Thanks for the comments Andi.
I was looking at what moinmoin does but I got stuck :(

I was thinking about allowing only simple html tags, like h1, h2, etc and
then parse the resulting html and convert '<br>' to '\\ ' and so on.

I hope I can get how moinmoin works.

Hi,
I was reading about implementing a WYSIWYG editor in DW.
I wonder if its ok to work on the implementation of the FCKeditor?

As far as I know nobody is working on it currently.
I don't want to work on it just to find out that the patch will not be
aproved.

I can not say if it will be approved or not until I see the code. But here are a few things to think of:

- Integrating FCKeditor could be hard because it's an HTML editor, using
  WIKIWYG is probably the better idea (there are some starting points at
  the wiki)
- If you implement it, it should be optional and it should be possible
  disable it on a per user basis (switching between WYSIWYG and usual
  syntax editing on the fly)
- You should think how to handle syntax the editor doesn't understand
  (eg. plugin syntax) - I have no idea how to do this you should see
  what other Wikis do (MoinMoin has WYSIWYG editing)
