Relax.  Look at the CVS viewer, e.g. at: 

  <http://cvs.pdxlinux.org/viewcvs.cgi/website/_._NEW_DOCUMENT_TEMPLATE.html?rev=1.4&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup>

and this is what you'll see:

Looks more-or-less like text to me.  

If you are suffering Emacs-phobia, you can ignore the "%# ..." stuff,
I think.  Those are comments wrapping emacs local variables for the
file.  Emacs magic.

See the "faq.html" for something with some existing content.

None of this message should be construed as taking a position who
