Apart from elements and entity references, the following types of markup are supported by epcEdit:
The content of a marked section is displayed between marked section tags that contain the status of the marked section.
Marked sections are inserted into a document by using the command from the menu. Any text that is selected will be moved into the marked section.
The content of a marked section can be edited like any other part of the document with the restrictions imposed by the type of the marked section.
A marked section is deleted from a document by selecting a region containing the marked section and deleting the selected region or selecting from the menu. The same operation is available by right-clicking on one of the marked section tags and selecting from the context menu.
If the content of the marked section is allowed to appear outside of a marked section, it is possible to remove a marked section by selecting from the menu or by right-clicking on one of the marked section tags and selecting from the context menu.
Comments in a document are shown by a pair of comment tags.
Comments are created with the command from the menu. Any selected text will be become part of the comment.
The text of the comment can be edited like any other text, but it is not possible to insert any markup inside of a comment.
Comments are deleted by selecting a region containing the start and end tag of the comment and deleting the selected region or by selecting from the menu. The same operation is available by right-clicking on one of the comment tags and selecting from the context menu.
If the content of a comment is allowed to occur outside of the comment, the comment tags can be removed by selecting from the menu or by right-clicking on one of the comment tags and selecting from the context menu.
Like comments, processing instructions (PIs) are displayed by a pair of PI tags. The beginning of the PI text appears in the start tag of the PI and the end tag of the PI is empty.
PIs are entered or modified with the and from the menu.
PIs are deleted by selecting a region containing the start and end tag of the comment and deleting the selected region or by selecting from the menu. The same operation is available by right-clicking on one of the PI tags and selecting from the context menu.
