The only thing that fits your specification that I know of is Emacs. There are nice versions that run on Windows. I use Meadow (Multilingual Emacs with ADvantages Over Windows). Fortunately, you don't have to do the scripting yourself (in Lisp) since freeware scripts (the main one is called psgml) for SGML, XML, and DTDs already exist and have font coloring and many other powerful authoring features. Learning Emacs can be a daunting prospect. Robert DuCharme has written a good introduction to these tools for people unfamiliar with Emacs and psgml and he has made it available on the Web in pdf format at: http://www.snee.com/bob/sgmlfree/emcspsgm.pdf Chris Gray Library Systems Technician University of Waterloo On Sat, 27 Feb 1999, Inanis Brooke wrote: > (this is the off-topic part, sorry everyone!) > I thought that's what you were talking about... on that color-codes the text > only on your display, but not the actual text file.
