That was basically my take on it -- why ingrain structure/syntax
only applicable to filePro in my brain when, by writing the HTML directly
via export/writeline, I can ingrain the actual HTML structure/syntax.

I think I'll continue to stay clear of the filePro HTML commands (unless
someone comes forth with a comment that changes my mind).
