How to Add Tags to NoteTab Light
Install NoteTab Light, and you've got a robust text editor and an HTML editor that handles tags as well. Fookes Software, NoteTab's distributor, provides a free version of its NoteTab application named NoteTab Light. This program has many of the features found in the commercial version. It also contains a powerful tool named Clipbook that allows you to add any HTML tag to a document by simply double-clicking the tag.
