I'm not really concerned about making HTML. I really just want some
type of "tagged" language so I can see the tags and understand how they
effect the text. HTML or XML seems like the way to do this, but it can
be 100% proprietary tags, as long as I can easily read them.
My basic complaint with Libreoffice or Word is that it does stuff and I
haven't got a clue why it's doing it. (Word is really bad at this when
you are modifying someone else's template. Ugh!!)
