For data integration, XQuery support, defining pipelines, writing
schemas, or debugging XSLT stylesheets, I really like Stylus Studio. I
do work for the company that produces this, fair disclosure, but I
really think this is the best XML tool for programmers working with XML.
For writing documents, I agree with the people who like <oXygen/>, which
I frequently use for writing articles and specifications.
If you need a WYSIWYG editing environment, I still like my old copy of
XMeTaL, though I have no idea who owns it at this point or whether
anybody is doing new work on it. <oXygen/> does not give me that nice
WYSIWYG feature. Anyone know what's up wiht XMeTaL these days? Are there
any new editors that do the same job better?
I have not used the Serna product someone mentioned. I'm downloading it
now ...
