If I see a gap between two lines of text, and that gap vanishes when I commit the document to the web or save it to a file, then it’s not ‘WYSIWYG’. But this has been my experience with 100% of such editors.

I propose a new acronym to replace ‘wizzy-wig’:

WYSMBWYGIYLBIACWBFRTWNBMCTYSSIYUC

What You See Might Be What You Get if You’re Lucky but it Almost Certainly Won’t Be For Reasons That Will Never Be Made Clear to You So Suck it Ya Ugly Cunt

Not as pithy, but at least it’s accurate.

    I’m oddly envious 😄 Then I realize I’d have nothing to do with the output and just get little sad.

      I still make stuff with it occasionally, but it’s now limited (due to the aged tech) to linear video clips. Still fun, though.
