It is available for Linux, too, so I downloaded and installed the rpm. Very interesting. I looked at your page, and it does a nice job with the Greek letters. Then I pointed it at my page, and it does not display gifs well, nor does it do Javascript. But, I like it as an html editor. I usually do all my html by hand because html generators generate too much stuff. They are specific where I never meant to be specific. This one works fairly well, though. [snip]
