[gentoo-user] Kompozer, anyone?

[Peter Humphrey]

Hi list,

I used to use Kompozer (part of the Mozilla suite) but time has passed and now 
the libraries it needs are no longer in portage. That's using the binary. 
Attempting to build it from source according to these instructions [1] fails 
too because the script can't find some other libraries. The project seems to be 
dead, or at least moribund, and hasn't been updated since version 0.8b3 which 
relied on gcc 4.2.

Has anyone managed to get it to compile?

Or maybe there's another WYSIWIG HTML editor?

I use BlueFish most of the time, but just occasionally Kompozer has been 
useful too, and it would be a shame if it just died.

Peter

Is it not part of the Mozilla suite anymore? Try seamonkey or
seamonkey-bin, which is the current incarnation of the suite.

Yes, I find that Seamonkey has a Composer component, but it seems not to have a 
CSS editor like that of the old Kompozer. That's the one thing I was hoping to 
find in it!

Now for some heavy searching for alternatives...

Bluefish and komodo-edit-bin (which is resource hungry):
