Webby for ruby
Webby is doing nearly the same thing as blazeblogger and seems to be a better tol for me because it is fully build on ruby and using the whole stack of it. You can use multiple different templating engines and you have full rake support for deployment of the site. Perhaps there is although a nice and clean way to deploy the site directly ot S3 and CloudFront...
BasicTex on Mac
I like to use LaTex as my typesetting application for my paperwork. I have a great template I can use to write letters with ease in no time. There are some Distributions available for the Mac. You can use BasicTex if the other distributions are too heavy for you.
I just need the basic stuff and the dinbrief package. (Just follow the readme).
When you are done put in somewhere on your disc and set the Tex Searchpath to it, e.g.: export TEXINPUTS=".:~/Dropbox/Tex:"
Markdown with BlazeBlogger on Devio.us
I installed BlazeBlogger on my Devio.us-Account. After I was up and running I installed the Markdown-Script from John Gruber to use Markdown for my posts.
- Put the Markdown.pl in a folder in your home directory.
- Setup BlazeBlogger by setting core.processor to "Markdown.pl --html4tags %in% > %out%" and you are done
- Use blaze make to export the site again
