Yes, they all do it. I have even seen comments mentioning
that a page was composed with vii (obviously hand inserted).
Which reminds me, whenever I use Applix, Netscape
Composer etc. I always open the file with vi and clean it up -
remove comments and all the extraneous <font> tags. Most machine
made HTML could do with a clean up. Doing this will greatly
reduce file size and therefore download time. Some
composers/editors are worse than others in this respect. Looking
at HTML source on the web can be illuminating.
