Visual editing

With the use of XML as a native format for NMR data, standard XML editors and viewers can be used to make this structured information easier to handle.

Below you see an example of Xeena an XML editor/viewer freely available from IBM.

In the picture below, the BioMagResBank/XML file bmr2000 has been opened in a tree display which allows focussing on the interesting parts of the data. Every text node in the tree structure can be edited by clicking on it. Besides the data file can be validated against a document type definition (DTD). From this DTD, the editor can determine which element can be added by the users at which part in the document.
