Dear Mike and Jeff Thank you for your answers. I guess that I have to let go of the wet WYSIWYG dream ;) Before I knew anything at all about xml / xsl parsing I learned the technology with support from XMLspy. I have switched over to Linux and that xml tool is not available anymore. I do all java development in JEdit which is a text editor with plenty of fine plug-ins. Yesterday, I found out that I can easily run Xalan from the Console plug-in and generate the output in a new buffer. This is nothing revolutionary but I keep at least all development in one tool, which is nice. I generate the raw xml files from Maverick the same way Jeff does. JEdit also have a XML plug-in that checks if xml files are well formed plus some code aid features.
The bottom line seem to be: <<when you know what you are doing, a text editor is the only tool you need.>> /johan Jeff Schnitzer wrote: > I'm interested to know what you find.
