[Year 12 IPM] Web Editors

[Laurie Savage]

I used to use the older version. It's much faster than the Java version. 
Is there a link to it on the website? If there is I can definitely 
recommend it, its very configurable.

BTW: I like the author's CareWare concept, very green, very new age, but 
very reasonable!
