Richmond, Kompozer is not currently being updated and it won’t run on macOS 10.12 due to security settings. The replacement application I have found for Kompozer is called BlueGriffon which is available at http://bluegriffon.org/. It is cross-platform and the “unlicensed” version is fairly

Another vote for Rapidweaver, but the extras do add up. Coffeecup Software also has some excellent tools. Freeway is oriented more to graphic designers and can be a little clumsy compared to more modern tools like Rapidweaver. Macaw is no more. On Mon, Oct 17, 2016 at 7:39 AM, Matthias Rebbe
