Does anybody know of a good shareware or freeware program that converts text into HTML? Nothing fancy, I just need it to put paragraph breaks in. (This is why my website never gets updated, because I hate coding.)

ETA: and while I'm asking questions, a fic one. The character Jonathan Woodward played in Firefly - is his name spelled Tracy or Tracey? Google brings up pretty even numbers of matches for both.

That produces great horrible bloated HTML files though. *shudders*

Not really. It only adds end of paragraph coding and an HTML page header. I cut my teeth programming in the early 80s using such languages as Cobol, Basic and even assembler languages. I taught myself HTML in a month. I feel why spend time sweating the basic code when you can use your time better for other things. Too many people over-code.

Huh, your Word must be different from mine, which adds every paragraph, style, language and font tag known to man in every other sentence, and trebles the file size. I generally write my fics and stuff in txt format, and at the end go through and manually paste a < p> tag at all the line breaks.
