Bluefish 1.0 Released

Posted by michael on from the redfish dept.

datadriven writes "Bluefish 1.0 was released this week. I've been using it for about a year and a half and find it to be about the closest thing I've found to Homesite, which I used before switching to Linux. According to the website the new version features 'A new, very extended manual, better gnome and kde integration, much improved bookmarks, many performance improvements.'"

    What, exactly, is Bluefish?

    Oddly, they don't bother to tell you what it is on either the main page or under Features.

    A little digging here reveals:
    Bluefish is a powerful editor for experienced web designers and programmers based on the GTK2 GUI interface. Bluefish supports many programming and markup languages, but focuses on editing dynamic and interactive websites.

    Actually it says "Web Development Studio" in the upper right corner of the homepage. But I agree, they don't do a good job of marketing their product.
