Re: [docbook] Re: XML Editors

[Jeff Biss <jeff at marco-inc dot com>]

I do like Wattle's XMLWriter. It's a nice product at a very good price. Their
support is good too. Most people seem to want freeware though. XMLWriter
seems to provide most of the functionality that Arbortext's Epic Editor provides.

There really shouldn't be much fighting over this. It is a matter of preference.
I know some people who insist on using vi in Linux/Unix. To each his/her
own.
