I just hacked htmlarea into this roller installation, and enabled HTTPS redirection.
htmlarea
is really nice, it offers a simple yet powerful html editing capability
that maps transparently to textarea-elements, using only javascript
code (version 3.0 betas work with mozilla, i wouldn't dare install it otherwise). i had to shuffle a few things around in roller to get it working, but no too much.
a table| you can even edit tables |
and add

pictures if you like. There is also an aspell-based spell-checker that
uses a cgi in the background, but i didn't install that yet. Oh, and
multi-level undo...
| but now for some real life stuff... |
work was productive today, i finished quite a bunch of todos, my mood was accordingly good. a guy from
my company's
hardware dealer mailed that the hardware i ordered would arrive within
the day - 512MB of extra RAM and a SATA-Controller for my athlon64
machine, two things i have been waiting to buy since christmas, so i
knew already that the weekend couldn't be all bad, as i would at least
have something to do
(=waste time on). But the driver
didn't show up all day, and i ended up calling the hardware shop 2
times until i got the o.k. to fetch the stuff myself - i began thinking
that customer satisfaction is generally not a valued target of austrian
businesses. but when my boss (who kindly offered to drive me) and i
arrived, he was
very sorry for that mistake and excused 5 times (we're a pretty good customer there...). So i got my hardware just in time...
*phew*i'm
not presenting this in correct chronological order, so i'll have to
back-reference now: a circumstance that my boss offered to drive me to
that shop was, that we sent off a lot of packages today, 66 to be
exact, and we had to get them to the post office. we carried in all the
packages, and the guy on duty started weighing them... all of them. one
after another - and entering the postal code into his peecee. there
sure is some need for process optimisation... of course the packages
all contained exactly the same, in fact, they were packaged in
so he could *see* that there's the same content in every package. well... maybe he would have been bored otherwise.
when
i finally was home, i instantly began installing the new hardware (of
course), and it all just worked(tm). i'm still moving data around, but
from what i can 'feel' now, the sata hard disk is much faster then the
onboard-udma133 one.
clifford was here, and he almost forgot that he had to moderate a radio show
today, so he left again pretty soon. he still was 25 minutes late, 2
other rock linux developers and me listened to the live stream (in
uber-ugly quality). afterwards clifford and his girlfriend came back
here and clifford created an extraordinary meal, with parts of dead
animals and all that.
and now i'm too drunk and much too tired
to keep on writing, besides, i'm curious how the 'result' of a
htmlarea-created entry will render on the final page.
follow-up the next morning: i completely forgot to mention the broken glasses
thing, just when i had a lot of fun hacking hatmlarea, my glasses
broke, one 'holder' broke off. great. no i run around like a total wuzz
again until i get time to have it fixed...
