If you think that HTML is as much of a pain in the neck as I do, but you need to do Web publishing, then you want a WYSIWYG HTML editor. There's just one problem: which one?

After trying dozens of programs, I finally settled on HTML Editor for the Mac, written by Rick Giles. This spiffy piece of shareware packs a number of features, including the ability to easily specify fonts, set headlines, and create a variety of lists. Results post to your Web page as you type. It even has a simple system for linking URLs and creating image and table maps, an Undo/Redo command. And it easily handles files larger than 32 Kbytes (something of a rarity among shareware programs).

I use HTML Editor to automatically convert large blocks of ASCII text to HTML - a quick process. Of course, I can always enter my own tags, too. Plus, using Information Presentation Technologies's uShare software to mount my Unix file system on my Mac, I can edit files on the Net server - without ftp.

Though this program is shareware, it boasts features that I have yet to see on commercial editors costing hundreds of dollars.

HTML Editor for Mac: shareware US$25 for registration. Contact: http://dragon.acadiau.ca/~giles/Html_Editor/Documentation.html.
