It is possible to achieve this in FCK (although the interface is slightly different). Go to Format > Formatted Then the far right dropdown (Transformations) will allow you to choose the syntax. Hey Bert,

Are you talking about the Syntax highlighter? It is possible to achieve this in FCK (although the interface is slightly different).

Go to Format > Formatted
Then the far right dropdown (Transformations) will allow you to choose the syntax.

The old editor did. Looks nice, however does not allow me to paste in source code (eg Java), and format it accordingly using the WYSIWYG controls only. The old editor did.

The main problem we're having with multiple editors is they produce XHTML differently. That means people who are editing the same document in different editors will cause things to go haywire. Going forward, we'll probably only support one editor per system as opposed to letting people set it through their preferences :( Jay - I totally understand your concerns.

However, if I am reading you right, the settings would have to be set up for all users of the Deki. That isn't going to work; in our egalitarian society, setting an editor for my preferences shouldn't change those guys that insist on using the old editor. So let me suggest an addition to the (heretofore massively underutilized) My Preferences page that would allow me to use a different editor while not forcing the rest of the users to have to conform to my preferences (and vice versa). Without such a capability, I'm afraid I'll never get a chance to see how good these new editors are... :-( Roy-
