I'll add my 2c for plugging Frontier. Up until very recently, I had
used it for all my website content processing. If you're on a Mac, it
integrates very nicely with BBEdit. I don't know much about the Windows
NT port (and it's only NT, not 95 or 98, AFAIK).
I punted Frontier a while back because it runs too slowly on my Centris
610 (admittedly, a 5-year-old 68040 machine), so I wrote a Perl-based
solution that uses the same templates. It runs much faster now, and on
my Macs at home (under MacPerl) as well as on my Sun at work.
I like that I can use circa 1993 hardware for real web publishing.
Leaves more money for Lego. :^)
