This is the translation of a request made by Jojaba∞. To see the original version you can go to this page.

Jojaba is using a text editor (in its case jEdit∞) in order to modify its html pages. Since the beginning of his use of Plume CMS, he directly typed his text in the administration part of his website (according to him, because he knows better html than wiki). However two characteristics of jEdit that he used a lot and that were time-saving are not yet available in this case: the syntaxic coloration and the autocompletion of html markup.

Autocompletion

The autocompletion is needed for the entry field (textarea) of the news and article redaction. After some research of the web, he found some ressources concerning coloration (see the list in next section) but nothing about autocompletion. Maybe it is possible to adapt the jEdit plugin to the Plume architecture. This plugin is called XML.

• Plugins needed in order to use XML in jEdit: ErrorList∞, SideKick∞, Xerces Plugin∞.

Real Time Syntax Highlighting

I've found a script, mainly based on JavaScript, which can perform real time syntax highlighting. It's known as Codepress∞ (ex RTSHJS) et is part of ECCO original project. ECCO is an online IDE and its current development status is alpha version, however Codepress is v0.88.
Note that the Codepress website∞ provides a demo editor.
