HoTMetaL was an early commercial HTML-authoring software, released in 1994 by SoftQuad Software of Toronto, Canada. Based on the SGML engine of SoftQuad Author/Editor, HoTMetaL was released with a free version (HoTMetal Free) and a professional version (HoTMetaL Pro). There was also a "light" version. It received PC Magazine's Editors' Choice Award in 1995 as well as a variety of other awards. However the port to the Mac platform was regarded as poorly executed.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Getting Warmer: HoTMetaL PRO 2.0 )〕 HoTMetaL went through several incarnations from versions 1 though 6. The Macintosh version survived until at least version 3.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=HTMLbits From the Expo )〕 Eventually the product line was discontinued as an HTML editor, although the user interface lives on in XMetaL, a commercial XML editor. The editor had several views (including text and WYSIWYG), most-notably though was the "Tags-On" view. This provided a WYSIWYG-like view of the page being edited with overlay icons showing where the code tags started and ended. This view is still used in the XML editing module of Adobe InDesign. On 15 March 2002 the Corel Corporation acquired SoftQuad, although the Corel web site has no reference to HoTMetaL or any other web development tools.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110201211941/http://www.hotmetalpro.com/ )〕 ==The name== The capital letters in HoTMetaL spell HTML. The term comes from hot metal typesetting which involves melting alloys into the shape of letters so they can be used by Linotype machines to print words on paper. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「HoTMetaL」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
