Don’t know if I will get it to use webkit and the + by tomorrow. Also still looking for a good name, tried Gwibblog, but it doesn’t roll of the tongue quite right.</p> I can get it to show the first few lines with a + and that plus would then show the rest of the post.

Editor has 3 views : code view, page view(uses webkit) and split view(like in dreamweaver, half of the editor is used for coding and other half for preview).This is my first time I program in Python, so I have very messy code :( But I am learning it and love it ! I also made some shortcuts in editor so you can : bold, italic, underline and strike text,insert image, insert link, insert mailto link and insert color as hex code. Don't have name for it now, but I will think of something ;)</p> I noticed that there are not so many web design programs, so I started on making one, for now simple, HTML editor.
