I've almost always done my XML by hand. Sometimes, when I want to have a tree structure available to look at and want validation, I'll use a free XML editor like EZXML. For those with money, there's XMLSpy. I think that there are probably enough XML editor/ide options out there in the world that another might be redundant.
About the only reason I'd see for another one would be if maybe it were custom-made to give all sorts of help for existing projects from Apache, JBoss, etc. -----Original Message----- From: ewitness - Ben Fowler [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, May 30, 2002 2:12 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: How do you edit your XML files? (I was tenpted to send this also to the xml-dev list which I also read, in the sense of admire the post that swoosh way over my head, as there has just been a short thread on XML editors; but I cross-post no more often than I spam). A curious ommission from the Apache's XML project is an Open Source XML editor. Perhaps the majority of people here use emacs/PSGMLS. But there must be many who do not wish to. vi users for a start. A 'proper' XML editor/IDE would be very useful for examining XML and FO files, parsing and validating them and processing with XSLT. Is there already a project in existence that does this? Would people here contribute to one? I am interested in The XML Editor, one that would run on the platforms that I use MacOS and KDE, and also ones that coworkers use, (MS Windows 98). If so, how should it be licensed, so as to be compatible with (as a minimum Xerces and Xalan) both now and in the future? Any thoughts or advice gratefully received.
