I have no idea what professional web designers use, but I did many web pages 
using html in a regular text editor.

It was awful.

Using Ddoc literally doubled my productivity at creating web pages. Furthermore, 
I can easily change them. This came in really handy when David redid the look & 
feel.

For example, I am able to create the C++ manuals for the Kindle and the 
digitalmars.com web pages from the exact same source text, simply by using a 
different set of .ddoc macros.

(Although you can supposedly convert html directly to Kindle books, in reality 
you'll discover you need to put out different html than you would for web display.)
