Hi Kevin, I have put together an XML Authoring Environment for Emacs (XAE, former TPE) that is very similar in concept to the JDE, namely to save Emacs users the considerable grief of finding, downloading, assembling, and mastering the pre-existing, independently developed components needed to turn Emacs/XEmacs into an effective XML authoring environment. The XAE integrates psgml, Michael Kay's saxon stylesheet engine, and Norm Walsh's Docbook dtd and associated stylesheets and adds a menu with options for displaying and applying stylesheets to XML documents and for displaying the Docbook and XAE user guides. The XAE has builtin support for creating Docbook instances but is by no means confined to them. I have been using the XAE over the last month to write XML documents at work and to convert the JDE doc to XML. It works quite well and offers a level of functionality quite close to commercial XML authoring tools such as Arbortext's EPIC. I plan to create a page for the XAE in the next few days where you can download the XAE. The distribution file will include everything you need for the XAE: psgml, saxon, and the Docbook DTD and stylesheets. The only holdup at this point is completing a quick start guide and installation instructions. I expect to have these done in a few days. I will post an announcement to the relevant lists as soon as the XAE website is ready. - Paul XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list -------------------------------------------------------
