I'm pretty sure you can set up the XML formatter in Eclipse to mimic your suggestions. I'll look into it tonight and report back.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Apr 15, 2010 at 12:22 PM, Dan Allen <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:dan.j.allen@gmail.com">dan.j.allen@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

What I want to avoid is reflows of the XML because that makes it virtually impossible to track changes. So far, vim gives me the maximum control over that. Eclipse loves to reformat the whole document in ways i don't agree with. I've tried other docbook editors, and they seem to have their own way of formatting too. If we can find a way to avoid reflows and use something better than vim, I'm all ears. Vim isn't the greatest at editing XML anyway.</div>
