XmlShell The Ultimate Lightweight XML Editor - Future Plan
Future Development Plan
XmlShell The Ultimate Lightweight XML Editor is an on-going project. Our intention is to continuously develop it to keep up with users' demands. The following is the major features we plan to implement in the future versions of XmlShell The Ultimate Lightweight XML Editor:

* Project Manager
To bundle a group of files (XML, XSL, or any types) into a project, so users can easily open, navigate and work with related files.
* XPath Search
XPath is the standard way to locate nodes in an XML document. We want to incorporate it into XmlShell The Ultimate Lightweight XML Editor.
* Common Protocol Integration
For example, SOAP.
* Database Integration
Many DBMS is capable to use XML queries and generate XML outputs. It would be nice to integrate XmlShell The Ultimate Lightweight XML Editor with those DBMS.
* Regular Expression Search
Regular Expression is a powerful pattern matching expression, especially useful for searching text.
* Batch Processing
We want to have a way (maybe command line) to do batch XSL transformation, validation, formatting, ...etc.
* User-Defined Table Views
To let user define their view structure that best fits their XML structure.
* Full Intelli-Sense
To provide the best popup list for all the views.
* XML Schema Support
* Validation (Delivered in v.1.1)
