This is the first release of html-writer-mode, a fork of Nelson Minar's
(by now rather dated) html-helper-mode.

This is a fork of html-helper-mode originally by Nelson Minar intended
to be up-to-date with W3C HTML 4.01 Strict and HTML authoring practices
in the "post-browser-wars" era (from 2001 onward). I have also modified
and made available the tables.el addon by Joe Hildebrand.

I released this because I hacked on Nelson's original work for so long
for my own purposes and I wanted other people to benefit from it as
well.

Basic one-minute installation:

su
cp {html-writer-mode,tempo}.el /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp
^D
cp ~/.emacs ~/.emacs.orig
cat >>~/.emacs
(autoload 'html-writer-mode "html-writer-mode" "Yay HTML" t)
(setq auto-mode-alist (cons '("\\.css$" . css-mode) 
        auto-mode-alist))
(setq auto-mode-alist (cons '("\\.html?$" . html-writer-mode) 
        auto-mode-alist))
(setq auto-mode-alist (cons '("\\.or[bh]$" . html-writer-mode)
        auto-mode-alist))
^D

The third line above is optional if you don't use Orb (HTML preprocessor
originally written by Craig Berry). If you don't need to be root to
write to /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp, you can skip the su and the
^D after it.

If you'd like to use tables.el as well:

su
cp tables.el /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp
^D
cat >>~/.emacs
(autoload 'hwm-table "tables" "Tables extention to hwm" t)
(add-hook 'html-writer-mode-hook 'hwm-table)
^D

If you decide not to use html-writer-mode after all, assuming no further
changes in your .emacs that you want to keep:

mv ~/.emacs.orig ~/.emacs
su
rm /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp/{html-writer-mode,tables,tempo}.el
^D
