Has anyone got a good SIMPLE XML Editor out there today?
The one I had has dissapeared from the web, and so has the source code from my system and memory.
It needs to be (preferably) self contained, and useable by 15+yr old Students.
thanks

Maybe this will help: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_XML_editors.
The post which lead me to the above recommended "Sublime Text" noting it didn't appear on the list.
By the way, what Puppy?

Thank you for that, it reminded me that it was an extension for geany that had it, and that is still available as part of the geany-plugins extension package.
As far as the puppy version, it was something I and my then (2013) students did with woof2. I named it 'puppy opensuse' a week or so ago when it surfaced again while cleaning up and archiving some 40gig ide drives content I had just uncovered. I want to play with it further and we may use it in 2019 as a midyear holiday class coding/scripting project. Opensuse keep their rpm package databases in xml, i've sucessfully converted them before, but only the x86 built to any sucess as woof2 was not x86-64 then. I want to look at the changes opensuse have done since to see if it's practical to do a POC (proof-of-concept) with the quirky part of woofE (quirky/easy). I do have a opensuse2ppm translator that sort of works on 15.0, but whether it works completely I don't know until I look inside the source xml rpm's.
Whether it goes past the students learning to read code and coding themselves is actuallty irelevant at this point, sorry. I may just ask someone if they want to take it over at that point. Another problem is opensuse have 20 pacman and a 'few' other repositories inter-working in parallel across the program groups (per version) so ppm 'may need' extending or reworking/modernizing above the five default visable or and a total rework may be necessary if it got past the POC stage to make it usefull. A rough count would need to be about 32 to cover all groups necessary (including our puppy's).
