XMetaL
XMetaL, or XMetaL Author, is a software application used for creating and editing documents in XML and SGML. It has some features common to word processors, but is a native XML editor that can be configured to work with various standard and custom DTDs and XML Schemas. XMetaL was first released by SoftQuad Software in 1999 and is currently developed by JustSystems.
Uses
XMetaL has a user interface resembling a word processor, in contrast with other XML editors such as XMLSpy that are designed for XML programmers. XMetaL is used by both technical and non-technical writers, most often to develop technical documents, website content, newspaper and magazine content, and organizational policies and procedures. Government agencies also use XMetaL for tracking legislation.
Features
XMetaL includes features common to word processors, such as a spellchecker, a thesaurus, and the ability to track changes made to documents. XMetaL provides different views of a document, known as “Normal”, “Tags On” and “Plain Text,” which reveal the underlying element tags and other XML markup to varying degrees, and uses standard CSS files to style documents for display within the editor. A “Resource Manager” pane can be used to locate and insert items such as image files and frequently reused text fragments.

Dangerous Times
by: Sue MedleyWe are living in dangerous times
And all Gods children have learned how to fight
Shedding their young blood
Shedding their tears
They can’t go on living their lives in fear
They’ve watched their empires rise and fall
Ghostly reflections through crumbled walls
So many innocents tried to stand tall
Only to be knocked down, battered and scarred
Someone will conquer, and someone will die
And some of them will just turn their heads
And turn away, in these dangerous times
A bustle in the kitchen to get supper on
The radio is playing some familiar song
There’s a lover’s quarrel, with the TV on
They’re all unaware of injustice and wrong
Someone will conquer, and someone will die
Some of them will just turn their heads
And turn away, oh...
Don’t you think it’s time to tell a nation
This can’t be right?
Or did someone kill the white dove
In the name of justice, or sacrifice?
All stands quiet in Tienanman Square today
No sign of trouble, no flowers on the graves
No raging voices, no sign of change
No sign of anything
But their blood-stained message remains
We are living in dangerous times
And all Goas children have learned how to fight
Shedding their young blood
Shedding their tears
