People who play with websites...?

byslantedlightSo... having a lovely shiny new laptop, and having my files and photos etc safely stored and moved across, the next thing I have to do is re-download the various programmes I've been using. That's fine, except for the programme I use for my palelyloitering website, which was a very old and naughty version of DreamWeaver... Really I needed to deal with the fact that some aspects of it weren't functional any more, so this is perhaps a good kick for doing that, but... waaah - I can't afford to buy a shiny new version of DreamWeaver at all! Which brings me to my question... *g*
Does anyone use a DreamWeaver equivalent for organising and uploading and all their website? One that's nice and free and user-friendly? I do want to be able to access the code and so on, so that I can see what it's doing when I need to, but I liked being able to write pages without the code too (is that called the WYSIWYG function?) I've googled and found things like Aptana and KompoZer and BlueGriffon - two of those seem to me Firefox-oriented, which I don't use by choice, and the other doesn't have WYSIWYG, but perhaps the former shouldn't matter? Anyway - if anyone's got any suggestions, they'd be greatly appreciated, cos I'm slow enough at getting the poor old website updated and all as it is... (I wish I was clever enough to be able to make it searchable, too, but I think that's an entirely different thing, from poking around about it a year or so ago...)
Help? *g*
