I once wrote C# code in MS Word because the only other option was Notepad.

I was there, Gandalf, 3000 years ago, writing my first html code in notepad. And I was happy about that.

It was school work. All I needed was some proper visual indentations and a monospaced font.

Right, so Notepad.

The indentations in Word won't be "proper;" they're based on physical dimensions, not characters.
