Unless your doing web pages for a living I doubt Quanta could be a 
"can't live without" kind of app. Although I use it every day for hours, 
my use is a hobby kind of thing. There are other applications I could 
use but prefer Quanta by far. I'm working on one page right now that I'm 
using Kate for [ transcribing some documents ]. Once I get the basics 
done in Kate I'll polish it in Quanta but for now I would rather not 
have to put up with Quanta complaining about the page being changed by 
another application.

Why am I using Kate???? [ you ask ]

Because it has a smaller screen footprint than Quanta and sits beside 
the document application better. And, I do all my HTML in text mode 
anyway. Never learned to use a WYSIWYG.
