Tumult Co. announced Monday version 1.5 of HyperEdit, its HTML and PHP editor for Mac OS X.

HyperEdit uses a split view with text editor and a preview pane to display the web page live as a user types. HyperEdit breaks the tedious cycle of writing HTML/PHP, saving the file, then reloading and viewing the page in the browser by combining the writing phase with the viewing phase.

Version 1.5 improves HyperEdit by adding key features such as a color swatches palette, the ability to tear off the web preview into a separate window, multiple browser previews, and better support for Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger.

Features include live HTML W3C-based validation, the ability to store code snippets for later reuse, syntax highlighting, JavaScript evaluator, PHP engine results, regular expressions, support for multiple style sheets, delay time for rendering the page, and more. Version 1.5 adds color swatches palette, the ability to tear off the web preview into a separate window, multiple browser previews, and better support for Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger.

HyperEdit is shareware and costs US$19.95. Customers who purchased HyperEdit 1.0 can upgrade for free.
