My problem with the WP tool is I haven't found a way to edit existing .HTM
files. So I got HotDog and I really like it. Especialy since they put tabs
on multiple open files.
I add a lot of pages to my hotlist and then copy them from there to my local
file pages which are organized by topic or area. I find the tabs easier
than clicking on "Windows" and selecting the next file - one click instead
of two.
