Re: Lynx and Wordpress?

Hi Tom,
To insure I am following, there is a plug in called classic editor?
I may be able  to allow dreamhost  the chance to create a test environment 
for  me, they did offer.
Granted they use an older edition of lynx, but I do appreciate what you 
provide here.

She classic editor is very easy to use and in many cases I simply use lynx and if it is a large Chang pull it to vim and then save it back to lynx press tehe save button on the page and press on.  For things that need to be pretty I ask my wife for help as colors and image placement have little meaning for me.
