Howdy,

I'm working on a database of Jack Vance's SF universe (aka 'Gaean Reach') 
using MySQL and Perl/Tk. This so as to run the same scripts on both BSD and 
Win32. (So far so good...)

Alas, the project is so enormous that for the same ammount of work as 
entering data manually I could mark up whole novels in XML. (They are already 
digitized in MSWord...by an army of volunteers.) 

Anyone out there working in XML on NetBSD? Have you any cool XML tools to 
recommend for NetBSD? (I run KDE, if that matters.)

All I found of promise seemed to be Apache/Cocoon -- which was fairly 
overwhelming to this newbie. I'm not sure at all if it was what I'm looking 
for or not.

Would be nice to start small: an editor (tag-colorizing, pray?), a validator, 
maybe a parser. It would be so very fine if I did not have to boot to Win32 
except for compatibility checks.

Thanks,

Gan

PS -- As always, once I how to for myself, I'll write a how-to for others. So 
you won't have to answer this same query twice.
