I don't know why this is so hard to find, but as they said in
that old Tom Baker Doctor Who episode, "The Quest is The Quest".
I'm on a holy quest for a WYSIWYG HTML word processor. It seems
like lots of other people would want this also.
On the hope that it does exist, and I've just not invested enough
time in searching, does anybody know of a WYSIWYG HTML word
processor?
My desires are:
- Basic word processing + the standard extras such as footnotes,
spell check, table of contents, etc
- Reveal Codes capability ala the old WordPerfect so you can
actually see what the underlying document structure is
- Uses HTML (or XML) as the markup language
- Real-time WYSIWYG, just like any modern word processor. (NOT
export and view separately!)
- Formatting controls like a normal word processor (NOT manually
adding HTML codes to get formatting)
I don't need all the super complex features of LibreOffice Writer
of MS Word, but holy-moly, why is this program missing from the
market? As far as I can tell, EVERY word processor out there
emulates the terrible, confusing, awful design concepts of MS
Word.
Anybody got any suggestions?
TIA!
Casey
