There's a routine, HT, to embed tags. You command, for example,
HT UL, and it embeds "
", with the end tag DeFined
(ready to MoVe or delete). It works for any kind of SGML markup
(HTML, XML, etc.). There's no test for validity of the tag. If you
request HT Yo' mamma!, it'll do it; it don't care. This,
of course, is a virtue.

With a little keyboard-file programming, you can create a dedicated
HTML|XML|SGML command entry key, analogous to func XC for Xy
commands. Here's the key assignment (delete any internal carriage
returns):

nn=NOXHJM2,.,P,r,s,K,b,d,A,r,g,Q2x,m,a,c,r,o, ,[,S,X,5,0,CO
[,V,A,$,C,L,],],COJ,M,(,2,.,h,t,),NO
