About Bluefish

Bluefish is a full featured Web editor for Linux. A lot of the features like HTML checking and spell checking require external programs, but they are common programs on most Linux systems. It is primarily a code editor, not specifically a Web editor. This means that it has a lot of flexibility for Web developers writing in more than just HTML, but if you're a designer by nature you might not like it as much.

Target Market(s): Professional Web Developers
