XXE uses 0% proprietary markup, not even the slightest custom processing-instruction. "&__copyright__du7diawy;" is a reference to external entity "__copyright__du7diawy" automatically declared for you by XXE in the <!DOCTYPE> of the document. All this is 100% standard. The name looks a bit strange because it has been generated automatically. > If so, is there no standard we could follow instead?

If you intend to use XXE, simply compose modular documents as explained in the new section of tutorial. * If you want to force XXE to only use references to external entities, use the corresponding option in the Options dialog box, Edit Tab. But in this case, due to XXE limitations, you'll be limited to very simple modular documents. Example: book including chapters but not chapters including sections. * If you want to force XXE to only use XInclude, use the corresponding option in the Options dialog box. In this case, you can compose arbitrarily complex modular documents. The only problem with XInclude is that it is not yet supported by all XML tools. Once again when it comes to generating XML, XXE is 100% standard.
