Yes, OpenOffice exports to HTML but I'm modifying an existing document and it looks strange.

Bluefish has tab autocompletion for tags ... type "<" to open a tag and you can choose from the dropdown. KDE3 had Quanta Plus, but I don't think it was ever ported to KDE4. Kate offers autocompletion in CSS at least, once you start typing the tag. You can have a browser open to check the results of your edits as an WYSIWYG solution. Otherwise, you may want to try Komodo-edit-bin: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=171944 (I've just added an ebuild for the latest 8.0.0 version.) -- Regards, Mick signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
