Richard,
Yesbut... The man said inexpensive! PageSpinner costs about 1/3 of what
BBEdit plus a decent book costs! I think starting with an HTML editor
probably works better for a lot of people who will graduate to hand-coding
in due course. PageSpinner is competent, inexpensive and, BTW, quite
scriptable. IMHO.
