Thanks Scott for the tip. It is remarkably like XML Notepad from M$. 
Only works on Windows, but it is small and to the point. They no longer 
support it but you can get it from various d/l sites (caveat emptor). 
Wonder if I can get it to run under Wine?

Here is one:

BTW, under windows I typically use Visual Studio. It has the nicest UI 
of any that I've used to this point. But no tree view. Instead they have 
a data view, which is a row and column layout, useful for database 
tables, but not very good for deeply nested stuff like XHTML.

I have a bone to pick with XML editors in general. There needs to be 
some enhanced paradigm for deeply nested content. The tree view gets 
wildly out of whack if you go very very deep into the content. Making it 
hard to navigate. You need some kind of zoom in/out tool. Where the 
closer nodes are exposed, and ones farther away are collapsed/hidden or 
otherwise obscured. You can get to those by panning some how.  To see 
what I mean, take a page in the DOM inspector in Firefox and open a 
deeply nested node.
