Re: Ris: [xsl] suggestion for an xml editor, please?

["Christophe Marchand cmarchand@xxxxxxxxxx" <xsl-list-service@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

In Oxygen, as soon as the file is a XML file (starts with an openning 
element, ends with its closing element), you can select some text, cut 
it, write your starting tag (editor automatically writes the closing 
tag) and paste text inside.

And I'm not sure you have to cut / paste it...

Have a look at Oxygen, askfor an evaluation license, and do some tests !
