Subject: AW: [docbook-apps] "WYSIWYG Writer" Friendly Editing Tools
I've been looking for WYSIWYG editors for a while. I also likex XXE a lot, but the lack of entitiy support was blocking it. We are now using Serna from syntext. It's not perfect, but it support xinclude and entites. -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Sean Wheller [mailto:sean@inwords.co.za] Gesendet: Mittwoch, 14.
