Even better. The tags are little pointy boxes with the
tag's name, so there's no way they'd be mistaken for
text. And you get a little context menu containing a
list of valid tags. And a pretty tree view of your
document. And a menu button to validate it.

Err... running
vi foo.sgml; docbook2pdf foo.sgml; xpdf foo.pdf
repeatedly is pretty quick. Then again, I have
