Hello,

I'm trying to switch from Mozilla to Opera. So far I'm truly impressed
with Opera. However, I can't find how to use an external editor for
editing textareas. I used the mozex extension on Mozilla, which allowed
me to edit textareas with vim and handle mailto links with mutt. I
don't think I could do my day-to-day computer work without that
capability.

I searched this group's archives and found posts from 2001 and 2004,
and hoped that the scenario might have changed. I also searched Opera's
knowledge base to no avail.

Would anybody have a suggestion on how to edit textareas with an
external editor ?

I'm running Opera 8.51 on Debian sid.

Thanks for your attention
Paulo
