Live with GreyMatter

Written by vtluu on February 23rd, 2002

Been working on setting up GreyMatter. GM seems to have a bug where the HTML character entity “&lt;” in an entry is converted to “<” (and similarly for “&gt;”). The entity is used to display a less-than sign since that character is normally used to designate HTML tags. Special characters are specified the same way; for example, “&acirc;” (meaning “letter ‘a’ + circumflex accent”) will display the character “â”. Anyway, it seems I can work around the aforementioned bug by using “&#60;” and “&#62;” instead, so it’s not a showstopper. Other than that, GM seems to be working pretty well. It has some highly flexible archival and search features that I haven’t yet begun to tap.
