<<Unless you're really hard core and you use a UNIX-based text editor like PICO to write your code.>>

For my modest web page, I used pico along with fetch and photoshop on a Mac. When I rewrote my page from scratch (our server died and I decided it needed an overhaul anyways), I used Netscape Composer to layout the images. It actually did a fairly decent job. It is nice for some of the tedious tasks of figuring out how much space you need between things as you just drag the image to the place on the page where you want it. I then went into the source code modified all of the other things I wanted to do. I use pico or vi to update it. My page isn't too fancy. It has frames, but no java as I find java applets/beans to run too slow on many machines. Overall, I've found that programs like Composer and Front Page are a good starting point, but are still very limited and produce pages that look very ordinary. I haven't tried BBEdit, but I haven't felt the need to update my page lately. Thanks for the comments.
