The real documentation of XXE is found here:
http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/documentation.shtml

The online help is just the reference of menus, toolbars and dialog boxes.

How to create a configuration for XXE (including the XML catalog trick)
is explained here:
http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/configure/configure.html.

I've already done that for you (see below) but if you are curious you
can look at what I've done.

I've created a simple configuration for OSIS Core. It works fine except
that it lacks a CSS style sheet. Therefore, when you'll open an OSIS
Core document you'll see the tree view. I just hope this will give you a
quick start.

This configuration is available from this download area:

* osis_core_config.zip is contains the configuration
* osis_core_config.xxe_addon is a pointer to the configuration for use
by XXE's download manager.

There are *2* ways to install it.

[1] Manually. Download the .zip with your Web browser and unzip it in
<XXE_user_preferences_directory>/addon/ (on Windows, it is something like
C:\Documents and Settings\Kurt\Application Data\XMLmind\XMLEditor\addon\).

This creates a directory called "osis_core_config" which contains the
configuration.

That is "dir /W C:\Documents and Settings\Kurt\Application
Data\XMLmind\XMLEditor\addon\osis_core_config" should list something like:
---
catalog.xml
osisCore.2.1.xsd
osis_core_config.xxe_addon
osisCore.xxe
sample.xml
text.xml
xml.xsd
---



[2] OR Using "Options|Install Add-ons". Before that you need to specify
to the add-on manager that configurations are also found in
http://www.pixware.fr/_download/KurtAndrews/. For that:
  [a] Use Options|Options. Select "Install add-ons" section.
  [b] Use the "Add..." button which is at the left of the "Download
add-ons from these servers" list.
  [c] Replace what is suggested by:
http://www.pixware.fr/_download/KurtAndrews/osis_core_config.xxe_addon
  [d] Click OK.
  [e] Now you can use Options|Install Add-ons. "A configuration for OSIS
Core" should be listed by the dialog box.
  [f] Click on the corresponding "Install" toggle. Click OK and restart
XXE as asked.

After that, open one of your OSIS Core documents or use "File|New" "OSIS
Core|Text" to create a new "Text".

There is nothing more to do that what has been explained above (and this
will break nothing at all).
