• TERRIBLE SOFTWARE, DO NOT USE, CORRUPTED MY WORK

  hiltz0068/21/2006

  Pros

  At first glance seems handy to view well-formed XML docs.

  Cons

  IS BUGGY! Corrupted 2 days worth of work on an XML file I was generating. I save my changes regularly. But at the end of the day when I saved it added erroneous text and portions to the XML, and now my XML file cannot be trusted and must be re-done! I wasted 2 days of work because of this TERRIBLE SOFTWARE! WASTE OF TIME TO USE, BETTER OFF NOT USING IT AT ALL! USE TEXT PAD INSTEAD OF THIS!

  Pros

  Cons

  Summary

  This program is excellent if you are working with large complex XML files. The Tree view makes navigating complex files much easier. However the interface could be simpler, and there are bugs in the software, although none have as yet caused any major problems.

  Summary

  Doesn't support unicode. When loading a file containing unicode (eg. Chinese, Japanese, Arabic) characters, those characters will be replaced by question marks.

  Pros

  Cons

  Summary

  This can't be called an xml editor since all the other editors. (textpad, emacs, vi) has color coding. So this editor needs to have xml specific functions, and that work. Might as well stick with emacs.

  Summary

  First thing the program did the very first time I launched it was try to access the internet. Why would an XML editor need to do that? Hmmmm. Perhaps to check for update? Perhaps not. I for one don't like these programs that do what they want without confirming with the user what they plan to do.

  Summary

  It crashed when I tried to add an attribute. Tool tips would go a long way to make it more intutitive.
