&gt; Have you ever wanted to have an editing program do something, but you don't
&gt; have the time or know-how to get it to work?
&gt;
&gt; I know that the LDP use SGML, but we think that when the tools are there,
&gt; the future will belong to XML. We have begun writing an XML editor for KDE
&gt; and would like to hear your ideas. There will be direct support for
&gt; DocBook, but the automated help should work for any DTD.
&gt;
&gt; Are there any things
&gt; you would like to see in an editor,
&gt; you think are great in the one you use,
&gt; or really irritate you?
Get a copy of WordPerfect Office 2000 for Windoze and use
the SGML editor - your editor should do at least as much.
Particularly important are a reliable macro capability and
layouts. Do them better than WP. But most of all, try WP.
There isn't any reason to single out XML for support - go
whole hog and do SGML. Write me off-line about automation
features.
Gary
Don't be afraid to try the competition, they've got ideas
you should.
