Hi all,
I have just finished uploading the newest OS/2 version of the NVU ("N-view") next generation HTML+CSS editor based on Mozilla code. My package now includes both the English (en-US) and German (de-DE) language version, where en-US is the default. If you want de-DE start NVU with "-UIlocale de-DE" as extra parameters. For other tricks see the contained file ReadMe.OS2. People who want to try all the features of NVU might find the help pages useful, they are accessible via Help->Help Contents and thanks to the great effort of Thorsten Fritz also fully available in German!
The package is available from my Mozilla builds page
http://weilbacher.org/Mozilla/builds.html
or directly as
http://weilbacher.org/Mozilla/nvu-0.70-os2.zip
If you have problems with this package, please post here in
news://secnews.netscape.com/netscape.public.mozilla.os2 or mail me.
OS/2 relevant changes since 0.60 (from Daniel Glazman's announcement): Note also: Because NVU is still in the pre-1.0 phase I think it is expected that you remove your profile before starting the new version. At least you might want to delete XUL.mfl and chrome/chrome.rdf. -- Cheers, Peter.

* Nvu is now based on Firefox 1.0 codebase! Many thanks to Benjamin Smedberg for his crucial help.
* As a side-effect of the above, the Extensions and Themes managers now work correctly. A few extensions are available from there. Developers willing to create new extensions or themes for Nvu need its application ID.
* The character set can be changed on the fly and chosen by default in the preferences.
* ? character added to the Insert Special Characters dialog.
* PHP processing instructions were incorrectly serialized with a leading >?php, this is now fixed :-)
* Publishing a document was firing an alert, it's now gone.
* The Inline Spell Checker is turned OFF by default because it drastically impacts performance when you save a loooong document or switch back from source to normal view.
* Source view enhanced to prepare line numbering (should be available in 0.80)
* Context-click on the last tab to close it left the tabeditor grey, this is now fixed
* Editing the source view and switching back does not double the contents of the document any longer
* Progress on non-localizable strings although it's still a work in progress (thanks to Flore and Bob for the list)
* Localization uses the composer/locales directory.
* oh, and of course, nvu -edit
