Rick,

I, Matt, posted the question.  Anyhow, I do use emacs extensivley.  I use it
to alter the html, insert TMPL tags, etc.  One thing I can't stand to do is
tables.  That is what graphical editors are good for, I think.  I was just
curious to see if there were any out there that run on linux and don't alter
tags...

Hi Roger,

I would asume that if your using staroffice you probably on a Linux/Sun/Unix
system.

Try using emacs as your editor.  You can configure alot of things with
emacs.
It is worth the time to get to learn.
