HTML.edit is an editor for the HyperText Markup Language, the text-based coding used for documents on World Wide Web (WWW). All HTML-coded documents created by HTML.edit are saved external to the editor as ASCII text files. World Wide Web servers follow HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP) and deliver on demand HTML documents to remote clients using browser programs like NCSA Mosaic.
HTML.edit is a standalone HyperCard 2.2 application and does not require HyperCard to run. It includes a lot of useful features such as a B&W or color palette with pop-up menus (senses your screen depth), multiple documents, master headers and footers, drag-and-drop editing (with HTML.edit already open), hypertext-style help, resizeable editor window, command-key equivalents for commonly-used codes, option-return for <P>, and HTML code indexing - displays all instances of the selected HTML code within your document.
It follows the HTML specification for naming conventions and implements most HTML codes, including lists, images, anchors and text formats.
