An Excellent XML Editor for Ubuntu: XML Copy Editor!

When it comes to editing XML files under Ubuntu we can of course use the Gedit text editor. But if you deal with a lot of XML codes, then Gedit is not the kind of the app that's gonna fully satisfy you. Although we cannot blame Gedit since it's primary role is to act as a text editor but for the serious coders, it's just not enough.
