As you can see it in these screenshots Open in a new window, XMLmind XML Editor is not a tool for programmers. Its users are generally technical writers.

XMLmind XML Editor is available in two editions: Personal Edition and Professional Edition. Personal Edition is free of charge, is restricted to non-commercial use and has fewer features than Professional Edition.

v5.1.1 (January 10, 2012): Allows to convert DocBook and DITA documents to Web Help. Several minor, yet useful, enhancements.
v5.1 (November 15, 2011): The new Compare tool will show you the differences existing between two revisions of the same initial document. This tool also allows to accept or reject some or all the changes.

The new Tools|Remark menu should be handy to use if you have to review or comment documents.

The two above facilities have a lesson of their own (including a 2:10 screencast) in our tutorial.

v5.0 (September 29, 2011): XMLmind XML Editor v5 aims to be a good tool for authoring highly modular documents: DITA maps, today's DocBook modular books and tomorrow's DocBook 5.1 assemblies, Web sites comprising a large number of XHTML pages, etc.

In order to attain this goal, we have added 3 new interactive tools to XXE: the "Browse Files" tool, the "Search Files" tool and the "Document Set" tool.

These new tools are showcased in "XMLmind XML Editor v5 Primer" (which includes a 3:30 screencast). Moreover, the "Document Set" tool has a lesson of its own in our tutorial.

Updated tutorial (June 20, 2011): Added 3 new lessons: Automating repetitive tasks by recording macros. Custom keyboard shortcuts. Easily create DocBook olinks.
v4.9.1 (June 15, 2011): A polished v4.9. Also contains several useful enhancements, mainly related to the support of XHTML, as well as important bug fixes.
New, comprehensive, tutorial (May 7, 2011): Except for the first few ones, this tutorial is organized in largely independent, short, lessons. Almost all lessons contain a short (less than 1mn) screencast.
v4.9 (April 18, 2011): Several enhancements, most of them related to validation and to link navigation. This release is in fact the low-level part of forthcoming version 5, that's why some important changes are not yet visible.
