Good News For MarsEdit Users!
Nowadays I’m a convinced MarsEdit user, something you probably gathered if you read yesterday’s post on Devlounge. MarsEdit developer Daniel Jalkut was kind enough to answer my criticism, which is good news for MarsEdit users on WordPress out there:
The nitpick about the Body/Extended content is something I’ve had reported to me before, and I decided to investigate it a little more thoroughly. It turns out the situation is sort of clouded by some funny behavior in WordPress. I reported a bug to the WordPress team:
http://trac.wordpress.org/ticket/6016
Basically, they make some assumptions about the body/extended being separated by a newline. So there isn’t much I can do about it until they modify the system to accept the content more literally (MarsEdit just sends it literally in two separate chunks - you can confirm it by peeking in MarsEdit’s network log).
Let’s hope the WordPress folks get this right!
What do you think?
