Is there a any module, which allows me to edit files like templates or CSS inside of Drupal? So that I don't have to download it via FTP, edit it with an external tool and upload it via FTP.
Would be very cool, if such a module hightlights the syntax (GeSHi like).
And even cooler, if that modules allows me to create new files, too. (let's say an own template file for a special content type)

you can use the contemplate module to edit content type templates and the alter_css module to edit css (though i don't believe it's available for d6 yet). You don't say what os you're on, but if you use windows, you can use Winscp to edit the files directly with the editor of your choice (i use notepad++ which has syntax highlighting).

I tried Contemplate with Drupal 5 some month ago and it was very unclear/complex, because the editor area was so small and there was no syntax highlighting. Did it change with version 6?
Alter CSS sounds great, but - as you said - is not available for Drupal 6 :(
I'm using GNU/Linux.

no... it's basically the same in d6. pretty much a textarea but it is resizable. I'm not really familiar with the dev tools available for *nix-- but there has to be something similar you can use that puts a gui on the ftp interface and lets you specify which editor to open when you select a file.

Maybe someone knows a recommendable free application not implemented in Drupal but running on shared hosting LAMP (so no local tool)? It's just, that I'm often to lazy to open a local installed application, to download from FTP, edit it, upload with FTP. I'd love to login to my browser and edit the files like I post in this forum here + syntax highlighting (Geshi or something?), if possible.
ECCO
Give a try to http://ecco.sourceforge.net, a javascript based code editor. It is able to open, edit and save files, from your browser! and includes syntax highlight O_o
Blessings!

Wow, that sounds/looks great.
Wow, that sounds/looks great. Unfortunately it's seems to be abandoned (no chance to download the alpha, either).
In a discussion I found the link to Comparison of JavaScript-based source code editors. I'll have a look.
Try the Theme editor module.
