Hi Again,
I looked into this some more this morning and it looks promising. It looks
like the catalog file is just a mapping of the external URI references to
local ones to keep namespaces from clashing.
Here is an example that comes with komodo, it's in a directory with the xul
and xbl dtds
catalog.xml
<?xml version='1.0'?>
<catalog xmlns="urn:oasis:names:tc:entity:xmlns:xml:catalog"
prefer="public">
<public publicId="-//MOZILLA//DTD XBL V1.0//EN"
uri="xbl.dtd"/>
<system systemId="http://www.mozilla.org/xbl";
uri="xbl.dtd"/>
<uri name="http://www.mozilla.org/xbl";
uri="xbl.dtd"/>
<public publicId="-//MOZILLA//DTD XUL V1.0//EN"
uri="xul.dtd"/>
<system systemId="
http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul";
uri="xul.dtd"/>
<uri name="http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul
"
uri="xul.dtd"/>
</catalog>
There is also a file called moz.soc, which I don't understand the purpose of
yet.
PUBLIC "-//MOZILLA//DTD XUL V1.0//EN"
"mozilla/xul.dtd"
SYSTEM "http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul";
"mozilla/xul.dtd"
PUBLIC "-//MOZILLA//DTD XBL V1.0//EN"
"mozilla/xbl.dtd"
SYSTEM "http://www.mozilla.org/xbl";
"mozilla/xul.dtd"
But it seems like a similar top level file might enable autocompletion of
lzx as well (at least in Komodo and probably in some other editors). I'm not
sure whether the relaxng or dtd would be better to use, but I'll probably
try the dtd as I don't really understand rng. How meaningfull the
autocompletion will be, might be up for grabs though.

Hi d~l,
This doesn't relate specifically to the catalogs, but I think that Komodo
might be a good basis for a Lzx IDE. One thing that seems to trip up a lot
of editors is the inability to mix languages in one file. The newest version
of Komodo supports this though and supports creating your own mixtures.
Since Lzx is basically xml + javascript I think it might be pretty easy to
get Komodo to work pretty well.
The other avenue that I've done a lot of thinking about is creating a web
based editor in lzx for lzx. If folk were to go that route, I would
definitely help with it.
