Default WYSIWYG Web Design

Of the WYSIWYG software packages that are available today, I only
know of one that creates "semi" standards-compliant code (but you
have to tweak the default settings).

I hand code my sites, but if you don't, and are using a visual editor,
which one do you use and why?

I use textmate, its briliant. I can't stand wysiwyg editors, like you said they very rarely do standards compliant code. I read a review in a magazine once testing which ones did standards code - dreamweaver came out top - just! lol

I mainly use Raw HTML as i can be reassured what i put down on the page will stay exactly the same & not converted as some wysiwyg editors do.

Depending on what else i have to do i some times use textile, markdown or smarty pants.

I hand code it all, except a few basic things like image positioning and link adding. For that I use dreamweaver cs3 as it is quicker
