Oh, they all do, and that's what I use mostly....but it's still silly to
have to learn a markup language to avoid using....a markup language.

yes, it's nice to have [wiki:LinkToSomething link to something] but <A
HREF="linktosomething.html"> link to something</A> isn't really that
complicated.

wikis are nice for uploading images and *creating* links, sure, but < b >
