TL's Favorite Freeware

This is a list of the free software that I find to be most useful.

Web Toolkit

HTML-Kit Boasting over 400 plugins, this rich framework helps me view and change HTML, Java Script, PHP and edit CSS. I can work on files on the server. Even thought I use b2evolution, osCommerce and Joomla, I still need to edit. HTML-Kit combined with the next app makes working pretty easy. A commercial version is available.

Filezilla This is a great free cross-platform ftp program available in many languages. I like it because you can configure file types outside of windows so you can view or edit file-types using your favorite editor. What you can't do with HTML-Kit, you can arrange to get it done with Filezilla.

Color Cop is a very light stand alone executable that identifies and converts colors to Hexadecimal color codes. Since many instances of the program can be ran simultaneously, its' icon is in my Quick Launch.

I use IE8, Google Chrome, and Opera9. Yes, I use these to check how things look. But that's not all. Every since Microsoft came out with IE8 I've been using it as my general browser.




Graphics

Paint.Net The only thing this application lacks is an airbrush. If I want to use one I use the copy of Paintshop Pro that came with HomeSite4 a million years ago: version 4.15(1998). The next version of Paint.Net is reportedly supposed to have an airbrush. We'll see. I can't stand The GIMP.



Utilities

Synergy This wonderful piece of software allows you to connect two or more computers on your network with one mouse and one keyboard. It can load at startup. It is multi-platform so you can do this with a Windows Machine and a Linux Rig.



Server Side

Word Press Requires PHP and MySQL, this installs on your website. It helps you manage your blog.
