====== Early Web Development ======
When UT started developing on the web, we had to figure out or build tools to do what we needed.

===== Web toolsets over the years =====
1996:
  * First web development trainees
  * Direct login to Unix server via NCSA Telnet to maintain web scripts.

1998:
  * All development was on a Macintosh
  * Natural code developed using 3270 emulator TN3270
  * WebAgent 1 used so all web files had suffix .wb and html code was intermixed with WebAgent commands
  * Web code developed as text files in SimpleText
  * Script migration handled one at a time to dpdev1 using Fetch (an FTP tool)

1999:
  * Domo used for migrations
  * WebAgent 2 introduced - separate .wbd, .wbs, .wbc scripts compiled into .WBX object.
  * BBEdit was the preferred editor on Mac. A webAgent 2 plug-in allowed syntax checking within BBEdit. A command-line webAgent 2 syntax checker was available for Windows.

2000:
  * Mambo developed in house to handle script migration.
  * Development split between Macs and PCs. QWS was standard 3270 client on PCs.

2001:
  * Functionality from Domo and Mambo combined into "Domombigrator", aka DMG. 

2003 (?):
  * jEdit used for script editing. 
  * UT-built DMG plug-in for jEdit allowed for compiling WebAgent scripts directly to dpdev1.

2008 (?):
  * Python introduced as preferred scripting language
  * PyPE environment developed
  * Eclipse with Natclipse plug in used for development
