Guilty. I wrote another blogging engine. This one's command-line based and only for those willing to get HTML on their shirt. Writing a post looks like this:
- bin/new "This is the post's title"
- Write the post in the file it gives you
- bin/preview path/to/the/post
- Check it out in your favorite browser
- bin/publish path/to/the/post
I rolled my own because I rather like the command line and rather dislike being h4x0red. It has a script to import a Wordpress blog, so you can come and play, too. The source is on GitHub.
Go ahead and make fun of me for spending my free time on this. I hope it'll make me write more (I hated Wordpress' WYSIWYG editor, even in HTML mode).

I hate Wordpress' WYSIWYG editor as well, but I do admit that I like plentiful plugins that are available.
I love the idea of being able to publish through command line so I will eventually be giving this a try.

And here's the keyboard he uses to do all this:
(btw, this HTML better work after all that shit talking about "getting HTML on their shirt")

Blosxom, dude. FTP a text file with the title in the first line → new blog post! (This sounds good too, though.)
