Fine - which tools are available for writing SGML/DocBook on Linux+xBSD or Windows? - Emacs and alike tools? - Any WYSIWYG editors? - Any *fast* syntax verification system - and what is being made in general At the moment I write a lot in Emacs - but my mum would not try that!!! Many companies don't accept DocBook - why? Can't we do better??? What is the future for SGML/DocBook versus XML/DocBook - again also regarding tools, the work efford going on at the moment etc. Best regards Peter/A DocBook user for several years now. -- Peter Toft, Ph.D. [pto@sslug.dk] http://www.sslug.dk/~pto "You don't win a battle by asking, `Will we win?'
