BW only came with a page or so of tags, but I've been adding to the
tagfiles for a long time now...  :)  It of course doesn't permit
multi-line tags either... unless one does an end run of sorts... ;)

I often write down my own recipes in only straight text, as it fits more
on the filecard that way...  I know... it doesn't go easily into the
recipe programs, though that's not not been an issue for me, since I
don't do any of that (yet, anyway...)

Ah, but... she was from the Ladies' Aid Society... bet they didn't
believe in adding the hard stuff...  :)
