Revision as of 10:05, 29 August 2009
Emacs has a nice xml editing mode called nXML, with syntax highlighting, movement commands to navigate through the XML (out of, into, across elements, etc.).
Note: since the dix-files can often get rather huge, syntax highlighting can make nXML a bit slow (at least if you're eg. planning on running a keyboard macro 10000 times). To speed it up, just temporarily turn off syntax highlighting with by typing M-x set-variable RET nxml-syntax-highlight-flag RET nil RET. Alternatively, use the dix.el function C-c H (dix-toggle-syntax-highlighting).
dix-mode
In svn there is a minor mode for editing .dix files, dix.el (or use svn co https://apertium.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/apertium/trunk/apertium-tools). It uses nxml-mode.
Usage:
(add-to-list 'load-path "/path/to/dix.el") (require 'dix) (add-hook 'nxml-mode-hook (lambda () (if (string-match "\\.dix$" buffer-file-name) (dix-mode 1))))
I use Apertium-dixtools-formatted dix, not all functions have been tested in the regular format.
The minor mode adds keyboard shortcuts C-c L and C-c R which make LR or RL restricted copies of <e>'s (use C-TAB to cycle between restriction possibilities LR, RL or none, C-c C creates a copy without modifying restrictions), C-c G which finds the pardef of a dictionary entry (and lets you go back with C-u C-SPC) and C-c S which sorts a pardef by its right-hand-side <r>. M-n and M-p move to the next and previous "important bits" of <e>-elements (just try it!). Inside a pardef, C-c A shows all usages of that pardef within the dictionaries represented by the variable `dix-dixfiles', while C-c D gives you a list of all pardefs which use these suffixes (where a suffix is the contents of an <l>-element). The space bar inserts a <b/> in <r/>, <l/> or <i/> elements (o/w a regular space).
Also, if you like having all <i> elements aligned at eg. column 25, the minor mode lets you do M-x align on a region to achieve that, and also aligns <p> to 10 and <r> to 44 (for bidix). These numbers are customizable with M-x customize-group RET dix. (Ie. there's no extra indentation function, but then nxml already has that.)
Relax NG-schemas
for validation in nxml-mode are available at:
(without these, XML is only checked for well-formedness by nxml-mode)
