'''HotDog''' is an HTML editor developed by Sausage Software in the mid-1990s.<ref>{{Cite book |last=Dvorak |first=John |title=Online! the Book. |date=October 2003 |publisher=Prentice Hall PTR |others=Chris Pirillo, Wendy Taylor |isbn=0-13-142363-0 |location=E Rutherford |page=347 |oclc=1063974877}}</ref> At the time of its development, there were only a small number of HTML editors available on the market (such as HoTMetaL) and HotDog gathered significant interest due to its ease of use.
The program was developed by the New Zealand Internet entrepreneur Steve Outtrim.<ref>{{Cite web |date=1996-07-01 |title=A SAUSAGE MACHINE FOR FUN AND PROFIT |url=https://www.afr.com/companies/a-sausage-machine-for-fun-and-profit-19960701-kazgm |access-date=2022-07-17 |website=Australian Financial Review |language=en}}</ref> In 2000, the ownership of the product was sold from Sausage Software and, despite still being called Sausage Software, is now run by a company unrelated to the Outtrim-founded Sausage Software.
