Spike–
I’m wondering about the Writer SDK. I couldn’t seem to deduce any method to replace/enhance the HTML Source editor.
I’ve got a color syntax-highlighting-editor that can be dropped in place into a .NET app any place you use a text field.
(http://www.codeplex.com/Wiki/View.aspx?ProjectName=ScintillaNET)
I’d *LOVE* to drop in a color-syntax-highlighting editor into Writer–but it doesn’t appear that I can.

Hi Spike,
I checked the WLW SDK , I wanted to write a simple plugin to allow text emotions like
to switch to images. However I couldn’t find where the SDK supports this manipulation of real-time editing.
Please let me know if it is possible.

HI Spike. Thanks again for the WLW feedback the other day. I have another question for you. I would like to completely migrate over to WLW, but I’m not sure there is a way to download ALL of my WordPress posts to view in WLW? I know WLW provides the ability to view up to 500 of the most recent posts, but I believe these entries may only be opened one at a time. Is there a way to download all posts and have them stored in the “My Weblog Posts\Recent Posts” folder? Take care, Ben
All I had to do was point Windows Live Writer to the directory xmlrpc.php was in. For me, that directory was techgtd.pilotech.us/wordpress.
Interestingly, after trying several times with the same settings, Windows Live Writer said that it wasn’t working and that it wanted to try something else. It offered a list of blogging sites, one of which was wordpress, and one particular option was “wordpress (custom installation)”. So I selected that and entered in the directory xmlrpc.php was in, and it worked!
