The MLView project is putting together an XML editor for the GNOME desktop environment.

The MlView project is an on going effort to develop an xml editor for GNOME environment. It is written in C and uses the gnome libraries.

[MlView] A typical set of editor features are included, some of these are copy/paste, drag/drop, support for multiple document views, and graphical error reporting. Some XML specific features include an xml element/attributes search, tree-based element addition, support for namespaces, input validation, and auto-completion. The editor works with, and without an XML DTD.
