The set of packages you have installed do not include any specialized
modes for XML files. One option would be to install the psgml package,
see
http://www.xemacs.org/Documentation/packageGuide.html#Installing_automati...
for info how to use the packages UI to install it.
On the other hand, I gather the XEmacs you have installed is from the
new Windows setup kit; Vin, I think it could be a good idea to include
psgml in it.
I keep hoping for more feedback on the package list! :-)
The new test kits (available in
ftp://ftp.xemacs.org/pub/xemacs/windows/testing) allow the installer
to choose among the following packages:
auctex, bbdb, c-support, calc, cc-mode, debug, dired, ecb,
ecrypto, edebug, ediff, edit-utils, efs, eieio, elib, emerge, eshell,
footnote, fortran-modes, fsf-compat, gnus, hm--html-menus, ibuffer,
igrep, ispell, jde, latin-euro-standards, latin-unity, locale, lookup,
mail-lib, mailcrypt, mh-e, mmm-mode, mule-base, net-utils, os-utils,
pc, pcl-cvs, pcomplete, perl-modes, prog-modes, ps-print, psgml,
psgml-dtds, python-modes, re-builder, reftex, ruby-modes, sasl,
scheme, semantic, sgml, sh-script, sieve, sounds-wav, speedbar,
supercite, texinfo, text-modes, textools, time, tramp, vc, vc-cc,
vhdl, viper, vm, w3, x-symbol, xemacs-base, xemacs-devel, xetla,
xslide, and xslt-process at a total download cost of approximately 20MB.
The kit that Glenn installed did not include optional packages and did
not include psgml, as you observed.
