You are absolutely right. However, it would be nice if we could use any 
existing web authoring tool to create the web pages to be served by the 
CoCo. This is where I'm trying to go with this. It wouldn't be that 
hard. A converter program could be written that would convert HTML code 
into BASIC09 code (e.g. |<HTML>| becomes |PRINT #port_path,"<HTML>"|).
