Whirlwind Guide (Steve Pepper)

The HTML version of Steve Pepper's"Whirlwind Guide to SGML Tools and Vendors" is probably the best online reference tool for commercial SGML software; readers are encouraged to consult it as a primary source. Information on SGML and XML software is organized by: (1) tool and resource category; (2) product name; (3) vendor name, and (4) service providers. In print form, theSGML Buyer's Guide (by Charles F. Goldfarb, Steve Pepper, and Chet Ensign) presents much of the same information (and more); seethe bibliographic entry for details.

The creator and maintainer of the Whirlwind Guide is:

Updated January 1998. See theannouncement from Eila Kuikka for the public availability of a revised reportSurvey of Software for Structured Text. This report, available in HTML (hypertext) and Postscript format, surveys some 207 software tools that claim to support the processing of structured documents. This publication updates the survey which reviewed 89 software packages, completed in 1994. Most of these software tools are SGML/XML compliant or aware. Description, contact information, references, and prices are listed for each software package. The database entries are accessible via alphabetical (name) listing, by software 'type' (in eighteen categories), and by price. This revised and expanded 1998 edition of theSurvey is authored byEila Kuikka (Department of Computer Science and Applied Mathematics, University of Kuopio, Finland) andErja Nikunen (Nokia Telecommunications, Finland). In HTML format:http://www.cs.uku.fi/~kuikka/systems.html, and published also as a technical report of the Department of Computer Science and Applied Mathematics, University of Kuopio, Finland.

[Description from the 1994 edition, retained here for historical purposes. "This list [3 parts in 3 disk files: A-E, F-M, N-Z] is a part of a report published in Finnish as a technical report of the Department of Computer Science and Applied Mathematics, University of Kuopio, Finland. The aim of the report was to give a brief overview of electronic text and its processing by computers. The main part of the report is a section that contains a short description and typical features of 89 systems. This English summary contains only that part of the report and our aim is not to update this list later." Seethe summary page;part1 A-E,part2 F-M, andpart3 N-Z.]
