That's pretty much what I've done from the beginning as well. I've looked at
a few "HTML editors", including "HTML extenders" for OS/2's Enhanced Editor
(kinda neat - highlight a portion of text, select "HTML -> Physical Styles ->
Bold" from the pulldown menus, and yer done - but seems somewhat
round-a-bout). I, too, find it generally more convenient to do all my HTML in
QEdit. :-)
