When I upgraded Wordpress earlier this week, a also moved web hosts. I left all of my subdomains over on the old host because I didn’t have time to move them all over yet. Turns out that they aren’t working. I’ve fixed one of them, and plan to fix the rest tonight, but some of my add-ons sorta depend on stuff being around that clearly aren’t. Everything should be back up tomorrow. Please pardon my construction dust…
They were kind enough to land the spell checking of XUL textboxes on to the 1.8 branch, so I’ve properly enabled it now in RTSE. You should get a notification about an update within 24 hours, or you can just download and install it again here.
I got some time today to get the file fixed up and the build out to all the places (I have to upload it here and to SourceForge). I also have to allow time to post all the release notices in the various places. It’s all very time consuming, and I don’t have a lot of time.
Anyway, those of you who have jumped the gun like me and have Firefox 2.0 installed (it’s just a release candidate, so don’t get it unless you want something that is potentially unstable), I’m sorry but spell checking won’t work. Well, it works in the sense that it underlines the word, but it won’t offer suggestions. This is because of Bug 346787, which might make it into 2.0.0.1.
Update in the normal ways (download it here, or have the extension/addons manager do it for you), and be on your way!
That’s right folks, a new release. It has some of the long awaited features such as same page replies, in-reply-to-linking, and a few other optimizations. Let me just say that I cannot wait to move to trunk. This 1.0 branch code is really crappy. I’m really glad my coding skills have greatly improved over when I first started this.
You can get the update by going to http://shawnwilsher.com/extensions/rtse/ and installing it, or by going to the extension manager, selecting RTSE, and selecting find updates.

Man, I’ve got a feature in the works that will just rock. I’m gonna keep this one under wraps until it’s done though, but the good news is that RTSE 1.0.5 is out and available for the general population.
The new features include (but are not limited to):
-Vastly improved editor interface (we are talking leaps and bounds over what you have now)
-Reply on same page (disabled by default. You will have to enable it)
-Custom color picker
-Colored text works more intuitvely
-Convert smilies check box for those times when you don’t want you smilies auto-converted
-Better support for the various themes in Firefox
