I love UltraEdit, but still use Dreamweaver for work because of its simple check-in/check-out feature.
If I can find a way to emulate Dreamweaver's check-out feature, I can finally switch 100% to UltraEdit.
Here are the features I would like to emulate:
1) When a file is checked in, its local copy is read-only; when it's checked out, it can be edited.
2) When a file is checked in, it has a lock icon next to it in the file explorer panel; when it's checked out, the icon is a checkmark.
3) Any file can be checked in and out (e.g., images, wavs, etc.) via the file explorer panel.
4) If you are a viewing or editing a file, you can check it in or out via a single hotkey.
5) You can also check in/out a file via the context menu (right click) within the file explorer panel.
6) Checking in/out a file copies it from/to the local tree to/from the same part of the remote tree.
7) You can select a different remote tree via a simple menu.
NOTE: Dreamweaver also uploads a lock file (filename.LCK) to the remote tree whenever you check out a file. That lock file contains information about who checked out the file. Since I'm the only developer, I don't really need that feature, although it might be the easiest way to keep track of which files are checked in and out.
So, do you think it's possible to get each of those features (1-7) working in UltraEdit? I can write a script with does #4 and #6. I'm not sure about the others.
