That's the thing...I do not have X on my (only) FreeBSD box at work, so
I have to do desktop stuff on my windows pc. While I do have gvim win32
(yay!), I would really like a higlight-select tag kind of editing (Not
unlike word or dreamweaver[1])...Oh well, I guess I can dream.

[1] There's another thing I might try...try to force dreamweaver to eat
xml docbook.
