I am looking for a wsyiwyg html editor for note taking as I build up a system to note what I am doing. I typically just use gedit, but this system's notes are getting complex, and using code tabs, lists, and the like would make it more enduring.
Gedit supports tabs. I'm not sure what you mean by "code tabs"
tags. Typo. <code> ... </code>
Bluefish or Geany might be helpful, even if they aren't WYSIWYG editors.
Looked a bit at Bluefish, not Geany.
Take a peek at Kompozer or Amaya.
Kompozer, I would have to build. I have enough on my plate right now, and HOPED to get something to 'just' install via yum. Did not look at Amaya.
But like Mark points out, WYSIWYG html editors aren't all that great (and yes, Adobe Dreamweaver isn't perfect either).
I am trying Seamonkey -edit per Harald, and it ALMOST looks ok. But the Wiki idea is something I have wanted to tackle anyway.
I am looking at lonote on my F17 notebook, but I would like to do the note taking directly on the Centos system.
Just basic html. Image inclusions if I do screen captures would be nice too.
2nd recommendation is that if you want online html documentation, use a wiki with its own editor and simple markup instead of transferring files around. I like twiki, but mediawiki is probably more popular and there are many other choices. That way you only need a browser and it won't matter what OS you have locally.
+1 for using a wiki for your documentation
Will look into this more.
Finally, if you do need to use an editor to save files as html, libreoffice writer should work, but be sure you work with the view in 'web layout' and do the formatting with styles from the F11 menu with 'html' selected at the bottom.
