To use WordPerfect with EAD, one needs to build an ead.lgc file as
well import the various associated entity files that go along with the
ead.dtd. While one can build the necessary ead.lgc file for
WordPerfect using the software that come with WP, it is simpler just to
download the ead.lgc that file has already been compiled by our friends
at Berkeley and which is available on the ftp server at
library.berkeley.edu.
Almost instant EAD authoring.
One can simultaneously produce a "pretty printed" version of the EAD
document by mapping ead tags to WordPerfect styles. This is a bit more
complex.
It is also a validating parser.
