I must admit that I was feeling touches of anti-html evangelism the other day. :-)

Well, I'm not some priss who's averse to salty language, however it's defined.

I know vi and ed, too, and part of my setup for building my website is a big-ass sed script for simple substitutions. (Not to mention m4 macros for more complex substitutions.)

That's what I figured. Also, you were frustrated because this plainly isn't your specialty and it *is* hard to find current, accurate information. I've been running a personal website of some kind on various hosts since 1996 and I've learned a few things along the way so I didn't mind helping.

Maybe, but I resent the necessity of masking. I mean, I like the *Persona* video games but being a Persona user IRL is just a bit tiring and not nearly as badass. (I can't actually summon Satan all over some asshole's smartphone.)
