Well I agree I don't want to learn about fp's own options for 
its own html commands nor the commands themselves, 
but I don't view what I described (using only :cr :tx and :cl) 
as using an intermediate layer.  I just view that as just 
a different way of outputting the file.  Maybe I liked using 
the html :tx because I could still see more lines on average 
in the fp editor.  Usually when I'm using writeline, I wind 
up having an extra line to output what was assigned on the 
previous line.

I do plan on writing any new code with just open and writeline, 
and as I work back thru older code - changing it to that 
method.  I've already been doing that for a while.
