Agreed, but only for the case of asking WORD  to export a formatted 
document to HTML. Please don't EVER do that.

But it has become difficult to find a simple text editor for use in 
the Macintosh world. Codemonkeying  requires a program that doesn't 
mind creating and storing plain old ASCII text that's required by a 
web server delivering an HTML document to a browser.

WORD can do that and it's no harder to use for that than is Apple's 
TextEdit which really wants to use RTF and that's no better than .doc 
for preparing HTML documents.

Best is a real text editor - MPW, BBEdit, SimpleText - come to mind 
but they either cost money or don't work with OS neXt. If WORD is 
there anyway go ahead and use it. Just save as TEXT. Don't use the 
export to HTML feature.
