Well, yes, and I'd bet that's how all these programs under discussion got their start. (Stewart-Style Subliminal comment 1): "Download, save, open text editor..." (SSSC 2): "I was surprised to find visitor-tracking code when I wanted to read a simple article. Especially amazing was the sheer amount--it dwarfed the content." (SSSC 3): "It was a lucky break that html is plain text and has to be sent to me for my browser to render. It's source code. It's also why I hate Flash. I fear we will lose that feature soon."
