Aptana IDE

Aptana is an IDE used primarily for developing Ruby on Rails applications but it can be used just for creating simple sites using HTML & CSS. It can also be installed as an Eclipse plugin.

Getting Started with RadRails from Aptana, Inc. on Vimeo.

KompoZer Windows Installer

I've been using the HTML editor KompoZer for some time now. I'm sure a lot more Windows users would use it too if it wasn't for the installation method. Currently KompoZer is distributed as a ZIP file which you have to decompress & manually install, which I'm sure puts some users off.

I've used Inno Setup to create an Installer, which will install the program for you. I've tested it on my own computer & it worked fine, plus it should also work on Vista machines too as it asks for administrator privileges.

It installs the newest version of Kompozer which is version 0.8a2 & the installer is available to download from here.

IP Address Website Tool

Sadly the tool on this site doesn't create signatures which use BB code for ProBoards Forums but it does produce HTML code which can be embedded on blogs, websites & wikis.

I've updated all the Basic4GL HTML Help files on my website, I've also updated the PDF versions too. If you want to see them & download them, please go here.
