Hello,

You are quite right. I have heard of HTML being the poor man's SGML. If you
want to get some SGML feeling, get a tool like Softquad HoTMetal
(http://www.sq.com/).
TH> So, I want to know more about SGML. Could anyone recommend a
TH> readable,
TH> understandable book about basics of SGML?
A friend of mine (Andreas -dot- Baumert -at- twh -dot- msn -dot- sub -dot- org) suggests:
Turner, Ronald et al.: Readme.1st - SGML For Writers and Editors.
Prentice-Hall 1995.
Greetings from Germany,
Alexander
