Subject: Re: [docbook-apps] VirtualBox DocBook 5.0 VM
[NOTE: I don't normally top post, but I believe the original post below should have been CC'd to the DB list.] I took your advice, Stefan, and changed wording about security. I also mentioned the new editors, and I installed jedit and kate on the VM (as a Linux distro, vim was already installed). Questions: 1. Which editor do you use the most for xml, xsl, and DocBook? 2. If it uses plugins, can we get a list of the ones you have installed?
