It doesn't have spell check or clips. Those are the big lacks for me.

But there are some turbo charged ways of searching and replacing that are on the horizon that could save tons of time.

It doesn't behave like Sigil. It doesn't insist on perfect code, which is a good reason to run the book check often. It is much better than the rest at pointing just where you have a problem.
Thanks mrmikel. I went back and played around with it and I can see what you were saying. It's different than Sigil (and Sigil's warnings of what was wrong could be hard to find.) But with this though, if you don't complete your code, it just doesn't print the whole paragraph! (Yikes! Although I'm sure I'm exaggerating what happens.) It was good to see it though. (I don't know how I missed it before.) I'm getting more and more comfortable with it. And I don't know about its checking feature. It was telling me I had errors when that epub I was testing was cleared by EpubCheck. But I could always just check the epub more frequentlly at Epubcheck if I wanted. What about Tidy print and Pretty print (do I have the names right? The "cleaning" features in Sigil you set in "preferences"?) Does the Calibre Editor have anything like that?
