tomorrow.

Zope External Editor

updated description and added hint to set up necessary helper app

Comment 7 Dominik 2003-03-02 13:11:52 UTC

IMHO, ZMIexternaleditor is not a good name. when there are enough zope products 
in the portage tree (net-www) i hope that a new folder net-zope will be opened. :)

I believe I've been given the go ahead to make the new group net-zope. :)

A similar ebuild (externaleditor-0.5) has been added to the portage tree. I'm aware of the development version 0.6. If noone has problems with the 0.5 ebuild, then will do a version bump in a week or so.

Thanks for your help,
