huh?  doesn't that mean that the person who is running the tool doesn't use
HTML or other code, not the person that wrote the tool?

I'd have to agree that it's not really applicable though since it talks
about it running offline, and about selecting widgets for the site and stuff
along those lines.  my first glance thought it sounded a lot like TT's
offline mode, but even that has markup in it.  this seems more like it's
designed for making brochure sites and stuff like that.  nothing with any
depth.
