You can install debian LXDE which comes with openoffice as standard, or otherwise i think there is an Documents to go, office docs viewer, and editor (i think if you pay for it) but not sure how well it works...

Microsoft doesn't have office suite for Maemo.

Here you go:
Freoffice (based on KOffice)
http://maemo.org/packages/view/freoffice/

Documents to Go (not free)
http://www.dataviz.com/products/documentstogo/maemo/
http://maemo.org/packages/view/dtg/

Abiword:
http://maemo.org/packages/view/abiword/

Docbook (unusual open-standard XML/DTD documents)
http://maemo.org/packages/view/docbook/

OpenOffice in Easy Debian
http://wiki.maemo.org/Easy_Debian

Some miscellaneous editors:

Source code editors:

Vim (command-line):

Leafpad:

Maemopad:
http://maemo.org/packages/view/maemopad/

Nano:
http://maemo.org/packages/view/nano-opt/
http://maemo.org/packages/view/nano-tiny/
http://maemo.org/packages/view/nano/

QEmacs:

I don't have Easy Debian because I don't like to put large and heavy bloated packages onto a device which doesn't have infinite battery.

I don't have office documents on the device. Just some files like epub, html, txt. All editing is in leafpad/vi. Ideally, there would be no word files on my computer, either.

But I don't know an HTML editing program which wouldn't create bloated HTML mark-up and which would turn images into data URI so that the whole document was one HTML file, without images in separate folder. I could do it in Notepad, but it would take too much time for large documents.

Ugh, this is why I hate reinstalled bloatware. Dataviz's Documents to Go just about everyone knows about on here. But I only saw one person mention FreOffice, the extras-devel version (and if it hasn't made it down to extras yet, wth?) of which works just as well as any basic office document editor I know of. Granted, it depends on your needs.

ANYWAY, Wikiwide, isn't there PyEditor (or something, python source code editor), and one or two other source editors in the repos? There's also a Qt based Emacs clone...

No syntax highlighting or any fancy things, so source code editing can be a pain, but still. Unless I don't fully understand what you need.

Also, doesn't an HTML file by nature have no support for having images inside the file? If some other program shows it to you in one file, as far as I understand it, it's merely hiding the images from you, because the image data isn't storable within HTML as far as I know.

I have Page Up, Page Down, Home and End mapped to keyboard ;)

I edit HTML, XUL, JS and CSS files, in vi and leafpad.

HTML and CSS do support having images inside file, with help of data URI.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_URI_scheme
In Fennec nightly, CSS can have something like this:

element{
background-image: url(data:image/svg+xml;charset=utf-8,%3Csvg%20width%3D%22100%25%22%20height%3D%22100% 25%22%20version%3D%221.1%22%0D%0Axmlns%3D%22http%3 A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%3E%0D%0A%0D%0A%3 Cellipse%20cx%3D%22240%22%20cy%3D%22100%22%20rx%3D %22220%22%20ry%3D%2230%22%0D%0Astyle%3D%22fill%3Ap urple%22%2F%3E%0D%0A%0D%0A%3Cellipse%20cx%3D%22220 %22%20cy%3D%2270%22%20rx%3D%22190%22%20ry%3D%2220% 22%0D%0Astyle%3D%22fill%3Alime%22%2F%3E%0D%0A%0D%0 A%3Cellipse%20cx%3D%22210%22%20cy%3D%2245%22%20rx% 3D%22170%22%20ry%3D%2215%22%0D%0Astyle%3D%22fill%3 Ayellow%22%2F%3E%0D%0A%0D%0A%3C%2Fsvg%3E);
}

And it will work.
HTML can have something like:
<img src="data:image/svg+xml;charset=utf-8,%3Csvg%20width%3D%22100%25%22%20height%3D%22100% 25%22%20version%3D%221.1%22%0D%0Axmlns%3D%22http%3 A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%3E%0D%0A%0D%0A%3 Cellipse%20cx%3D%22240%22%20cy%3D%22100%22%20rx%3D %22220%22%20ry%3D%2230%22%0D%0Astyle%3D%22fill%3Ap urple%22%2F%3E%0D%0A%0D%0A%3Cellipse%20cx%3D%22220 %22%20cy%3D%2270%22%20rx%3D%22190%22%20ry%3D%2220% 22%0D%0Astyle%3D%22fill%3Alime%22%2F%3E%0D%0A%0D%0 A%3Cellipse%20cx%3D%22210%22%20cy%3D%2245%22%20rx% 3D%22170%22%20ry%3D%2215%22%0D%0Astyle%3D%22fill%3 Ayellow%22%2F%3E%0D%0A%0D%0A%3C%2Fsvg%3E"/>

(I know Markup Languages way better than Programming Languages:)

The question wasn't about code editors, at first it was about editing .doc documents with a what-you-see-is-what-you-get editor. Granted, I can unzip .doc document, edit XML files in vi and zip it back, and it will probably work later in Microsoft Word and OpenOffice.org. But most people (including myself) would prefer to find other way.
