I didn't realize that nothing could be done unless something was "so problematic." Small things are scoffed out of town - AFTER mere mention of them is blown out of proportion by the scoffers.

3. Sigil DOES have a quirky display. But I guess that's because it's free.

4. FREE? I made my donation before I ever posted here. I guess that's so problematic too.

You're simply unwarrantedly rude, defensive, and, in this sphere, ignorant. Most of the people on this forum have actually been at this 20-30 years, myself included. You have yet to give ONE good reason why this should be changed, or why it caused you ANY type of problem, or what would be achieved by changing it. You used a program you don't understand, to create a filetype you clearly don't understand, and you're angry because it doesn't "save as" html, when you don't understand what it DOES do. Then, when everyone endeavored to a) explain WHY it doesn't "save as html," and b) find out what difficulty you encountered saving as an ePUB, you instantly launched personal attacks on everyone here.

Because you don't understand what it DOES do, or why it does it, or why changing the entire basis of the program so you can "save as html," you're having some type of public tantrum, and want it "fixed" when it isn't broken. Everyone here, believe it or not, is pretty good about listening to problems and coming up with all sorts of solutions, so if you had bothered to act like an adult for five seconds and explained WHY "saving as epub" created an issue for you, somebody would have jumped in to be helpful. Maybe your problems are the result of your stroke, but whatever they are, I'm certainly not wasting any more time trying to help you. Maybe somebody else around here has valuable time to waste trying to help someone as unbelievably hubristic as you, but I don't.
