Beginner web designers on Linux do not currently have a design program which marries depth of functionality with the ease of use offered by DREAMWEAVER.

A choice has to be made, the designer must either use a more simplistic program in order to gain a WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) interface, or "fly blind" with a purely code based application.

The key benefit of Dreamweaver for windows and Mac users is that it marries the two. I have so far been impressed with bluefish as far as functionality and additional interface features but it still lacks the option to utilise WYSIWYG editing.
