The lockergnome newsletter had this nice little download: Fass is a small post editor & automated post generator that lets you design and preview posts for online forums. It supports standard ubbcode and includes an automated, template-based post generator. Create your post, format it to your preference and then copy/paste the code into the board. Additional features include saving/loading of text, drafts and more. It can also be customized by webmasters and distributed to forum users.

you wouldn't need to use post preview, I guess.
Picture perfect penmanship here.

 I have occasionally lost long posts for some reason or another, but it seems like the extra time/hassle of a seperate app would give more chance for error and additional time not made up by the occasional lost post. It's probably useful for some tho

I write out all my long posts such as release announcements or other news in Word™ or UltraEdit™, then print them and proofread them and check them for accuracy. As I think I know UBBCode a little bit I feel ok without training wheels.
I do, however, agree that there are enough people out that with a large enough desire for a Fass type of thing to make it worthwhile.
Kind of like the HTML rich text editor active x addons some people mae for .classic and we put into Buzzcast.
