Notepad?  Not mentioned in my message.  

The subject of my message was "A server allowing revisions 
to source Texts."  The objective is to find a way to 
archive the source files for an Oberon workstation so 
that revisions can be incorporated and published efficiently.  
The primary audience comprises Oberon workstations.

Web browsers comprise a possible secondary audience.  If a 
Web browser can display an Oberon source legibly, whether 
from a file or from a communication stream, is that 
objectionable?  Why?

I don't understand how that pertains to the objective. 
If I've missed the point, my apologies.
