Use with caution! Some features of note: - The default view is an overview of your site, allowing you to quickly find what you want to change. - webmake.cgi includes a rudimentary file manager, allowing you to travel through the directories that make up your site, and create, delete, edit and upload files therein. - Text and XML can be edited quickly, in a textbox, with built-in input areas for entering common metadata items (such as titles). - You can also use it to edit the items of content embedded in the WebMake file itself, or simply edit the WebMake XML file in a text box. - With a single click of a link, the WebMake site can be built there and then. Also, webmake.cgi supports CVS, which provides these benefits: - multiple copies of the same site can be replicated, and changes made on any of the sites will be automatically updated on all the others. - changes made to the site will be kept under version control, so older versions of the site can be ''rolled back'' if necessary. - a history of changes to the site is kept, allowing you to see exactly who did what to which.
