what you give is what you get

A WYSIWYG (pronounced "wiz-ee-wig") editor or program is one that allows a software developer to see what the end result will look like while the document is being created. WYSIWYG is an acronym that stands for "what you see is what you get". A WYSIWYG editor can be contrasted with more traditional editors that require the developer to enter descriptive codes and do not permit an immediate way to see the results of the markup. The first true WYSIWYG editor was a word processing
program called Bravo. Invented by Charles Simonyi at the Xerox Palo Alto Research Center in the 1970s, it became the basis for Simonyi's work at Microsoft and evolved into two other WYSIWYG applications called Word and Excel .
An HTML WYSIWYG editor, such as Microsoft's FrontPage conceals the markup and allows the Web page developer to think entirely in terms of how the content should appear. One of the trade-offs, however, is that an HTML WYSIWYG editor sometimes inserts the markup code it thinks is needed all on its own. Then, the developer has to know enough about the markup language to go back into the source code and clean it up.
