I'm sort of a newb myself and I use Linux Mandrake 10.0.
Most HTML editors seemed to make extra code and such. I mean, I could do
that myself. :) And still do.
But there is a Suped-up notepad editor called Kate that I use now that
comes with the OS. It has syntax hi-lighting when you give a text file an
html extension. If I run into a problem I hunt around the net for
resources, read the newsgroups and such.
As for a newsreader I use Pan and it does collect message
bodies for off-line use.
