Uttered "Rodolfo M. Raya" <rodolfo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>, spake thus: > This page, from TLDP, provides interesting information: > http://www.tldp.org/LDP/LDP-Author-Guide/html/tools-edit.html We all have preferences about this, but I suggest http://www.jedit.org for a java-based not-crippleware alternative. It will validate against a custom DTD, unlike some of the tldp.org tools. After being a vi-guy for a few decades, jedit is now my XML editor of choice. It's also easily usable for a newbie. Cheers!
