Actually, I use TextWrangler (a text editor) and hand-code everything.
But the iRev scripting does a lot of the repetitious coding and I use
style sheets to do the formatting.
I like to see up a skeleton page and then have it insert data from
text files, formatting it as it goes.

I only use the On-Rev client for debugging.

For WYSIWYG editing, I have RapidWeaver (Mac only) which allows
insertion of irev pages as iframes, but as I am learning On-Rev, I
prefer to have complete control over the html. Any web editor that
allows you to insert iframes will work, or if you can set the file
extension to irev, I think you could insert HTML snippets full of irev
code.

Cheers,
