Actually PC Magazien and Macworld did extensive
testing of all the available presominant software on
the market. Few of the softwares I make use of have a
simple learning curve. FYI I make use of my SimpleText
notepad and Netscape to preview here in the studio at
home for the most part. I dont even own Dreamweave
<yet>, but have used it on sites where I worked and
had no problems with it.
The question was asked by someone about editors and it
was answered.
Who can make use of these packages? The millions who
buy them and keep them on the market. They do hae
their uses and if one is comfortable with scripting
and code -- then no worries. Plenty of people seem to
be getting by without knowing the first thing about
HTML and advanmced programming. I personally dont
agree with that -- but thats a part of the reality of
this business.
Again read the article in PC magazine or as was also
suggested -- look for their site online.
