What is "WYSIWOO"?

Ian
Ok, just come across this term and can't find a definition.

Google finds an article with this quote:

"Leading Document Orientated XML Editors such as Epic, XXE, XMetal, Morphon,
and Syntext have all shown that WYSIWOO is the "best practice".

Probably obvious but I can't figure it :)

If you check the preceding paragrpah you'll find "What You See Is One
Option".

That's WYSIOO, but perhaps WYSIWOO is just a typo.

Yes. It's taken editor makers 20 years to grok it, but finally we're
seeing synchronous typographical interfaces that are getting a little
bit closer to being usable by the non-XML-expert author. However, it
would be nice to see them doing more at the usability level, as I
pointed out in Montreal two years ago. I'd hate to see they hide the
deficiencies of their products behind a statement like the quote above.

Note: I tried cross-posting this message to several newsgoups, including comp.lang.perl.misc, c.l.p.moderated, comp.infosystems.www.authoring.cgi, comp.lang.javascript and comp.lang.php. Nothing appeared on my news server, so I'm trying again - this time posting a separate copy of the message to each group. I'm thinking this should be fairly easy to accomplish - a quick and dirty ... what? ... script? program?

I want to give users the power to edit files from an easy interface, so I create a form and a PHP script called "fileUpdate". It does a reasonable about of error checking and prints out some errors. It uses fileperms() to get the permissions of the file, and it includes that info in any error message. Today I'm getting the following error message. I've used SmartFtp to go in and set the test file's permissions to 777, but in this error...

What's better about Ruby than Python? I'm sure there's something. What is it? This is not a troll. I'm language shopping and I want people's answers. I don't know beans about Ruby or have any preconceived ideas about it. I have noticed, however, that every programmer I talk to who's aware of Python is also talking about Ruby. So it seems that Ruby has the potential to compete with and displace Python. I'm curious on what basis it...

I think everyone who used Python will agree that its syntax is the best thing going for it. It is very readable and easy for everyone to learn. But, Python does not a have very good macro capabilities, unfortunately. I'd like to know if it may be possible to add a powerful macro system to Python, while keeping its amazing syntax, and if it could be possible to add Pythonistic syntax to Lisp or Scheme, while keeping all of the...

I started writing this list because I wanted to have definite points to base a comparison on and as the starting point of writing something myself. After looking around, I think it would be a waste of time to start writing yet another IDE and so am now thinking in terms of new features/plug-ins for existing systems. Right now I mostly use Komodo Personal and it's pretty close to being what I want. They don't currently support plug-ins,...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
