[WEB4LIB] HTML editor for large files?

[TMGB]

I'm not sure which version of Dreamweaver your using but in 2.0 you can
tell it pretty much to leave your code alone if you go and set
preferences under the edit menu.  If there are  specific changes its
making, you may want to send that to the list and myself or someone else
might know a fix.

As far as big files, I think Dreamweaver is also part java applet so it
may be slow.  If they are really large files, maybe they should be
divided into smaller files for quicker editing and so the person viewing
won't have to wait for a long load time and a lot of scrolling.
