snJvi - shell article editor interface perl script Tool

snJvi is Unix command line article editor interface for Joomla! 1.5.

It may be appreciated by old-school folks who prefer using their favourite Unix text editor (vi, emacs, etc.) over any web browser based solution.

Can be used as an integration tool to import data from an external source into articles. It is also possible to export articles from Joomla! database.

This script is also an example on how Joomla! configuration parameters and database can be accessed and manipulated from a perl script. Free for any use.

Version 1.1 has the same functionality as the original version but it uses the new CMS::Joomla Perl module for configuration and database access.

Version 1.2 changes the license to GPLv3 to comply with new JED rules.

Report

You was right, Unicode support is absent. It is my old idea, to have possibility to edit articles in my favourite Vim, but it is still a dream& :-(

Error message is: «Unknown Unicode option letter ' '». Maybe, it's just my own error, I will be very glad to hear this and possible solution.

I don't know Perl, so I can only hope somebody will improve this script or I will at last wright my own in other language.
