HTML Wizard is a simple but useful tool that adds functionality to the Microsoft® Windows® 95 interface for HTML files. Specifically, HTML Wizard adds:

An Edit item to the Context menu (right-button click) for HTML files. This option will allow you to launch your favorite HTML browser and load in that file.
An HTML Document option to the list of file types under the Windows 95 Explorer File New option. This option will create a base (that is, minimum) HTML document.

HTML Wizard was built using Microsoft Visual C++™ version 4.0, the Win32® SDK, and the Internet Information Server SDK.
