YUI has become my new favourite Rich Text Editor and I have been implementing it left right and center. It's extensability, features and ease of use are unparralled. It made sense for all these features to be available to me in MovableType also but no-one seems to have yet done that. What choice did I have but to do it myself?
When I release this properly there will be a choice of downloads:
- Plug-in plus YUI build folder
- Plug-in referencing local build folder but not included
- Plug-in referencing yahoo hosted build folder
For this early version I have only packaged up the full version (1),
but when I am happy with it and the full release it out, it will be
available in different 'flavours'.
