Re: [SLUG] Q) XML - is there a linux counter part to xmlspy

[Stuart Guthrie]

Eclipse with the free 'black sun' plugin is a nice XML formatter. It's
not as nice as XMLspy but does the job for me!

www.eclipse.org

Black sun is on sourceforge as are lots and lots of eclipse plugins.

Wow. You now have the dubious honour of reminding me why I don't use
IDEs. For those of you like me who hadn't heard of this thing, here's a
screenshot:

There are a couple of things around, but none of them look as...
enormous as that application. There's kxmleditor:

http://kxmleditor.sourceforge.net

and there's a gnome app called conglomerate:

http://www.conglomerate.org/

I don't use either of them, so I don't know if they'll be of any use.

And of course, emacs has some nifty features for dealing with XML.

HTH,

James.
