I forgot that many people use long filenames with spaces (because I never use long filenames myself). OK. we'll see what we can do. But once again, I don't know if this can be done with the standard Java File Open dialog box. >> I suggest to use the ``File Explorer/Finder'' window of your system >> and to directly drop files into XXE. > > > I use Far under Windows and bash under Linux. I can't drop files into > XXE :) Just one trick: with a recent XXE, use the Options dialog box, General tab and check "Use a unique instance of XXE". After that, if XXE is in your $PATH, typing: $ xxe "my long document name.xml" & will open the document using the instance of XXE already running. Try it and you'll like it.
