You can also use the nXML mode available for Emacs to make it even easier to write in DocBook XML format. nXML mode provides context-sensitive editing using completion, real time validity error checking, syntax highlighting and indentation. All you need to do is install an RPM!!

Please be aware the nxml-mode for Emacs is quite new, so there are a few things that the advanced user might notice when using it with other documents types. If you keep an eye on the mailing-list, you can keep up to date with these, as well as ask questions. For more details, check out Section 4.4, “nXML README File”. |
To use nXML mode with emacs, you will need to install the nXML RPM available from Tim Waugh's website or the source from http://www.thaiopensource.com/download/. The source requires a lot more work to setup, therefore we will only be concentrating on the RPM version.
Information on where to get the source is available in Section 3.7, “Additional Resources”.
