Ruby blog software

Excerpts from James Britt's mail of 2 Sep 2004 (EDT):

Well, what would be handy all around would be a client-side tool that
let you edit stuff and then magically FTP|XML-RPC|WebDAV the results
to a a server.

Emacs has ange-ftp mode, which lets you treat remote ftp servers as if
they were local directories. (Also see tramp mode if you want scp/rcp
instead of ftp.) Not exactly what you want, perhaps, but maybe close.

I hacked an ugly tiny cgi-script for a friend.
All it does:
it's a form where you enter the text and specify the format.
Then it gets saved on the server where I run rublog.
There is a 2nd cgi-script that allows deleting, editing,
making/deleting categories.

If anybody wants a copy, email me.

Ciao,
   -A

I would love to see these tiny cgi scripts. Thank you very much!

Sincerely,

- Lloyd

God bless you.

You'll need to get the CVS tarball from RubyForge; Dave hasn't made a
release in a while. :slight_smile:

dave-

downloaded 0.8.0 from sourceforge (no download on rubyforge?). in any case,
trying to fire it up and getting errors regarding 'require "markup/xxx"'. did
a 'cp -r /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8./rdoc ./markup' and that has fixed many of
the problems. i'm wondering, however, has the installed directory hierarchy
of rdoc changed, or is this a bug?

btw. so far it seems to run under webrick o.k. - at least i'm getting
something.

The sourceforge project is seriously out of date, but they won't let me delete it. Use the CVS version on RubyForge.

At some point I'll put together a file release there, but in the meantime the CVS one is stable (it's what I use for my blog)

Cheers
