I like to use the XMLBuddy plugin under eclipse for editing XML, as it flows
everything nicely and does all the indentation just right, with one
exception, which is that it likes to format paragraphs with <para> and
</para> on the same lines as the text, like this:
<para> Here is some text that flows
on to the next lineand then again on
to another. </para>
Does this formatting break the standards for the documentation or cause a
problem for anyone, or can I check it in like this? Alternatively, does any
know how to make XMLBuddy treat <para> and </para> like any other tag?
I'm not familiar with this program, it sounds like a bug or ideally a feature that should be configurable. But yes, it does go against the guidelines and should be fixed before commit.

Philip
