Shawn Blanc examines Panic's Coda

Shawn Blanc continues his outstanding series of Mac software reviews by looking at Coda, the all-in-one web worker's application from Coda (we've mentioned Coda several times). He explores Coda's performance as a text editor, CSS editor, FTP client and more, while extolling the little touches like the Clips feature:

"You can save any text you want as a "Clip"... [which feature] a Global database as well as a site-specific database...."

We love Coda, too, as well as Shawn's comprehensive -- even exhaustive -- explorations (somehow, "review" seems inadequate). Have fun reading, and if that doesn't convince you to purchase Coda, we don't know what will.

Sandvox 1.2.4 offers Leopard compatibility, more

Karelia has released Sandvox version 1.2.4, with improvements for both Leopard and Tiger users (we've mentioned Sandvox several times). For the uninitiated, it's a WYSIWIG web editor that features iLife integration, .Mac support, beautiful default forms, and drag-and-drop ease. If you like iWeb and Rapidweaver, you'll like Sandvox.

This update includes the following changes:
  • Leopard-ready.
  • Improved compatibility with iPhoto '08
  • Graphical title text size is consistent across all pages within a site.
  • Improvements to many designs.
  • Numerous bug fixes
Check Sandvox out if you haven't. Sandvox requires Mac OS 10.4 or later, is universal and comes in both pro ($79US) and "regular" ($49US) versions. Version 1.2.4 is a free upgrade for registered users.

RapidWeaver 3.6.4 is available

RapidWeaver by Realmac Sofware is a WYSIWYG web editor that we like. If you're unfamiliar, it's a super-simple editor that features iLife and .Mac integration, flash photo galleries, an SDK and so on. Version 3.6.4 offers Leopard compatibility.

Realmac also announced today that Rapidweaver 4.0 is under development. It will be exclusive to Mac OS 10.5 and a free upgrade for registered users. Cool! In fact, you can get a sneak peek of of RapidWeaver 4.0 at London's MacLive Expo at the end of this week.
