[wp-hackers] SemButtons

[Elliotte Harold]

With the help of various people here I have now written a plug-in that 
reconfigures the WordPress non-WYSIWYG editor button bar to my liking:

http://www.elharo.com/blog/software-development/web-development/2007/04/16/sembuttons-my-first-wordpress-plugin/

It removes some buttons, adds a few new ones, and changes the names of 
some others.

It is an unbelievably hackish piece of work, and I'm a little astonished 
it works at all. PHP, JavaScript, and CSS are mixed freely but it works 
in Firefox and partially in Safari. I haven't tested other browsers yet.

I'm not sure how useful this is to anybody else. because it's really 
geared toward my own idiosyncratic markup style. However I would 
appreciate hearing from anyone who can figure out how to improve the 
code. It would never have occurred to em to do some of the things I did 
without suggestion from the folks here. One of the goals is to provide 
an interface that would allow end-users to customize their own button 
bars without having to hack the code.

Thanks!
