Re: Quanta Gold (Bernhard Hoellerl)

For me, Kdewebdev 3.5 is still the best!
I tried Quanta Gold some years ago, but it seems, at this time it was also
not under active development, just like Kdewebdev 3.5.

I can suggest: http://www.activestate.com/komodo-edit

This is no KDE program but you can use it on a KDE 4 Desktop.
Requirements: (see http://www.activestate.com/komodo-ide/requirements)
* glibc 2.4 (or higher) and libjpeg.so.62 (or higher)
* libstdc++6 (or higher)
* GTK+ 2.10 (or higher)

This is, what in my opinion, comes next to Quanta Plus, if you install
some additional plugins.
I use it frequently and the usage is not so different to Quanta Plus.

But I still use Quanta Plus, and my way to do this is...
a customized Ubuntu CD. I created it with the UCK (Ubuntu Customization
Kit) especially to run Quanta Plus on a compressed Live-CD on VirtualBox.
I wrote a little script. So, /home, /var/www, and /var/lib/mysql are
automatically mounted on 3 Partitions if a prepared disk-Image (VDI) is
available, everytime when the system starts.
This is nearly, like you would work on a normal system.
On the Live-CD is apache2 with ruby, php, libgd and perl.
It is possible to run i.e. wordpress.
Spelling does not work. But I have added extra Toolbars to Quanta.
There you find an action, that uses Aspell instead.
I never tested the CVS Plugin and the Project Upload function of Quanta
Plus, but I hope that works.

This CD-image is a good demonstration how pretty this arrangement works.
It is no difficult thing to remaster this image and add/remove things or
build your own one.

You can send a mail to [email protected] and I will give you access to
my online-drive. There you find the ISO-Image and the related VirtualBox
Disk Image.
