NAME
zopeedit - helper application that handles the interaction between the
Zope ExternalEditor product and the client side applications
SYNOPSIS
This program is intended to be called by the web browser in response to
the application/x-zope-edit MIME type, and is not meant to be called
directly by the user except for debugging or testing purposes.
DESCRIPTION
Most web browsers should respect the MIME handling instructions in the
/etc/mailcap metamail capabilities file, where an entry should have
automatically been placed by the system to let zopeedit handle the
application/x-zope-edit MIME type.
However, if your web browser does not respect mailcap, or if it was not
automatically updated during installation, you can simply specify
/usr/bin/zopeedit
as a new helper application in your web browser of choice to handle
downloads of MIME type
application/x-zope-edit
for you to be able to edit Zope objects using your favourite editor.
Further customization may be made after the first run of the helper
application on the file
~/.zope-external-edit
More information on configuration and debugging are available in the
upstream author’s home page at
<http://www.zope.org/Members/Caseman/ExternalEditor>.
