I joined the Beta team for the forthcoming HomeSite 5 a few weeks ago and have been testing it in my daily production environment. So far, this release has acquitted itself admirably.

Although the current release candidate (RC1) contains some impressive additions (XHTML support, new spell checker, editing include files directly), most of the updates are under the hood. The UI is almost identical to HomeSite 4.x with a few minor changes here and there.

Announced in HomeSite 4.0, and improved in 4.5, VTML support has been enhanced in HomeSite 5, making for an eminently customizable interface.

While looking around at different customizations, I found a site with scripts for HomeSite 4.x. Some pretty handy stuff.
