Quite a number of tools in U2. Carl wrote most (all?) of them. The
one I use most is HTMLTAG or HT, which generates any tag, both
 and  versions, and DeFines the end tag while
leaving the cursor between the tags, so you can enter intervening text
or alternatively MoVe the end tag where you want it.

I like the SPL file idea for writing HTML. Pity that you can't do
much more with an SPL file than expand abbreviations, i.e. you can't
make it DeFine text or move the cursor backwards -- it can't perform
XPL... HT isn't hands-off like the SPL file, but it does a lot more.
