"Out of
curiosity, what's wrong with the Message box for composing
replies?"
I just find the
TinyMCE
(the "message box" editor)
applet clunky and annoying. In most cases it takes several
iterations to get the formatting to look "just right".
For the way I work, Frontpage allows for a faster/smoother
workflow. With FP, I've managed to autopilot much of what I do.
"What do
you gain by switching to an entirely different application,
writing out your post, copying, switching back again, and pasting?
That's not the way things work
here. I've created several scripts/macros that handle
formatting, data import/export, and several other functions.
When I'm done composing a post, I have a "shoot" button
that manages all the copy, paste, and related functions. So
there's none of the convoluted machinations that you presume.
I originally started using FP
this way when I was responsible for managing several Community
Server based forums, which have god awful response times.
Since that time I've found it the quickest/easiest way to deal
with most boards/blogs, while maintaining a consistent look.
