No. That is an HTML editor. I was talking about programs to take care of
internal consistency issues like using the same string 20 times in a set of
documents.

I heard that too. It does nothing that a good (free) emacs mode like
sgml-mode or psgml can't do. It doesn't let you put in characters like
a-umlaut and so on. I have hearsd of some other shortcomings, too. Plus of
course it is a cut down copy of the commercial version, which is itself a
sawn-off version of their expensive Author/Editor SGML package which is
corporately priced ;-)

Me too, for short documents.
