Re: Lynx and Wordpress?

Hi there,
  I agree with ease, my personal site is in html, so  when I have to change 
things  like a phone number, I can just use an editor.
However, this site will be new.
dreamhost provides the WordPress tool, but they also just provide regular 
ftp for uploading.
If I could find  someone willing to do the work, I would just  pay them 
within, reason.
Everything will be local, as in in my dream host workspace.  just desire a 
tool, and since WordPress is offered, thought I would ask.
Keeping in mind that I use shellworld, although I do have links for DOS on 
my computer, any easy creation tool that is not WordPress  then?
