Hi again,
There is a serious bug which makes the wysiwyg editor fail because the Rt
code loads on wysiwyg.
With the code in the JS Extension
var isRealtimeMode = function() {
return (window.location.hash == '#RealTime');
};
#if ("$!request.lazy" != "true")
if (isRealtimeMode()) {
Rt.load();
}
It allows to avoid loading conflicting code when in wysiwyg.

Hi Caleb,
This is great progress ! Way to go.
Some improvements, sorted by priority from my POV:
- Support real-time editing on an object Textarea field
- The current textarea does not allow to do a select All of the text
- XEM compatibility either as an extension for the global wiki, or as a
template based install (right now you have to install the XAR in each wiki)
- Install through extension manager
- See who's editing
- Auto-saving
- Handling merging if there has been a concurrent editing
- Support a live switch from wiki editing to real-time editing

Hi Caleb,
Ok I've played with it, very cool! :)
Some next steps:
* Make it a real extension installable with the Extension Manager:
** Move the project to xwiki-contrib and release a first 1.0 version of
the JAR and XAR in the xwiki maven repo for contrib
Slightly later:
* Add an Extension Point for the Edit menu and transform the JS Skin
extension into a UI Extension
Of course in term of the editor itself there are a few things to improve.
Some ideas:
* Release the lock only when all the editors have either cancelled or
saved the document so that someone who edits in wiki mode gets a lock
dialog box if someone is still editing it
* See who's editing + colors to differentiate users
* Use a textarea similar to the wiki editor one (no line number, same
font, etc)
Thanks
