Anyone who uses Movable Type will notice a few buttons above the entry window that easily let them do bold, italic, or underline. They basically insert the opening and closing HTML tag on any selected text within the window.

Why not have some macro buttons up there that you can program? If you frequently use strikethrough, different font colors, or different font sizes, or whatever, you should be able to simply set up your opening and closing HTML tags and use the hot buttons rather than having to type the tags in manually each time.

If they don't do it, one of these days, I'll have to edit the movable type interface manually, and do it myself.
