Hello, The information found at
http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/user_faq.html#source_view doesn't work on the Mac. When running the macro, different things will happen depending on which editor is specified: - if the editor is a terminal editor (like emacs), the command will terminate with an error message saying that standard input isn't a tty - if the editor is a GUI application with a command line interface (like SubEthaEdit (SEE), started with the 'see' command), XXE will wait endlessly for a response, while nothing is ever reaching SEE - if the external editor is not specified, but the file is opened in the default editor using the command 'open', the file will indeed be opened by the default editor for the file type, but XXE will not be notified when the editing session is over, and thus you will loose all changes unless the document is manually reloaded This behaviour happens irrespectively of whether XXE is started by double clicking the icon, or with .../Resources/Java/xxe. Environment: XMLEditor 3.0 Standard Edition MacOS X, 10.4.2 Java 1.4.2 (latest update from Apple) Default shell: bash I have not been able to figure out a working solution, but would be very interested in one, as it is a nice feature:-) Best regards, Sjur N. Moshagen
