About The Arachnophilia HTML Editor

Though in some ways a dying breed, Arachnophilia HTML Editor still strays true to its maker's principles in a world changing around it. The old days of the web, when it was dominated by computer geeks, intellectuals, and early adopters, was in some ways a lot simpler place than now. Most content on the web and the internet in general was free and contained little or no ads. Software too, in the early stages of home computers was often freely written and distributed, when people bought a computer they expected the software come along with it in the purchase price.

Those days are long gone as we are now in the era where everything and everyone is online, advertisements are often needed in order to keep web content free like most people demand for it to be. Software too has also changed as it matured; most programs now carry a price tag or ads to generate revenue to support the makers. There are some, perhaps noble, software developers in the word who try to keep alive the old spirit of "freeware" though. One of these develops, P. Lutus develops and supports the amazing and yes, free, Arachnophilia HTML Editor.

So there has to be a catch right? Well you are partly right. Arachnophilia HTML Editor is freeware, in that it is free and contains no ads or requirements to be bought later. However, its license agreement is referred to by Lutus as "CareWare." What Lutus wants in exchange for his product is something in return. No he does not want a trade or even a "donation." He simply asks that his users "stop whining" for even as little as one hour. Lutus himself admits though, "Telling modern Internet users to stop whining is like telling them to stop breathing - it seems unrealistic and inhumane."

Even so this is a small price to pay for the power of Arachnophilia HTML Editor. Being based on the Java platform, the program can run on almost any standard OS. And possibly more important, Arachnophilia learns things from you. You tell Arachnophilia how to behave. If you don't like how a toolbar button acts, simply right click it and edit its contents. There is no Microsoft program at any price that can do this. Arachnophilia HTML Editor writes in XHTML by default and is the perfect tool for a personal page that features a picture, mp3, or other simple content. If you want a simple, basic HTML editor that is not bloated with unnecessary content Arachnophilia is right for you.
