There are plenty of 'heavyweight' tools such as XmlSpy, which are good for prodding around in xml docs - but often (very often in some cases!) you just want to quickly open and browse an xml doc, and have it pretty printed. Possibly with some basic search functionality (textual is probably fine). I usually use a browser such as IE of Firefox for this, but they tend to break down for larger file sizes (I'm often opening files in the 10s of MBs or more). I have some ideas about how such a viewer might be implemented, so I'm sure there must be something out there that can do it, but my google-fu is letting me down. So I thought I'd put it to the hive-mind that is SO to lead the way. Just came back to this question as the requirement came up again and saw your response.

Best Xml Editor For Mac

This tool seems to be exactlty what I was originall looking for! I haven't yet tried it on huge docs, but 5Mb docs certainly open in a fraction of a second, and pretty-pretting in about a second by just hitting the F8 key. From what you say the performance should scale well into the tens of Mbs. May have some GB docs to try it with later. That will sort the men from the boys;-) – Aug 31 '09 at 18:19 •.
